In his remarks, Yang affirmed that promoting multilingualism in the UN’s activities is one of the key priorities of the 79th General Assembly. He commended member states that have provided translations of the document into 33 languages beyond the UN’s six official languages, including Vietnamese.

These translations allow more than 3.5 billion people worldwide to access and contribute to the implementation of this important document, he stressed.

The Vietnamese translation, along with other language versions of the "Pact for the Future", is available on the official UN website: https://www.un.org/pga/79/multilingualism-in-action-translations-of-the-pact-for-the-future-in-global-languages-2/.
