The claim
By defeating India with 38 votes to 18, Pakistan has been elected Vice-President of the United Nations Anti-Terrorism Security Council.
Original review summary
Pakistan was appointed Vice-Chair of the UN Security Council Counter-Terrorism Committee for 2025 on 4 June, alongside France and Russia. The review says the appointment was reached by Security Council consensus, not by defeating India in a vote.[S1]
Additional context
The review says the 38–18 vote refers to a different election: Pakistan’s November 2023 election as Vice-Chairperson of the UNESCO Executive Board. [S1]
