(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) NEW YORK, Dec 15 (KUNA) -- Kuwait has expressed support to all efforts aiming to achieve genuine and comprehensive reform of the UN Security Council to make it more effective, representative, transparent, impartial and credible.
'Reforming multilateralism is an urgent need and a historical responsibility towards our people,' Kuwait's Assistant Foreign Minister for International Organizations, Minister plenipotentiary Abdulaziz Al-Jarallah told a UN Security Council's open debate on a new orientation for reformed multilateralism.
Al-Jarallah stated that reforming the Security Council was one of the main pillars of the desired comprehensive reform of the United Nations.
He hoped these discussions would contribute to advancing efforts aimed at strengthening the multilateral approach in order to overcome the complicated challenges facing the international community.
The Kuwaiti official argued that the Council, with its current composition, cannot address today's interrelated and emerging challenges.
He looked forward to the 2024 Future Summit as an opportunity towards a consensus on taking back multilateral action to its desired track, through which the world can overcome the crises it faces.
AL-Jarallah affirmed that reforming the United Nations must be a top priority for the international community, which must put forward innovative ideas to generate the necessary momentum for reform.
He underscored the need for an effective global system based on cooperation, rule of law and aimed at achieving justice.
All states must engage effectively with intergovernmental negotiations, and they must be open to consult with all negotiation groups transparently and constructively, he said, stressing that the concerns of all regional groups must be considered. (end)
