NY-SABA
President Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi participated with other world leaders in a meeting for overhauling the UN management, host by the US on Monday.

The meeting called for by US President Donald Trump aims to support Secretary-General António Guterres' efforts for reforming the world body and advancing its core mission for the future.
Yemen was among the first countries to support Trump's trend for supporting Guterres, therefore it signed the 10-point Declaration for support for UN reforms.

Excerpts from what Guterres said in his speech in the meeting:
"We have embarked on plans to achieve gender parity in the UN; protect whistle-blowers; and strengthen counter-terrorism structures.

We are reforming our peace and security architecture – to ensure we are stronger in prevention, more agile in mediation, and more effective and cost-effective in peacekeeping operations.

We are reforming our development system to become much more field-focused, well-coordinated and accountable to better assist countries through the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development – our contribution to a fair globalization.

And to underpin all these efforts we are pursuing sweeping management reform – to simplify procedures and decentralize decisions, with greater transparency, efficiency and accountability."
