The current multilateral world order has struggled against the double standards of great powers, who have stripped multilateral institutions of their influence, shaped the rules to their advantage, and follow them only when it suits. Today at UNGA 81, Open Society hosted conversations with municipal government officials, civil society...

A multilateral system built on minimal states has left governments with little room to respond to people’s needs; when states are able to deliver at home, they have more of a voice abroad. We’re working to support a shift in multilateral systems from instruments of fiscal discipline and constraints on public policy to enablers of a more just, equitable, and prosperous future for all.

Such a raw truth about how power actually functions ✨ The rules only work when they’re enforced by everyone, not just the winners.

"Ya know, Thailand diplomatic game is strong, but we still need more middle powers to join the coalitions and challenge these great power's rules!".

China’s🇨🇳 President Xi Jinping: “Transformation unseen in a century is accelerating across the world. Hegemonism, unilateralism and protectionism are getting more and more rampant. Trade wars and tariff wars waged by some countries severely disrupt the world economy and undermine international trade rules. At this critical juncture, BRICS countries, standing at the forefront of the Global South, should act on the BRICS spirit of openness, inclusiveness and win-win cooperation, jointly defend multilateralism and the multilateral trading system, advance greater BRICS cooperation and build a community with a shared future for humanity. Place development at the heart of our international agenda, and ensure that Global South countries participate in international cooperation as equals and share in the fruits of development.'

As conflicts persist, as new threats emerge and as old institutions falter, the pursuit of global peace and security has never been more urgent or more complex. The United Nations, in particular the Security Council, is the preeminent instrument for the maintenance of international peace and security. Yet, it has too often failed to meet the challenges of today. In responding to these challenges – ranging from humanitarian crises to open acts of aggression – the Security Council has become too rigid, too narrow and too disconnected from today’s multipolar realities. Reform is a necessity. The Security Council must be made more democratic, more regionally representative and more accountable. My remarks at the #BRICS Summit Session on Peace & Security, Reform of Global Governance Reform:

As global economic and political relationships are being reshaped, the relevance of a rules-based multilateral system remains critical. History shows that multilateral platforms are not just for vulnerable or middle powers - even dominant economies depend on them. From the global financial crisis of 2008 to the elevation of the G20 to a leaders’ forum, collective action has repeatedly proven its value, an approach consistently emphasised under the leadership of PM Sh Narendra Modi Ji. #IndiaEnergyWeek2026 #Multilateralism #GlobalGovernance #G20 #InternationalCooperation

Built on shared rules and cooperation beyond national borders, the EU is firmly committed to the global multilateral system with the United Nations at its core. But we need to modernise multilateral institutions so that they can respond effectively to the challenges of our times. That’s why, on the margins of this year’s United Nations General Assembly, the EU will co-sponsor together with Canada and Kenya, the summit “Partners for Multilateralism”. Together, we can find common solutions to shared problems and promote peace and prosperity for all. #P4MSummit

At the invitation of the Government of Portugal, the Zimbabwe delegation, which is campaigning for the country’s non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council, attended the Portuguese campaign event in New York City this Thursday, as Portugal is also vying for a non-permanent seat on the Security Council. The occasion reflected growing diplomatic solidarity and cooperation between Zimbabwe and Portugal within the multilateral space. Zimbabwe’s presence at the event demonstrated its commitment to constructive international engagement, partnership, and support for nations advocating for peace, dialogue, and global cooperation. As both countries continue to engage on international platforms, the show of solidarity in New York symbolized mutual respect, diplomatic collaboration, and a shared vision for inclusive global governance and international peace and security.

Today, I addressed the Peace Formula meeting in Malta, which gathered 66 countries from around the world, both from the West and the Global South. In total, almost 70 global actors have already joined the Peace Formula process. The aspiration for peace is stipulated in international law and the UN Charter. But does the UN Charter work? Here in Ukraine, in the Middle East, and in African countries, the answer to this question is the cries of mothers burying their sons and daughters killed in wars, as well as the despair of children orphaned by wars. We can and must give a different answer. I proposed the Peace Formula last year. Its 10 points cover all aspects of Russia's aggression against Ukraine and are based on the principles of the UN Charter and UNGA resolutions. Over the year, the Formula has gradually become global, with more and more countries and international organizations joining efforts to implement it. The result of these collective actions can be the restoration of the territorial integrity of our state and the full force of international law, thus ensuring a reliable and just peace.

Some relationships are older than borders. For the Muslim world, this relationship is called 'Ummah' a shared identity, a shared destiny. In 1969, leaders of the Muslim world gathered in Rabat and resolved to speak with one voice, which resulted in the creation of today's Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). What began with a few countries has now grown into a large family of 57 member states from Asia, Africa, the Middle East and other regions, making it the world's second largest international organization after the United Nations. It represents nearly two billion people, united by a shared vision of peace, development, education and human dignity. Over time, the OIC has strengthened its commitment to promoting women's rights, leadership and effective participation in society. To give practical form to this commitment, the Women's Development Organization, the Agenda for the Advancement of Women and the series of Ministerial Conferences on Women, which began in Istanbul in 2006, were established. Today, for the ninth time, this Ministerial Conference is being held in Islamabad. is being held in Abad. Women in the Muslim world have always played a significant role in the development of their families, societies and countries as educators, professionals, entrepreneurs, leaders and agents of positive change. Their perseverance, achievements and leadership continue to pave the way for progress and prosperity in every sector of society. #OICinPakistan2026 #9thOICWomen

🚨 Prof. Richard Sakwa: 'MILITARISM and remilitarisation now DOMINATE Western political culture’ 'There is a closing of the West European mind, and it is very frightening. It is centered on permanent war, militarism, remilitarisation, and a profound Russophobia. Quite the opposite of strengthening international law, the actions of the US and West European powers are increasingly treated with contempt across great swathes of the Global South. This irresponsible bullying and the attempt to impose endless sanctions, including secondary sanctions, are viewed as illegal because only the United Nations Security Council has the authority to impose multilateral sanctions. These governments claim they are defending international law, but in doing so they are undermining and repudiating it. It is a classic case of double standards defeating the very norms they claim to uphold. —Prof. Richard Sakwa, Emeritus Professor of Politics at the University of Kent and author of The Putin Paradox on the latest episode of New Order.

The breakdown of international law is evident in today’s two preeminent global crises — Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine and the war in the Middle East. A new world is now in the making, characterised by competition and coercive power politics; a world order dominated by a handful of military powers who aim to establish spheres of influence. This is why the EU’s support for the UN now is more vital than ever. My statement at the United Nations Security Council ↓
