澳大利亚启动竞选联合国安理会非常任理事国席位

澳大利亚总理阿尔巴内塞正式启动了争取2029-30年度联合国安理会非常任理事国席位的竞选活动1。该席位将由联合国大会以三分之二多数投票选出，投票定于2028年6月进行1。目前芬兰是该席位的唯一竞争对手1。

阿尔巴内塞在竞选中承诺将成为太平洋地区的强有力倡导者，同时强调气候变化和人工智能等议题1。澳大利亚历史上已有五次参与安理会的经历，分别在1946-47年、1956-57年、1973-74年、1985-86年和2013-14年担任非常任理事国1。本次竞选采取相对温和的方式，相比上一次参选（2013-14年）的约2500万美元成本，预计将更为节制1。

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has formally launched his country's campaign to secure a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council for 2029-30, positioning Australia as a strong advocate for the Pacific region 1. Finland is currently the only competing candidate for the position, which will be decided by a two-thirds majority vote of the UN General Assembly scheduled for June 2028 1.

Australia brings substantial experience to the race, having served on the Security Council five times previously—in 1946-47, 1956-57, 1973-74, 1985-86, and most recently in 2013-14 1. The country's previous campaign for the 2013-14 seat cost approximately 25 million dollars, though the current bid is planned to be more modest in scale 1. Albanese has emphasized Australia's commitment to addressing key global issues including climate change and artificial intelligence, while championing Pacific region interests in the Council 1.
