Q. Which country is to chair the Taliban and Libya sanctions committees and the Counter-Terrorism Committee of UNSC?
Answer:
India
Notes: India has been asked to chair three important committees in the UN Security Council. India has just begun its two-year tenure as non-permanent member of the powerful 15-nation Council.
The Taliban Sanctions Committee (also known as the 1988 Sanctions Committee), the Libya Sanctions Committee (also called the 1970 Sanctions Committee) and the Counter-Terrorism Committee are the crucial committees.
