Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro Jr. will represent the Philippines at the 2025 United Nations (UN) Peacekeeping Ministerial scheduled on 13 to 14 May in Berlin, Germany.
According to DND spokesperson Arsenio Andolong, Teodoro is scheduled to speak during the pledging session, where he will unveil the Philippines' latest commitments to United Nations peacekeeping efforts.
"The country is anticipated to present substantial pledges to further support global peace operations, pursuant to the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.," Andolong added.
The 2025 UN Peacekeeping Ministerial serves as a key platform for Member States to demonstrate political support and announce meaningful pledges aimed at enhancing mission effectiveness, ensuring peacekeeper safety, and advancing the future of peace operations.
The event will convene defense and foreign ministers from around the world to reaffirm their commitment to peacekeeping and explore innovative approaches to strengthen future missions.
As a trusted partner, innovative leader, and dedicated peacemaker, the Philippines continues to play a pivotal role in supporting UN peacekeeping reforms and initiatives.
Andolong said the country remains committed to ensuring more agile, inclusive, and effective peace operations to address the challenges of today’s evolving global security landscape.
