#UN Security Council
The race for the next United Nations Secretary-General is entering a fiercely competitive stage. The international community hopes to find a “captain” capable of forging consensus and building trust among countries with differing strategic interests, thereby steering the United Nations (UN) through turbulent time while strengthening the multilateral organisation's voice on global issues.
Minister Counsellor Nguyen Hai Luu called on the UNSC to quickly break procedural deadlocks, particularly the appointment of chairs and vice-chairs of subsidiary bodies.
Amid the gradual emergence of a multipolar world, developing countries are becoming increasingly important factors in promoting multilateralism, mediating conflicts, and driving economic development. However, the member structure of the United Nations (UN) Security Council, the UN's top governing body, is considered not to fully reflect the role and contributions of developing countries to global peace and security.
Viet Nam has reaffirmed the country’s commitment to the United Nations (UN) Charter, international law, multilateralism and the UN-centred international system.
Viet Nam has expressed deep concern over escalating tensions at multiple flashpoints in the Middle East and reiterated support for a two-state solution for Palestine.
Minister Counsellor Nguyen Hoang Nguyen, Chargé d’Affaires at the Vietnamese Delegation to the United Nations (UN), emphasised the importance of ensuring the timely and unimpeded delivery of humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza.
A Vietnamese diplomat underscored that preventing and addressing the root causes of conflict is the most effective means of protection, emphasising the need to place women at the centre of peacekeeping, reconciliation, and post-conflict reconstruction efforts.
Viet Nam condemns all acts of violence against children and calls for the immediate cessation of violations of children's rights in armed conflicts, Ambassador Do Hung Viet, Permanent Representative of Viet Nam to the United Nations, stressed on June 26.
