He said as a family of nations, Malaysia also calls on all UN member states to improve their resolve to strengthen international cooperation and multi-lateralism towards a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world where the global community of nations live in peaceful coexistence.
Asked whether Malaysia will highlight the security partnership involving the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia, known with the acronym Aukus, at the 76th UNGS, he said Saifuddin is expected to stress the importance of all UN member states to strengthen cooperation on stabilising global security.
