China on Thursday called for a greater representation of developing countries, in particular those from Africa, in a reformed UN Security Council.

"In the reform of the Security Council, priority should be given to the greater representation of developing countries, in particular African ones," China's UN Ambassador Zhang Yesui told an informal plenary of the General Assembly.

With developing countries accounting for the vast majority of the UN's 192 member states, the composition of the Security Council can no longer reflect the political reality of the United Nations, he said.
