- The political and socioeconomic landscape, as well as inter-state interactions, have all been influenced by technological growth.
BACKGROUND:
- By a recorded vote of 144 in favour to 2 against, the General Assembly adopted the resolution “International Day of Multilateralism and Diplomacy for Peace” (A/RES/73/127) on December 12, 2018.
