Namibia has reiterated its support for Africa's common position on reforming the United Nations Security Council, calling for two permanent and five non-permanent African seats and the abolition of the veto power. 

If the veto is retained, Namibia insists it should be extended to all Council members. 

Namibia addressed the United Nations Security Council on the situation in the Middle East, including the question of Palestine, stating that it cannot accept a world order where some people's freedom is conditional and others' suffering is normalised.

Namibia has called on the United Nations Security Council to move beyond expressions of concern and adopt concrete actions to support the realisation of the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination.
