In preparation for the UN Millennial Summit, the organisation's Secretary-general, Kofi Annan, said that the concept of national sovereignty would have to be redefined or abandoned as it stands in the way of greater unity in the world. He also promised that steps would be taken in 2000 to promote a world religion: "The UN will expand its role as peace-maker to the religious field by staging the first meeting for the world's religious leaders," he said. This new approach gave rise to the United Religions Initiative, aimed at developing into the United Religions Organisation.
