Prime Minister of Thailand: Thailand will actively participate in international cooperation to promote peace and sustainable development

China News Service, Bangkok, October 24 (Liang Junxiang, Li Yingmin) Thai Prime Minister Anutin delivered a speech on the 24th, saying that in the face of new challenges brought by geopolitical conflicts, climate change, and the development of science and technology and artificial intelligence, Thailand insists on safeguarding the sovereignty of all countries and national equality, advocates peaceful resolution of disputes, respects international law, and will actively and constructively participate in international cooperation to promote peace and sustainable development.

October 24 is United Nations Day. Anutin delivered a speech through the Thai National Broadcasting Network that day, and the content of his speech was subsequently released by the Thai Prime Minister's Office.

He said that in the past few decades, international cooperation has promoted the formation of a series of rules that are followed by all countries, covering areas such as human rights protection, children and women's rights, labor rights, maritime law, environment, education, culture and sustainable development. These rules do not allow all countries to have exactly the same position, but they can provide principles for peaceful coexistence in the international community and a platform for dialogue and consultation to resolve problems.

Anutin pointed out that the geopolitical conflicts, climate change, and the rapid development of science and technology and artificial intelligence that the world faces today are creating new global challenges and constantly testing the resilience of the international order. Thailand adheres to the principles of sovereignty and equality of all countries, supports the settlement of disputes through peaceful means and respects international law, and believes that international cooperation and rules recognized by all parties are an important foundation for maintaining peace and achieving sustainable development.

Anutin said that the Thai government recently reconfirmed the above position at the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly and further enhanced Thailand's role in global and regional cooperation. Taking the annual meeting of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank Group held in Bangkok in the middle of this month as an example, he said that this international meeting provides an important platform for all parties to discuss the future of the global economy, and also reflects Thailand's willingness to play a bridging role to promote different countries to enhance understanding and expand cooperation.

Anutin said that Thailand will continue to actively participate in international cooperation through the United Nations framework, bilateral relations and multilateral mechanisms at all levels, and contribute to maintaining world peace, promoting sustainable development and improving the lives of people in all countries.
