Remarks by H.E. Mr. Oscar León González, Ambassador, Chargé d´Affaires a.i. of the Permanent Mission of Cuba to the United Nations within the framework of the First Regular Session of the UNICEF Executive Board. Adoption of the UNICEF Country Programme for Cuba. New York, 12 February 2020
Mr. President:
Mr. President,
Cuba regrets that the United States´ delegation, once again, attempts to politicize the work of the Executive Board, in this case the process of adoption of the UNICEF Country Programme Document for Cuba.
Once again, attempts are made to modify the working practices and methods of this body and focus is diverted from what should be the essence of the discussions in this room: stand up for children´s rights, help them meet their basic needs and enhance their opportunities to achieve their full potential.
Mr. President:
Cuba appreciates the convening of this dialogue, which we are confident will support the international efforts in favor of food security worldwide.

Remarks by H.E. Mr. Oscar León González, Ambassador, Chargé d'Affaires a.i. of the Permanent Mission of Cuba to the United Nations at the first regular meeting of the Executive Board of UNDP/UNFPA/UNOPS. Adoption of the UNDP Country Programme for Cuba. New York, 4 February 2020
Mr. President,
Mr. Chairman,
We are facing a highly complex and dangerous international scenario, where multilateralism and international cooperation, essential for overcoming challenges such as extreme poverty, hunger, illiteracy, unemployment and climate change, are being undermined by the aggressive and unilateral behavior of a few countries with hegemonic pretensions.
Mr. Chairman,
My delegation associates itself with the statement delivered by Indonesia on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement.
Cuba advocates the legitimate right of all States to have access to outer space on equal conditions and without discrimination and to benefit from cooperation in terms of training and transfer of space applications and technology.
Mr. Chairman,
My delegation associates itself with the statement delivered by Indonesia on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement.
We share the objective of the general and complete disarmament, in particular nuclear disarmament, as the top priority in this area. We must continue to call for the implementation of other international disarmament and security measures.
