External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar arrived in New York Tuesday to preside over two signature events on counter-terrorism and reformed multilateralism being held under India’s Presidency of the UN Security Council, before the curtains come down this month on its two-year tenure as elected member of the 15-nation body.
