        "summary": "Foreign Minister Arrmanatha has called for urgent United Nations reform, arguing that multilateral dialogue is shrinking despite the growing need for international cooperation. Indonesia wants the UN to adapt its operations and give developing countries, particularly the Global South, a stronger voice, while reaffirming its commitment to the organisation and Palestinian self-determination.",
        "content": "<p>\u201cFor Indonesia, multilateralism is not an option; it is a necessity,\u201d\nFM Arrmanatha stated during his address in Jakarta on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>The Foreign Minister noted that at a time when the world is in\ngreatest need of cooperation, the space for multilateral dialogue is\nactually shrinking.<\/p>\n<p>To reverse this trend, Arrmanatha called for the reform of the United\nNations to ensure it remains relevant in facing the challenges of the\n21st century.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is why reform is no longer simply desirable. It is urgent.\nIndonesia has been saying this for a very long time,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n<p>Arrmanatha further asserted that the principles of the UN Charter\nmust remain the primary foundation for international relations. However,\nthe institutions built upon these principles must adapt to changing\ntimes to deliver tangible results for their member states.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReform is not about reinventing the wheel. And it is not change for\nthe sake of change. It is about a UN that delivers, a UN that serves, a\nUN that knows what it is for,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>In this context, Indonesia advocates for strengthening the voices of\ndeveloping nations\u2014particularly those in the Global South\u2014within global\ndecision-making processes.<\/p>\n<p>Arrmanatha suggested that UN reform should encompass how the\norganization functions, conducts its operations, allocates resources,\nand responds to the needs of its member states.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReform is not a luxury. It is the price for relevance,\u201d he\nasserted.<\/p>\n<p>Closing his statement, Arrmanatha emphasized that Indonesia remains\ncommitted to the UN, in line with its Constitution\u2014which mandates a\ncontribution toward a world order based on independence, lasting peace,\nand social justice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is why our support for the independence and self-determination\nof the Palestinian people has never wavered. Our own history taught us\nthe value of sovereignty, equality, and solidarity. And it taught us one\nhard truth,\u201d the minister stated.<\/p>\n<p>Related news: Gutteres lauds RI\u2019s commitment to multilateralism<\/p>\n<p>Related news: Indonesia says UN must pursue reform amid 21st-century\ndynamics<\/p>\n<p>Related news: Indonesia stresses national resilience for stronger\nmultilateralism<\/p>\n<p>Translator: Kuntum Khaira R., Nabil Ihsan, Yashinta Difa<\/p>",
