Due to the corona pandemic, the Munich security conference planned for February 2021 will be postponed indefinitely. Conference chairman Ischinger emphasized the necessity of a physical meeting, which is why no alternative date can be named so far.

On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the United Nations, the German Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) invoked its unity and willingness to reform. "In the end, the United Nations can only be as good as its members are united," Merkel said in a video message on Monday evening in New York for the UN anniversary ceremony.

She stated that the UN must continue to develop in order to meet the global challenges of the 21st century.
