Fourthly, we must pursue common development and prepare the ground for peace. Many regional hotspot issues will ultimately be resolved by development. The United Nations and regional organizations must embrace the concept of promoting peace through development, adopt an integrated approach to peacekeeping, peacebuilding and post-war reconstruction, and help countries in need to access development funds and resources in a timely manner.”

  11. “It is necessary for the United Nations and regional organizations to work together to assess experience and lessons learned, maintain useful traditions and innovate, uphold multilateralism and contribute to world peace and development. In that context, I wish to share a few thoughts. First, we must observe norms and build a solid foundation for peace. The Charter of the United Nations is the embodiment of these norms and the cornerstone of cooperation between the United Nations and regional organizations. Regional organizations carrying out peace operations must conform to the purposes and principles of the Charter, in particular by respecting national sovereignty and territorial integrity and avoiding interference in the internal affairs of other countries.”

Cooperation between the United Nations and regional organizations is a clear requirement of the Charter of the United Nations and an important manifestation of multilateralism. As the world struggles with the shockwaves from the profound changes in the international landscape, compounded by the pandemic, we face pronounced challenges in the field of international peace and security and a complex interplay of traditional and non-traditional security issues. This calls for joint efforts at the global and regional levels.”
