This was stated by Prime Minister Boyko Borissov.
Boyko Metodiev Borisov is the Prime Minister of the Republic of Bulgaria. Born June 13, 1959 during his speech at the first Summit of the Decade of Sustainable Development, which takes place within the framework of the General Debate of the UN General Assembly.
This year, the forum and accompanying events are being held completely online due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In front of world leaders, the Bulgarian Prime Minister stressed that since the adoption of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals in 2015, member states have made a long-term commitment to achieving them. These include the eradication of poverty, economic development, the reduction of inequalities, quality education, peace and justice.
“We only have 10 years left to implement them and a full mobilization of the international community is needed,” Prime Minister Borissov said. He stressed that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a lag in the implementation of goals, with a worsening of social inequalities, poverty and the serious consequences of climate change that come to the fore.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has clearly demonstrated that the 2030 Agenda is more important than ever. The announced Decade of Action will also be a Decade of Recovery with a focus on development goals,” said Boyko Borissov.
