“How did the UN meet expectations,” asked Mr Jaishankar, pointing to the conflicts in Ukraine and the Midden -Oost, as well as West -Asia and “countless hotspots” that “don’t agree on the news.”
The minister considered a observed lack of global solidarity about a number of issues: he described the slow progress of the Sustainable development goals (who are far away for completion against the Deadline of 2030) as ‘a sorry photo’, condemned the ‘recirculated obligations and creative accounting’ that, he said, pass on for climate action, and accused rich countries of isolating themselves energy and food insecurity, while stressed nations ‘only survive’ “
Worldwide economic problems include “rate volatility and uncertain market access,” argued the minister, technological control, supply chain and critical minerals, the protection of samples and limitations on the evolution of a global workplace.
These issues indicate a need for more international cooperation, he suggested, while questioning the UN’s ability to resolve them. Mr Jaishankar stated that the UN is ‘in a crisis state’, and tied up, partly due to a resistance to reform, although most members want to change. “It is necessary that we look through cynicism and deliberately tackle the reform agenda,” he said.
Confronted with terrorism
In a reference to ongoing disputes with Pakistan, Mr Jaishankar claimed that, for a few decades, large international terrorist attacks have been traced back to India’s neighbor.
He said that India is exercising the right to defend his people against terrorism and bring his perpetrators to court. Fighting this threat, he said, is an area where much deeper international cooperation is needed, and exerted ruthless pressure on the entire terrorecosystem.
India’s duty to contribute ‘
Mr Jaishankar portray India as leader in Global South, responsible for more than 600 development projects in 78 countries. The country, he said, steps ahead to respond to the urgent needs of other countries, whether it concerns ‘finances, food, fertilizer of fuel’.
He gave the example of the emergency aid that India provided after the earthquake of 2024 Afghanistan, and the more recent earthquake in Myanmar, and the contribution that India makes to peace enforcement, which supplies troops as blue helmets in conflict shot spots of the Golan heights to West -Sahara and Somalia.
‘Islands of prosperity cannot bloom in an ocean of turbulence’
The minister then praised the economic performance of his country, especially in the past decade. He mentioned the Indian start-up ecosystem, fast-growing infrastructure and dedication to use artificial intelligence in a responsible manner.
The approach of India, explained Mr Jaishankar, can be summarized as self -reliance, strong safety and the self -confidence of a fast -growing large economy.
He concluded with a call for the ninth decade of the UN to be one of leadership and hope. “International cooperation must have the upper hand because islands of prosperity cannot flourish in an ocean of turbulence.”
