 In South Africa now, the UN General Assembly has elected Albania, Brazil, Gabo, Ghana and the United Arab Emirates to the United Nations Security Council for a two-year term starting on January 1 next year. All five countries run on a post for a spot on the 15 member body which is charged with maintaining international peace and security. They will replace Estonia, Niger, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Tunisia and Vietnam to ensure a geographical representation set to be allocated by original groups. But even if candidates are running on a post in their group, they still need to win the support of more than two thirds of the UN General Assembly. They have obtained the required two-thirds majority and the largest number of votes, Albania, Brazil, Gabo, Ghana and the United Arab Emirates are elected members of the UN Security Council for a two-year term beginning on January 1, 2022. I congratulate the states which have just been elected members of the Security Council. I congratulate the states which have just been elected members of the Security Council and I thank the tellers for their assistance in this election. This concludes our consideration of Sub-Item A of Agenda Item 118. The General Assembly will resume its consideration of Agenda Item 30 entitled Report of the Security Council. Meanwhile, Iran has regained its vote in the United Nations General Assembly after the United States enabled Iran to use funds frozen in South Korea to pay some 16 million dollars it owed the world body. Iran lost its vote in the 193 member General Assembly in January because it was more than two years in arrears. It owed a total of more than 65 million dollars but paid the minimum amount needed to regain its vote. Iran was able to vote in the General Assembly and Friday to elect five new members of the Security Council.
