Belarus announces Sept 25 UN talks on Eurasian Charter of Diversity and Multipolarity

Belarusian Foreign Minister Maxim Ryazhenkov announced that negotiations on the Eurasian Charter of Diversity and Multipolarity in the 21st Century will begin September 25, 2026, at the UN headquarters in New York. The initiative, likely aimed at countering Western-led norms, signals a push by Belarus and possibly allied states to institutionalize a multipolar framework. The scope of participation and concrete content remain unclear, but the timing at the UN General Assembly suggests a diplomatic launch rather than substantive talks.
