The Permanent Representative of the Republic of Belarus to the United Nations Valentin Rybakov delivered a statement at the plenary session of the UN General Assembly on the Report of the Secretary-General on the work of the United Nations.
In his speech, the Head of the Belarusian Mission expressed support for the idea of the Secretary-General on the necessity for adherence to the principle of multilateralism.
The Permanent Representative supported the UN Secretary-General in the need to focus on preventive actions for conflicts’ prevention. In this regard, V. Rybakov emphasized that the initiative of the President of the Republic of Belarus to launch a new “Helsinki” process to overcome the contradictions between the states in the world is a timely response to new challenges and threats.
The Belarusian diplomat noted the active work of the UN Secretary-General on the repositioning of the UN and expressed hope that the process will not lead to additional financial and bureaucratic encumbrances for Member-States and would ensure the continuity and coherent nature of functioning of the UN structures on the ground with unconditional acknowledgment of the principle of full compliance of UN activities with national priorities of Member-States.
The Permanent Representative noted support of Belarus for the idea of increasing the role of women in peacemaking and cited an example of the country's work in this direction – women also successfully fulfill their tasks among the Belarusian military specialists in the UN temporary forces in Lebanon.
In his speech, V. Rybakov called for recognizing within the Organization such a group as middle-income countries that are still not covered by systemic activities within the Organization and do not have a coordinated mechanism of assistance, despite the fact that they represent the largest part of the world's population.
