Defining the News

Ambassador Danny Danon, Permanent Representative of Israel to the UN speaks during"Summit of the Future" on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, September 22, 2024. UN members adopted a blueprint for the future Sunday to tackle the myriad wars, environmental threats and technological challenges facing humanity that the global organization hailed as “groundbreaking,” but critics panned as unambitious.

Leaders pledged to bolster the multilateral system to “keep pace with a changing world” and to “protect the needs and interests of current and future generations” facing “persistent crisis.”The pact outlines 56 “actions,” including commitments to multilateralism, upholding the UN Charter and peacekeeping.

Russia’s objections were backed by allies Belarus, North Korea, Iran, Nicaragua and Syria, but its amendment was overwhelmingly dismissed in a motion to take no action. During the negotiations phase, the UN Secretary-General had urged nations to show “vision” and “courage,” calling for “maximum ambition” to strengthen international institutions that struggle to respond effectively to today’s threats.
