Screenshot of the UN Secretary General's message welcoming the launch of the report on small states and the future of multilateralism. It partially reads as follows: "I send my warmest greetings to Singapore and the many other small states in attendance, and commend you and the International Peace Institute on the launch of your report and this interactive dialogue on small states and the future of multilateralism.. the world’s challenges have an outsized impact on small states — from the devastating effects of climate change, to an outdated and unfair global financial system, to conflicts and divisions. We must ensure that the specific needs of small states are not lost to the ambitions of larger, more powerful countries. Over the coming days, the Summit of the Future is an opportunity to change this trajectory, and demonstrate that a reinvigorated multilateral system is essential and must reflect all countries, large and small. The UN is proud to stand with you in this important work."
