United Nations General Assembly

Agenda: Preventing the Militarisation of International Trade Routes

The United Nations General Assembly places global stability at the heart of its agenda through the topic: Preventing the Militarisation of International Trade Routes. As vital maritime corridors and strategic chokepoints sustain global commerce, rising military rivalry threatens economic security, freedom of navigation, and peaceful cooperation.

Delegates will examine the balance between legitimate national security concerns and the collective need for open, rules-based trade networks. From naval expansion and contested waters to blockades, sanctions, and coercive power projection, the committee will address the geopolitical pressures shaping modern trade. This agenda challenges participants to craft forward-looking solutions rooted in diplomacy, international law, transparency, and multilateral trust where economic resilience and global peace converge in one of the defining debates of our time.
