00:00 It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it.
00:06 And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it.
00:13 Today as we gather under the theme of multilateralism and peace, prosperity, progress and sustainability,
00:20 we are not just discussing peace. We are committing to it, believing in it,
00:28 and most importantly, working towards it.
00:31 In an era where challenges are global and intertwined, our resolve to act in concert has never been more critical.
00:40 And India, as a land where ancient wisdom coalesces with modern aspirations, embodies the spirit of multilateralism.
00:49 We've always believed that unity in variety is the plan of the universe.
00:55 This ethos resonates with our active engagement in the United Nations,
00:59 from peacekeeping missions to sustainable development endeavors,
01:04 echoing our commitment to collective progress and global harmony.
01:08 Our collective efforts at the United Nations symbolize, hence, a commitment to not just dialogue,
01:15 but to actionable strategies that transcend borders and unite us in our common humanity.
01:22 India's participation in multilateral frameworks reaffirms our dedication to these universal goals.
01:29 By embracing multilateral cooperation, we not only pave the way for a more equitable world,
01:35 but also ensure the sustainability of our planet for future generations.
01:41 The UN's focus this year on the Summit of the Future, an initiative to reimagine and revitalize the United Nations,
01:50 a UN 2.0, if you will, is a testament to our shared commitment to adapt and evolve.
01:57 This pivotal moment in history does indeed call for a renewed United Nations,
02:04 one that responds effectively to the ever-changing landscape of global needs and aspirations.
02:11 We simply cannot afford to fail.
