UN General Assembly
2016

In that regard, I am of the view that it is imperative for us to be resolute in translating our political commitment into concrete action, while enhancing mutual trust, cooperation and assistance in order to collectively address our challenges. We must continue to adhere to the fundamental principles of the United Nations in resolving regional and international conflicts by peaceful means, while promoting development cooperation with a focus on implementing the 2030 Agenda. At the same time, the United Nations, which has a duty to encourage and assist Member States in implementing such measures, should improve its mechanisms and working methods to enable it to respond to challenges and carry out those duties effectively.
