At a side event marking the 80th anniversary of the UN Charter during the 59th session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, Chinese envoy Chen Xu delivered a clear message. He condemned the military strikes in Iran by the U.S. and Israel, stressing that such actions undermine the very principles that the UN Charter established to maintain global peace and order. 🌍
Chen Xu explained that the UN Charter acts as a key rulebook for international relations, setting standards for fairness and cooperation. He pointed out that the recent strikes, along with policies like "withdrawing from groups and cutting funding," seriously damage multilateralism—the idea that nations should work together through dialogue rather than conflict.
Promoting true multilateralism, Chen Xu urged all parties to support the United Nations and engage in consultation to resolve differences. This call for cooperation resonates strongly with young, tech-savvy professionals across South and Southeast Asia who value global connectivity and unity in our fast-paced world. Let’s keep the conversation rolling on building a more peaceful and inclusive future! ✌️
