Beside’s O just mentioned what every US president since Clinton has expressed regarding expansion of the UNSC-vague suppor.
vague suppor=vague support.
"And as two global leaders, the United States and India can partner for global security-especially as India serves on the Security Council over the next two years. Indeed, the just and sustainable international order that America seeks includes a United Nations that is efficient, effective, credible and legitimate. That is why I can say today-in the years ahead, I look forward to a reformed U.N. Security Council that includes India as a permanent member.
If you are a permanent member of the UN Security Council, you have a veto.
