Moreover, when you combine the populations of China and India, it accounts for one-third of the world's population.
If the United Nations resolutions were based on the "population ratio that can be seen as the ultimate democracy," China and India would be able to dominate the United Nations.
China and India have become important countries in terms of population, economic power, and culture.
China has a population of approximately 1.4 billion people and is rapidly developing as an economic powerhouse. It is a global leader in manufacturing and trade, and it places emphasis on infrastructure development and technological innovation.
On the other hand, India has a population of approximately 1.3 billion people and continues to experience economic growth. India possesses global competitiveness in information technology and service industries, and outsourcing is thriving. Additionally, India's culture and religion are diverse and rich, with a historical heritage dating back to ancient times.
Both countries are geopolitically important and have a significant impact on international relations and regional stability.
China is in conflict with Western countries over territorial disputes in East Asia and the South China Sea, economic policies, and human rights issues.
Meanwhile, India grapples with its relationship with Pakistan and conflicts in the Kashmir region.
Furthermore, China and India face social challenges and disparities resulting from population growth, environmental issues, and political constraints.
In summary, China and India have become major nations that attract global attention.
Within the next decade, both China and India could become economic powerhouses on par with the United States.
What's more, when you combine the populations of China and India, it accounts for one-third of the world's population.
If UN resolutions were to be based on the "population ratio that can be seen as the ultimate democracy," it would be a significant development. China and India would be able to dominate the United Nations.
In this world where "anything goes," it's not entirely unimaginable.
In the first place, the reform of the United Nations is being called for currently.
The fact that countries with populations in the tens of thousands and countries with populations exceeding one billion have the same voting power in the United Nations goes against the "individual rights-focused liberalism."
If populous countries like China and India were to request that UN resolutions be based on population ratio, what would we do?
After all, it's a valid argument, and it would be difficult for the United States and Western countries, who cherish "freedom and democracy," to counter it. As an alternative, there is the option of basing voting power on GDP ratio, but countries other than China and India would strongly oppose it.
For Japan, a country with a declining population and a declining economy, either option wouldn't make much of a difference, which is regrettable.
