The United Nations:
Pakistan has confirmed his unwavering belief in multilateralism, preventative diplomacy and the peaceful solution of disputes such as the UN General Assembly recalled the 80th anniversary of the song of the un -chartered and called it a “pillar of international peace, justice and cooperation”.
“Let this anniversary not only be a moment of memory, but also a call for action – a collective promise to restore confidence in multilateralism and to revive the very ideals of the United Nations,” Pakistani delegated Said Saleem told the assembly’s special meeting, which highlighted the excellent questions about Palestine and Kashmir.
Representatives of 50 nations signed the charter in San Francisco, California, on June 26, 1945, when Poland later signed the total amount to 51 foundation members, according to the UN. It came into force on October 24, 1945 after the ratification of signing nations.
From 50 members in 1945, the United Nations membership has now grown to 193.
At the beginning of the memorial, the General Assembly’s President Philemon Yang described the moment as “symbolic,” but gloomy, and noticed ongoing conflicts in Gaza, Ukraine and Sudan and the growing challenges of multilateralism.
He urged nations to choose diplomacy rather than power and maintain the charter’s vision of peace and human dignity: “We must seize the moment and choose dialogue and diplomacy instead of destructive wars.”
MS Saleem, an adviser at Pakistan Mission The UN, said in the eight decades since 1945, the UN has served as a lighthouse for hope for countless nations and people.
“The charter’s principles-superior equality, right to self-determination, non-use of power, respect for human rights, and the peaceful solution of disputes remain as important and relevant today as they were in San Francisco,” she said.
“Still, the world we live is filled with new and complex challenges: ongoing conflicts, foreign occupation, climate change, inequalities and violations of international law require renewed commitment to the charter – not in words alone, but in collective action,” said Pakistani Delegat.
“Nowhere is this more urgent than in the case of long-term disputes such as Jammu and Kashmir and Palestine, where the non-implementation of the Security Council’s decisions continues to deny people their right to self-determination.”
