概要：

Over the past three years, the Biden Administration has re-engaged at the United Nations and other multilateral forums. In an era defined by strategic competition, we are leading from a position of strength and advancing our vision for a more free, open, secure, and prosperous world.

In this work, we have strong partners in Japan and the Republic of South Korea. With all three countries on the UN Security Council this year - for the first time since 1997 - Ambassador Thomas-Greenfield will highlight the ways we are working together to tackle pressing global challenges, including the DPRK and disarmament, Women, Peace, and Security, the climate crisis, and emerging technologies.
