00:00Mr. President, the pact sets a paradigm for inclusive multilateralism and fosters a new
00:06international and intergenerational solidarity on the role of women, youth, migrants, persons
00:13with disabilities, older persons, and indigenous peoples in shaping a more humane, equal, and
00:19just society.
00:21It also brings new vigor to our unfinished business of eliminating nuclear weapons and
00:26other weapons of mass destruction and propels our endeavors to establish norms to prevent
00:32an arms race in space, govern lethal autonomous weapons, and address risks of emerging technologies
00:39to international peace and security.
00:42Mr. President, it is important that this pact renews our collective determination to defuse
00:48tensions and seek the peaceful resolution of disputes and conflicts.
00:53In the essence of the 1982 Manila Declaration on the Peaceful Resolution of Disputes, in
00:58pledging to the pact, states abide by the obligation of rejecting force and the threat
01:04of use of force to settle disputes.
01:07As a founding member of the UN and the First Asian Republic, the Philippines shall always
01:12be a voice for peace, equity and justice, human rights and human dignity, the rule of
01:19law, and constructive multilateralism.
