Multilateral Meeting on Security and Resilience of Undersea Cables during UN General Assembly High Level Week [ https://www.state.gov/multilateral-meeting-on-security-and-resilience-of-undersea-cables-during-un-general-assembly-high-level-week/ ] 09/25/2024 04:32 PM EDT
Office of the Spokesperson
Ambassador at large for the Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy, Nathaniel C. Fick hosted a meeting on the Security and Resilience of Undersea Cables on the margins of the UN General Assembly High Level Week today.
The meeting announced the release of the New York Principles on Undersea Cables, a joint statement to declare our collective commitment to maintaining and increasing security and resilience of undersea cable infrastructure in a globally digitalized world. These principles serve to set forth a shared global approach to ensure the security, reliability, interoperability, sustainability, and resiliency for the deployment, repair and maintenance of undersea cable infrastructure. The meeting also celebrated the continued and collective success of undersea cable initiatives in Pacific Island Countries over the last year, including the Vice-Ministerial on March 28th of this year, and the potential of such initiatives to serve as a model to collaborate with foreign governments and private sector in other regions as well. The demand for undersea cables and supporting infrastructure has become indispensable to commerce and digital growth across every sector of the global economy, and the expansion of undersea cable networks is foundational to a more interconnected and interdependent global community.
Ambassador Fick also called on meeting attendees to recognize the “New York Principles,” a joint statement on a shared global approach to ensure the security, reliability, interoperability, sustainability, and resiliency for the deployment, repair and maintenance of undersea cable infrastructure. To date, over thirty countries have endorsed the principles.
