The 2019 United Nations Security Council election was held on 7 June during the 73rd session of the United Nations General Assembly, held at United Nations Headquarters in New York City. The elections are for five non-permanent seats on the UN Security Council for two-year mandates commencing on 1 January 2020.
In accordance with the Security Council's rotation rules, whereby the ten non-permanent UNSC seats rotate among the various regional blocs into which UN member states traditionally divide themselves for voting and representation purposes, the five available seats are allocated as follows:
Two for Africa
One for the Asia-Pacific Group[1]
One for Latin America and the Caribbean
One for the Eastern European Group
The five members will serve on the Security Council for the 2020–21 period.
Notably, St. Vincent and the Grenadines set a new record as the smallest ever Security Council member.[2] Both St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Estonia were elected to the Council for the first time.
