Its composition has remained unchanged even when the membership of the United Nations has increased from 50 to 193 Membership. This Article objective examines the Security Council composition since the UN foundation and observed that the only change was effected in 1965 when the non permanent members was increased from six to Ten, This Article focuses on the representatives of the World regions using the empirical and doctrinal sources of information. It concludes that if the recommendations given are adopted, the Security Council would attain the main primary role of the maintenance of international peace and security.
