UN General Assembly
2011

First, I would like to extend to Mr. Nassir Abdulaziz Al-Nasser and our brotherly country, Qatar, my sincere congratulations on his election as President of the 11-51390 24 General Assembly at its sixty-sixth session. We are deeply confident that he will contribute actively to the success of its work. I would also like to express my gratitude and appreciation to Mr. Joseph Deiss for his laudable and tireless efforts as President at the preceding session of the Assembly. I take this opportunity to again congratulate Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on his reappointment to a second term. We are ready and determined to provide all possible support to ensure the success of the plan, to be announced in the coming weeks, detailing his vision of the priorities of the Organization over the next five years. On behalf of my country, Tunisia, I would like also to welcome the sisterly Republic of South Sudan to the United Nations and wish the new State prosperity and progress and its leaders great success in their noble mission.
