India’s Permanent Representative to the UN Asoke Mukerji noted the issue of “increased burden sharing” being talked about in the UN during a special event titled ‘IBSA Fund Experiences in South South Cooperation: Innovations, Strengths and Joint Vision for the 2030 Agenda’ yesterday.

“First, we in the Fund do not look at our cooperation with partner developing countries as a ‘burden’. We do not attach strings to our cooperation, unlike the traditional approach of North-South cooperation,” he said.

Mukerji said India’s national approach on such cooperation has stressed on the concept of “sharing”.
