Permanent Mission of Cuba to the United Nations Office at Geneva

Statement by Ambassador Rodolfo Benítez Verson, Permanent Representative of Cuba, at the ceremony for the establishment of the Group of Friends of Global Governance in Geneva.

Dear Ambassador Jia Guide,

Distinguished Delegations,

We welcome the establishment of this Group of Friends of Global Governance in Geneva.

It is a practical step forward that will contribute to the implementation of this important Initiative.

It is often stated that the current global governance is failing the developing world. I disagree. The existing system is not failing. On the contrary, it is functioning exactly as it was conceived.
