Ambassador Dang Hoang Giang, Permanent Representative of Vietnam to the UN, said the current international security environment was the most complex in decades, which might adversely affect the common efforts of the international community.

In that context, countries should strengthen international efforts in disarmament and non-proliferation to protect hard-earned achievements. He said it is necessary to continue complying with the fundamental principles of international law and the UN Charter, promote the peaceful settlement of international disputes, maintain the centrality of multilateralism, and boost the mechanism for global disarmament.

Giang said Vietnam was ready to engage in the committee’s activities and support efforts to build a world of peace, stability, and development.
