New York: The State of Qatar will exert maximum efforts to continue its role as a partner in international cooperation.
This came during a speech by a member of Qatar’s delegation to the UN General Assembly, H E Sheikh Khalid Mansour Al Thani. He was speaking during the meeting of the second committee, the Economic and Financial Committee, that was held yesterday.
Sheikh Khalid highlighted Addis Ababa’s action agenda as a reflection of the strong efforts made to enhance global partnerships in development. It is also an important part of the 2030 sustainable development agenda and an addition to the Doha Declaration on Financing for Development, he added.
He said that Qatar continues to provide support to programmes concerned with enhancing cooperation in economic and social development as well as combating poverty. One example of such efforts includes hosting the Follow-up International Conference on Financing for Development in 2008.
