Share October 12, 2010 8:36 a.m. EST Topics: politics, international (foreign) trade, business, macro economics, economy, business and finance, international organization, United States AHN News Staff New York, NY, United States (AHN) - Canada is waiting for the Tuesday vote of 192 nations to see whether the country wins a two-year term as a member of the powerful United Nations Security Council. There are two seats vacant, but three contenders. Aside from Canada, eyeing the prized seats are Germany and Portugal. The new members would belong to half of the 10 non-permanent council members, while the other five have veto powers and are permanent members. Canada is still considered a strong contender for one of the two empty seats because of Ottawa’s strong economy, long UN track record and substantial economic and political support for the UN. Since the UN has 192 member-nations, the winners must secure two-thirds majority or a minimum of 128 votes to win a security council seat. However, observers said Canada’s bid may be placed at risk with the announcement by Canadian International Trade Minister Peter Van Loan on Monday of a move to create a stronger trade relationship with Israel, which could lose votes from Arab and Muslim nations. Van Loan has just returned from a two-day visit in Israel where he held exploratory talks on expanding the Canada-Israel Free Trade Agreement. The deal seeks to create new sources of jobs, growth and prosperity for the two nations following the doubling of two-way merchandise trade between Canada and Israel since the FTA was implemented.
