Javier Milei's Four Principles for UN Reform at the General Assembly

Core Principles for UN Reform

• 🎯 The essential mandate of the UN must be to preserve international peace and security, with all other functions being complementary.
• 💡 International subsidiarity dictates that the UN should only intervene when a problem demonstrably exceeds national capabilities, returning initiative to states otherwise.
• 🔬 Institutional efficiency requires the UN to undergo optimization, closing ineffective programs, consolidating agencies, and conditioning funding on verifiable results.
• ⚖️ Simplification of regulations is crucial, ensuring international cooperation does not hinder economic growth, investment, or trade, which are key to poverty reduction.

Argentina's Key Concerns

• 🇦🇷 Milei reiterated Argentina's legitimate and inalienable claim over the Malvinas Islands, citing past UN resolutions.
• 🕊️ He condemned fundamentalist terrorism, referencing past attacks in Argentina and calling for strengthened international legal cooperation to bring perpetrators to justice.
• ⚠️ Acknowledging the global escalation of political violence, Milei emphasized the inadmissibility of using force where reason fails and repudiated such actions against democratic coexistence.
• 🇻🇪 The arbitrary detention of an Argentine citizen in Venezuela was condemned as forced disappearance, demanding immediate release and international support.
• 🌍 Finally, the immediate release of hostages in Gaza was demanded, underscoring basic principles of international law and life.
