Vietnam nominated as Chair of 35th meeting of State Parties to UNCLOS

-The Group of Asia-Pacific states at the United Nations last weekend agreed to nominate Vietnam for the position of Chair of the 35th meeting of the States Parties to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea .

The position will be officially elected just before the meeting slated for June 23-27 at the UN Headquarters in New York.

The nomination reflects the high trust and recognition from the international community for Vietnam's leading efforts in implementing and strengthening the universal values of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea , as well as its positive contributions to the UN since it joined the convention in 1994.

Over the past years, Vietnam has considered UNCLOS as the Constitution of the Oceans and a crucial basis for implementing maritime cooperation activities. It has achieved significant accomplishments in solving maritime delimitation issues with neighboring countries such as Thailand, China and Indonesia, enriching the practical application of the convention.

Vietnam has also actively participated in UNCLOS-related activities, such as holding its membership at the Council and the Legal and Technical Commission of the International Seabed Authority. It was an active participant in negotiations and one of the first countries to sign the Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction Agreement, the most recent international document related to the implementation of UNCLOS.
