When did Pakistan begin its two-year term as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC)?

Correct Answer: A. January 1, 2025

The Pakistani national flag was installed in front of the United Nations Security Council chamber, as the country began its eighth term as a non-permanent member (2025-26) of the 15-member body. Pakistan on January 1, 2025, began a two-year term as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). Elected in June to replace Japan, Pakistan now occupies one of the two Asia-Pacific seats on the UNSC. It will preside over the council in July, a key opportunity to set the agenda and foster dialogue.
