In this contribution to the Bulletin 2021, Fabien Merz focuses on the United Nations Security Council. Switzerland has a good chance of being elected for the first time as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council for the 2023/24 period. According to the author, the seat is a historic opportunity to contribute to peace on the international stage. In order to contribute profitably to this body, which is dominated by the permanent members, Switzerland can benefit from the experience of other smaller members elected into the Security Council.
