Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe said here on Sunday that Africa should be allowed to have a permanent seat in the United Nations Security Council.
Mugabe said he hoped Africa should have the permanent membership of the Security Council so as to play "a full part" in safeguarding global peace and stability.
The Zimbawean president was referring to a planned meeting on Monday between Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and African leaders on the reform of the Security Council at a session of the Fifth Tokyo International Conference on African Development, which started here Saturday.
