BEIJING - China, Russia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan on Monday submitted a draft code of conduct for information security, the first of its kind in the field, for discussion during the upcoming United Nations General Assembly.

The permanent representatives of China, Russia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan to the UN jointly sent the letter to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Monday, requesting him to circulate the International Code of Conduct for Information Security as a formal UN document of the 66th session of the General Assembly, Xinhua News Agency reported on Tuesday.

In the letter, the four ambassadors called on all countries to conduct further discussions on the code, drafted by the four countries, under the UN framework in a bid to "reach consensus on international norms and rules that regulate states' conduct for information and cyber activities at an early date", said Xinhua.
