@dwnews: Germany campaigned for years — but still lost its bid for a UN Security Council seat. The defeat is raising questions about its global influence, timing, and foreign policy choices. Was this just a late start — or a deeper shift in global alliances? #dwgermanpolitics

Red Carpet :

Germany does not deserve to be part of UN security council due to their support of the Palestinian genocide 🇵🇸

tev93727 :

Lost to Portugal and Austria

tomwaite915 :

Germany could argue that it has a special responsibility to the Jewish people, but not to a state that is committing a genocide. There is a clear and obvious difference. That’s why the world rejected Germany’s participation on the security council. This is clear and obvious.

comment :

The United Nations General Assembly elected Austria, Kyrgyzstan, Portugal, Trinidad and Tobago, and Zimbabwe to the UN Security Council. These five countries will serve two-year terms starting January 1, 2027, and running through December 31, 2028

dblackskin :

Merz is a one term Chancellor.

G-7 :

even UN itself has lost values and credibility. nobody cares about UN.

Vjshan Mugam :

Anyway what's the purpose of a United Nations Security Council? It needs reforms. Until and unless the veto powers of the 5 countries are not contained it's basically a waste of time to have a security council elections.

DanWilson :

Accountability....

shadow911 :

seagull406🇵🇹 :

Portugal is in 🇵🇹

DW News :

Germany, the world's third-largest economy, says it was late to start campaigning for the seat. It was last on the UN Security Council in 2019-2020.

dipesh ramaswami :

un security council just going to be western europe and america?

Faisal Almohaimeed 🇸🇦 :

Did you know that Saudi Arabia won the seat and then immediately withdrew and relinquished it in 2013 in protest against the double standards within the Security Council, the Council's inability to protect Syrians, and its failure to resolve the Palestinian issue.
