UN General Assembly
2020

We must turn the COVID-19 pandemic into an opportunity to rebuild a more effective and efficient multilateral system. To do so, we must conduct a comprehensive assessment of the failures of the multilateral system and its institutions in facing the crisis, as well as its achievements towards building a sound basis for good practices in the future. We must also refocus multilateral action on the principles of solidarity, cooperation and responsibility, while taking the appropriate measures to put an end to all conflicts through concrete and practical multilateral initiatives. Morocco, in its firm adherence to the multilateral framework, remains committed to working with likeminded States to create a more just, united and transparent global system. That was the commitment made by His Majesty King Mohammed VI at the Millennium Summit, where he reaffirmed that, as we embarked upon a new millennium, it was our solemn duty to set new goals for humankind, while acting with justice and solidarity. May the peace, mercy and blessings of God be upon you.
