The answer is B Rotation.
Article 30 of the United Nations Charterstates that the Security Council is empowered to establish rules of procedure, "including the method of selecting its President". [ 1 ]The Security Council has established the following method of selecting the president: the presidency ROTATES monthly among the state members of the Security Council. The ROTATION takes place in alphabetical order of the member states' official United Nations names in English.
The main leadership position in the SC is its President. The presidency of the SC is held in turn by the members of the Council in English alphabetical order of Member States for a one-calendar-month period. The President presides over the meetings of the SC and represents it in its capacity as a UN organ.
take note that the security council does not have a chairman rather it has a president (presidency).
It is the General Assembly that has a chairman and this chairmanship position is held for one year and rotated among member-states.
The chairman of the UN Security Council emerges through *2. Rotation*. The presidency rotates monthly among the 15 member states of the council in alphabetical order based on their English names. This rotation ensures that each member state takes turns leading the council and coordinating its actions.¹ ²
This system allows for a fair distribution of leadership responsibilities and enables each member state to emphasize issues important to them during their tenure. The rotating president is responsible for calling meetings, approving agendas, and representing the Security Council before other UN organs and member states.
