On May 27, within the framework of the second international "Yerevan Dialogue" conference, a panel discussion titled “Plurilateral Pathways: Restoring Order in a Fraying Multilateral System” was held, with the participation of Mnatsakan Safaryan, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia; Lasha Darsalia, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Georgia; Andrew Rosindell, Member of Parliament of the United Kingdom; Minna-Liina Lind, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Estonia; Ahmad Saidmurodzoda, Deputy Secretary General of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization; Sarah Mosoetsa, Chief Executive Officer of the Human Sciences Research Council of South Africa; and Kei Koga, Associate Professor at Nanyang Technological University of Japan. The panel was moderated by Lisa Singh, Chief Executive Officer of the Australia India Institute.

The discussion highlighted that the value of multilateralism remains undeniable in maintaining global balance. Speakers agreed that “rather than turning away from cooperation, countries must respond proactively—especially in moments demanding humanitarian intervention.”

Mnatsakan Safaryan emphasized that smaller states like Armenia are increasingly turning to plurilateralism as a path forward, creating flexible alliances that reflect shared priorities.
