Through tireless efforts over more than 80 years, the United Nations has maintained its pivotal role in conflict prevention and peacekeeping. However, unpredictable shifts in the international landscape pose new challenges to the world’s largest multilateral organisation.

The number of armed conflicts globally has risen sharply to levels not seen since the end of the Second World War, driving global military spending to a record high of nearly 2.9 trillion USD.

After more than 80 years of formation and development, the United Nations has achieved remarkable accomplishments in its efforts to fulfil its mission of maintaining peace and security and building a more just and better world for all humanity.

The world is witnessing an unprecedented surge in conflicts and violence since the end of the second World War, with severe repercussions for the lives of millions and the eruption of numerous humanitarian crises.

Viet Nam and the United Nations (UN) reaffirmed their shared vision of putting people at the heart of all development strategies during a working session between Permanent Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Nguyen Minh Vu and UN Resident Coordinator for Viet Nam Pauline Tamesis and heads of UN development agencies in Ha Noi on November 14.

Viet Nam has been actively supporting the United Nations’ reform process, and the UN strongly encourages the Southeast Asian nation to continue voicing its support for efforts to make the organisation more effective, efficient, and responsive to global challenges.

Despite the many efforts and solutions with the joint contributions of the international community, humanitarian crises around the world are not narrowing but rather increasingly expanding. This requires the cooperation of all countries in the effort to find fundamental solutions to resolve the humanitarian crises.
