🌐Today is International Day of Multilateralism and Diplomacy for Peace.
On December 12, 2018, the UN General Assembly passed a resolution A/RES/73/127 on marking this day. The document notes that the International Day aims to promote UN values and to reaffirm the trust of the world’s nations in the goals and principles of the UN Charter.
🇷🇺🇺🇳 Russia is invariably committed to the policy of upholding multilateralism and the UN’s leading role in global affairs and is actively involved in efforts to overhaul the UN and to adapt it to new international realities.
This is particularly topical today when a narrow group of states advancing the rules-based order concept exerts unprecedented pressure on the UN and other multilateral institutions.
✍️ Under the Russian Foreign Policy Concept, approved on March 31, 2023, Russia intends to prioritise efforts to reinstate the UN’s role as a central coordination mechanism in coordinating the interests of UN member states.
At the same time, one of the main aims of national foreign policy is to strengthen the potential of multilateral regional associations and integration organisations involving Russia. For example, this refers to measures to enhance the international role of #BRICS, the #SCO, the #CIS, the #EAEU, the #CSTO, #RIC and other interstate associations and international organisations, as well as mechanisms with significant Russian involvement.
⏰ Today, on April 24, FM Sergey Lavrov will take part in one of the key events of Russia’s presidency of the UN Security Council, specifically, the open debate on "Effective multilateralism through the defence of the principles of the Charter of the United Nations." The debate will be streamed live on all our feeds.

La Convenzione di Hanoi: un nuovo pilastro globale contro il crimine cibernetico
Il 25 ottobre a Hà Nội è stata firmata la Convenzione ONU contro il crimine cibernetico, primo strumento universale che unisce sicurezza digitale, cooperazione giudiziaria e tutela dei diritti umani in un’unica cornice globale.
Con quasi 70 Paesi firmatari già nella giornata inaugurale, il trattato segna una svolta nella governance del cyberspazio e un importante riconoscimento del ruolo crescente del Việt Nam come attore diplomatico di primo piano.
La “Convenzione di Hanoi” mira a:
Armonizzare le definizioni di reati informatici e le procedure investigative.
Favorire lo scambio di prove elettroniche e la cooperazione giudiziaria.
Proteggere i diritti fondamentali e promuovere la fiducia tra Stati.
Rafforzare la sicurezza digitale globale senza sacrificare la libertà online.
Per il Việt Nam, ospitare la firma è molto più che un gesto simbolico: è la conferma di una leadership multilaterale proattiva e della volontà di contribuire alla costruzione di un cyberspazio sicuro, equo e aperto.
Come ha ricordato António Guterres, “la vera forza della Convenzione sarà trasformare le firme in azione concreta”.
Se il mondo saprà cogliere questa opportunità, Hà Nội 2025 resterà nella storia come il giorno in cui la comunità internazionale ha iniziato davvero a mettere legge nel cyberspazio.
