The general debate sessions of the High-Level Week of the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly began yesterday in New York. This year’s proceedings are centred on the theme ‘Restoring Trust and Managing Transformation: The United Nations for All’.
Discussions during this UN event are expected to focus on a range of issues and challenges facing the international community, particularly matters relating to peace and security in various regions of the world, and a renewed commitment to multilateralism, especially in light of the continuing practices that undermine international law, human rights and international economic cooperation, the difficulties faced by developing countries in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, as well as the challenges arising from climate change and those linked to the rapid proliferation of artificial intelligence systems.
Algeria is participating in this week’s high-level meeting with a delegation led by the Minister of State, Minister for Foreign Affairs, the National Community Abroad and African Affairs, Mr Ahmed Attaf,
This participation forms part of Algeria’s steadfast commitment, under the leadership of the President of the Republic, Mr Abdelmadjid Tebboune, to strengthening multilateral cooperation and promoting fair and sustainable solutions to the various challenges and crises facing the regional and international arenas, as well as highlighting the strenuous efforts Algeria is making at the national level in the economic and social spheres, particularly in accelerating the energy transition, managing water resources, and in the fields of health, education and higher education, alongside the initiatives it has launched to promote peace, security and development in many countries of the Sahel and in Africa in general.
Algeria’s participation in this UN event is expected to involve a series of meetings, gatherings and consultations with a number of sister and friendly nations, as well as senior UN officials, with the aim of continuing coordination and exchanging views on the issues on the agenda of the current session of the General Assembly, and to highlight the role Algeria plays, both regionally and internationally, in promoting peace, stability and development.
