And I am counting on India\u2019s continued support to ensure that the Organization remains relevant and capable of helping the world to find solutions to current challenges.\u201d The two also discussed the fight against terrorism, poverty and youth radicalization, as well as the role of regional organizations in the international system.<\/p><p>Upon meeting the Minister for External Affairs, the President-elect thanked her for inviting him to visit India. Their talks then focused on Security Council reform, revitalization of the General Assembly, terrorism, the Sustainable Development Goals, migration, climate change, investing in youth and sustaining peace.
