President Lee Jae-myung proposed the idea of a 'constructive contributor alliance' to resolve the Hormuz Strait crisis at the UN General Assembly. This emphasized his stance that multilateralism is necessary to address issues related to the Iran war, such as supply chain problems, amid pressure from the United States for troop deployment. The president presented a model in which each country cooperates in its area of strength while respecting the existing international order. He also stressed the role of middle-power diplomacy as a 'global public goods' provider and expressed his will to emerge as a globally responsible power.
