India may be asked to replace France on the Security Council. The security counsel is doomed as long as one country can veto 14 others. IMHO, the five permanent members should have to have 3 of them vote to enact a veto.

"India may be asked to replace France on the Security Council."
Five is not a magic number. However I would favor Japan, if the number were to stay as five, and France get booted off.
The question arises : Why boot off France?
Because she caused the near destruction of the UN. Those who value the institution, will understand.
France went back on the agreement of res. 1441.

Nobody has the authority to kick off a permanent member of the security council. That’s why they’re called “permanent.”
We have the power to remove one nation from that club – our own. And we should, but won’t, do that.

Is that possible? They are a permanent member. Is it more plausaible that India will join the current members?
