现有裁军、不扩散和安全架构很好地服务了全球安全，但今天，我们面临的现实是，对安全的挑战和威胁变得越来越复杂、不对称，并且具有跨国性质。我们认为，多边主义和基于规则的秩序仍然是解决问题和推进我们在裁军、不扩散及其它当代安全挑战方面工作的唯一有效途径。大规模毁灭性武器的扩散在国家和国际两级都对国际和平与稳定构成严重威胁。无条件遵守《不扩散核武器条约》（《不扩散条约》）、《化学武器公约》、《生物武器公约》和安全理事会决议等相关国际安排所规定的义务，必须成为国际社会的主要优先事项。
The existing disarmament, non-proliferation and security architecture has served global security well, but today we are facing a reality in which the challenges and threats to security have become more and more complex, asymmetrical and transnational in nature. We believe that multilateralism and the rules-based order remain the only effective ways to solve problems and advance our work on disarmament, non-proliferation and other contemporary security challenges. The proliferation of weapons of mass destruction poses a serious threat to international peace and stability at both the national and international levels. Unconditional compliance with obligations under relevant international arrangements such as the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), the Chemical Weapons Convention, the Biological Weapons Convention and the resolutions of the Security Council must stand out as a main priority of the international community.
