United Nations adopts Pact for the Future

Công LuậnCông Luận23/09/2024


The pact, which also includes an annex on achieving a responsible and sustainable digital future, was adopted without a vote at the start of the two-day Future Conference. The agreement comes after about nine months of negotiations. “We are here to bring multilateralism back from the brink,” Mr. Guterres told the conference.

Secretary-General Guterres has long pushed for the conference and the pact, which covers topics including peace and security, global governance, sustainable development, climate change, digital cooperation, human rights, gender, youth and future generations. It sets out some 56 broad actions that countries have pledged to achieve.

The “Pact for the Future” reads: “We recognise that the multilateral system and its institutions, with the United Nations and its Charter at its centre, must be strengthened to keep pace with a changing world . They must be fit for the present and the future – effective and efficient, future-ready, fair, democratic, equitable and representative of today’s world , inclusive, interconnected and financially sustainable.”

“Today, we commit to a new beginning in multilateralism. The actions in this Compact aim to ensure that the United Nations and other key multilateral institutions can deliver a better future for people and the planet, enabling us to deliver on our current commitments while rising to meet emerging challenges and opportunities.”

Global crises have highlighted the need to reform the United Nations and overhaul international financial systems. These challenges include ongoing wars in Ukraine, Gaza and Sudan; lagging efforts to mitigate climate change; widespread sovereign debt problems; and concerns about unregulated technological development.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Vershinin criticized the negotiations and adoption of the treaty. Russia failed in its attempt to introduce an amendment - supported by North Korea, Syria, Nicaragua, Belarus and Iran - that would have stated that "the United Nations and its system will not interfere in matters that are fundamentally within the domestic jurisdiction of any state."
