UN General Assembly
2022

The exacerbation of geopolitical tensions and the emergence of new international conflicts are endangering international peace and security. The recent war in Ukraine has reminded us that peace is a perennial quest that we must pursue relentlessly. The confrontation, which poses the threat of the use of nuclear weapons, continues to undermine world peace and plunge humankind into multiple crises. It demonstrates to us once again the shortcomings of resorting to the military option in the resolution of conflicts. That is why Cote d’Ivoire, which has always advocated for peaceful coexistence and the use of dialogue in the search for solutions to disputes among nations, renews its call for the immediate and definitive cessation of hostilities in Ukraine.
