Summary/Abstract: Of the five non-permanent members who will join the UN Security Council (UNSC) in 2019, particular activity may be expected from Germany, which would like to be seen as representing the interests of the EU, and South Africa, which seeks greater influence of African states and international organisations on UN activities on the continent. The presence of both Germany and France on the Council will provide Poland with an opportunity to revive tripartite cooperation.
