Obama backs permanent seat for India on Security Council (Ed Henry and Sara Sidner, 11/07/10, CNN)

In another major sign of growing ties between India and the United States, President Barack Obama on Monday backed a permanent seat for India in the U.N. Security Council.

"In the years ahead, I look forward to a reformed U.N. Security Council that includes India as a permanent member," he said in an address to the Indian parliament.

The statement came as Obama made a wide-ranging address that envisioned closer economic and security ties between the United States and India, standing "shoulder to shoulder" with the world's largest democracy.

...they should get China's seat. Brazil should get France's. Australia gets Russia's.
