“UN has remained strong for 74 years since its foundation and is a constant reminder of the importance of shaping a shared future that benefits us all. The Maldives strongly believes in the UN, the principles and spirit of its Charter, and the belief that every single member of the organization brings value to unlock the true potential for peace, progress and prosperity. It is this conviction that consistently brings the Maldives to play its part as a responsible member of UN”President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih.
Highlighting that a better life for future generations can be shaped when worked together, Solih urged the people to step up and raise ambition for meaningful action in order to reverse the harmful changes to our planet and its biodiversity
President Solih had addressed the General Debate at the 74th Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in September, making history as the first Maldives leader to speak at the UNGA in seven years.
The United Nations Day is celebrated on 24 October worldwide since 1948 and marks the anniversary of the UN Charter.
