Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has called on the United Nations to create a “credible and realistic” roadmap for all to implement their commitments and clearly address global challenges.
He made the call in a virtual speech at a special session of the General Assembly, which began at the UN headquarters in New York on Tuesday morning to mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations.
Sheikh Hasina said: “For the United Nations to move towards the right goal in a hundred years and beyond, UNGA-75 must create an acceptable and realistic roadmap for everyone to implement their commitments and address global challenges.”
“We must not allow any geopolitical rivalry to weaken the United Nations,” he said. We got it from the previous ones. We owe it to them and, for future generations, we must make the United Nations a truly international and effective body. “
The Prime Minister of Bangladesh said: “I would like to say that we have witnessed many moments that have shaped the new history of our human civilization.” UNGA 75 has brought us another similar moment.
“This epidemic has made it more difficult for us to achieve our 2030 agenda,” he said of the ongoing global epidemic, Kavid-19. Today’s challenges, including the ongoing epidemic, have spread throughout the world, revealing the inability to address these crises internationally. The epidemic has shown that both developed and developing countries need the United Nations more than ever.
The prime minister said that Bangladesh has benefited greatly from various development activities led by the United Nations. That is why Bangladesh is in debt to the United Nations. On the peacekeepers, he said, “Bangladesh is committed to helping maintain world peace. We now have the largest number of troops and police in the UN peacekeeping force. He mentioned that 150 Bangladeshi peacekeepers have sacrificed their lives to ensure peace in conflict-ridden countries of the world.
On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations, Sheikh Hasina said that the organization of the founding anniversary in Bangladesh is of special importance as it coincides with the centenary of the birth of the Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
He said: ‘Bangabandhu had said at the UN session in 1974 that the UN would reflect the hopes and aspirations of the people in the future. It is a testament to Bangladesh’s confidence in the United Nations and multilateralism. “” I pay tribute to all United Nations officials and agencies for their tireless effort and dedication, “he added.
Foreign Minister. AK Abdul Momen told a virtual press conference on Monday that Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, like other world leaders, will address the UN General Assembly on September 28. As every year, she will give a lecture in Bengali.
This is the first time in the 65-year history of the United Nations that world leaders have virtually attended the General Assembly session due to the Cavid-19 epidemic. Source: Bass.
