China has insisted the United Nations designating anyone a terrorist is a serious issue. China made the statement while defending its move to block India's bid to get the UN to declare Pathankot attacks mastermind Masood Azhar a terrorist. Would it have taken the same stand had terrorists struck in China?
China has been playing into the hands of Pakistan and acting as per the latter's dictum on issues concerning India. Being one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, China has taken advantage of its veto power. Times have changed. The system of having five countries only as permanent members of the UNSC must change too.
