🎙 Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the UN Security Council’s open debates “Effective multilateralism through the Defence of the Principles of the UN Charter” (New York, April 24, 2023)
Key points:
🔹 Today, our UN-centric system is going through a deep crisis. The main reason is a striving by some UN members to replace international law and the UN Charter with a certain “rules-based” order.
🔹 The collective West has set out to reshape the processes of multilateralism at the regional level to suit its needs.
🔹 The United States and its allies have deployed significant forces to undermine multilateralism in the Asia-Pacific region where an ASEAN-centered successful and open economic and security cooperation system has been taking shape for decades.
🔹 Since World War II, Washington has pulled off dozens of reckless criminal military operations without even trying to secure multilateral legitimacy.
🔹 Multilateral efforts were made to stop the war unleashed in the east of Ukraine as a result of a government coup. These efforts towards peaceful settlement were embodied in a UN Security Council resolution that unanimously approved the Minsk agreements. Kiev and its Western bosses trampled these agreements underfoot.
🔹 There should be no such thing as double standards. Both multilateralism and democracy should be respected within the member countries and in their relations with one another.
🔹 It is imperative to expedite Security Council reform by expanding the representation of countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
🔹 It is our common duty to preserve the United Nations as the hard-won epitome of multilateralism and coordination of international politics. The key to success lies in working together and showing respect for the sovereign equality of states.
🔹 The Russian media were not allowed to come [to the US]. Please see to it that worldwide audiences can use your reports to glean every angle of the comments and assessments.
