During the General Assembly debate on agenda item 63, entitled Use of the Veto”, the Permanent Representative of Cuba, Ambassador Ernesto Soberón Guzmán, reiterated that the issue of the veto should not be analyzed separately from the rest of the issues under the mandate of the IGN. In this regard, he added that "the five key issues identified for the Security Council reform, which include the question of the veto, are closely related".
In his statement, the Cuban representative reiterated Cuba's call for the General Assembly to fully assume its relevant role in matters of international peace and security, as provided for in the Charter of the United Nations.
In conclusion, the Cuban delegation reiterated the need for the Security Council to cease its interference in matters outside its competence, particularly those falling within the mandate of the General Assembly.
