UN General Assembly
2022

Since I took office two years ago, my Government has made efforts to bring the economy back on track and guide our country’s development away from an extremely unsustainable position onto the right path. Even though we have a homegrown recovery plan, a 36-month extended fund facility of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and a national multi-year development plan currently under implementation, my Government continues to face economic challenges and capacity constraints, owing to external and unforeseen shocks. The impact of several crises, coupled with economic reform measures, has brought great hardship to the population. International support is therefore of critical importance.
