UN General Assembly
2025

To enhance legitimacy and accountability, we must restructure the Council to include underrepresented voices including Japan, India, Germany, Brazil, and the African continent. Such reforms would better reflect modern international dynamics and strengthen the Council's role in promoting peace and security. Madam President, eight years ago, the United Nations was founded on a simple but enduring truth. Every nation, big or small, has a voice, a vote, and a role to play in shaping the world we share. My Cronyshian may be small, but our voice, our vote, and our place within the international community is committed to choosing that we are, in fact, better together. That truth must guide us still because, big or small, every nation has the power to choose peace over conflict. Big or small, every nation has the power to choose peace over conflict. Big or small, every nation has the duty to protect our planet from harm. Big or small, every nation has the responsibility to defend justice and human dignity.
