High-level open debate aims to address the implications of Russia's aggression against Ukraine with regard to multilateralism based on international law, including the Charter of the United Nations, and to consider all the necessary collective efforts to reinforce the international rules-based order and strengthen multilateralism. At a time when the multilateral order based on the respect of international law is seriously challenged by a war of aggression, leaders are expected to come together and reiterate the importance of upholding the Charter to promote and defend effective multilateralism.
This meeting aims to invoke the need to work together to prevent future violations of international law and to promote the peaceful resolution of conflicts through diplomatic means and dialogue.
The high-level open debate will be chaired by the Prime Minister of the Republic of Albania, Edi Rama.
