UN Secretary General Guterres delivered a speech on the international day of multilateralism and diplomacy for peace on the 24th, calling on the international community to strengthen cooperation to meet the great challenges facing multilateralism. Guterres said in his speech that the commitment of the international community to multilateralism at the beginning of the founding of the United Nations is "being broken", and the core principles of multilateral cooperation are facing the greatest pressure since the founding of the United Nations. From the climate crisis to the increasing conflicts, including the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine, the control of weapons of mass destruction, public health emergencies and the global refugee protection mechanism, all show that the multilateral system and diplomatic value system are facing threats from all sides. Guterres said that the international community should unite and strive to "turn this moment of crisis into a moment of multilateralism". The international community should strive to establish a more networked and inclusive multilateralism. He called on governments and leaders to reaffirm their commitment to dialogue and global solutions, as "this is the only sustainable way to peace". In December 2018, the United Nations General Assembly announced the establishment of the international day of multilateralism and peaceful diplomacy, and held its first celebration at the United Nations headquarters in New York on April 24, 2019.
