KENNEDY GODFREY GASTORN (United Republic of Tanzania) spotlighted the United Nations role in adopting and implementing the 2030 Agenda, thereby helping to reduce rates of hunger, maternal and child mortality and HIV, improve gender equality and increase access to clean water. However, challenges such as protracted conflicts, inequality, poverty and climate change remain, and COVID-19 is expected to worsen them. Meanwhile, a growing trend of unilateral decisions by some Member States is having negative impacts on the multilateral system, undermining the profound principles of the United Nations. He welcomed critical reforms of the Organization aimed at making it more effective and relevant, pointing out that the United Republic of Tanzania contributes troops to United Nations peacekeeping operations and pledging to continue to support efforts to make life better for all people.
