US backs 2 permanent seats for African nations on the UN Security Council
Briefly

"The United States announced Thursday that it will support the addition of two new permanent seats for African countries on the powerful U.N. Security Council and a first-ever non-permanent seat for a small island developing nation."
"U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Linda Thomas-Greenfield made the announcement in a speech, calling it a follow-up to President Biden's announcement two years ago that the U.S. supports expanding the 15-member body."
"While Africa has three non-permanent seats, that doesn't allow African countries to deliver the full benefit of their knowledge and voices. This is why the U.S. supports creating two permanent seats for Africa."
