   🇭🇹 Haiti · Day 4Alix Didier Fils-Aimé

   • President of the General Assembly, Secretary-General, heads of state and government, ministers, permanent representatives, distinguished delegates, Haitian people. In taking the floor at this General Assembly, I feel the weight of history. More than 80 years ago, in the wake of a war that plunged the world into chaos, Haiti a founding member of the United Nations, joined the nations of the world to make a pledge for peace, for dialogue, and respect for human dignity. Today, while deadly crises and conflicts have proliferated, and the climate emergency is intensifying and new divisions are threatening stability in Haiti and throughout the world, this founding endeavor is being put to the test. 6:45:45Copy

   🇩🇴 Dominican Republic · Day 2Luis Rodolfo Abinader Corona

   • Today, transnational criminal networks control territories, they traffic arms and people, and they recruit children. Haiti, our neighbor, is the clearest example of this. Since 2021, the Dominican Republic has warned in each and every forum that this crisis is a threat to the peace and security of the region, and particularly for my country. A year ago, from this same rostrum, I called upon the council to act without delay. 4:29:35Copy

   • Mr. President, in our own hemisphere, the Bahamas again calls for the lifting of the strengthened blockade against Cuba and an end to the fuel blockade and Cuba's removal from the unilateral list of alleged state sponsors of terrorism.

   🇧🇧 Barbados · Day 3Mia Amor Mottley

   • Let me say at the outset that when I speak about letting many hands make light work when it comes to conflict resolution, that this is one of the areas in which the political leaders of the Caribbean can play a pivotal role in its own region. Firstly, Haiti. The security crisis continues to ****** political renewal and economic recovery. And still, the preparations for a return to constitutional government, yes, are moving forward. 8:33:29Copy

   🇧🇿 Belize · Day 5John Briceño

   • The League did not collapse for want of noble principles, but because member states abandoned those principles the moment they became inconvenient or constrained their power. I therefore cannot speak candidly about multilateralism while looking away from where it is tested most severely. I begin close to home. Haiti's crisis is our crisis. 1:05:42Copy

   🇲🇳 Mongolia · Day 1Khurelsukh Ukhnaa

   • In this spirit, the United Nations General Assembly adopts on a biennial basis the resolution entitled "Mongolia's International Security and Nuclear-Weapon-Free Status" initiated by Mongolia in 1998. Furthermore, Mongolia has made tangible contributions to global efforts to maintain international peace and security through its active participation in the United Nations peacekeeping operations and other international missions, having deployed more than 23,000 military and police personnel to hotspots around the world since 2002. Even today, our troops are serving in the Gang Suppression Force, a multinational police and military mission deployed to Haiti. Mongolia has been actively advancing the implementation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325, Women, Peace and Security, and has become one of the few countries to have reached 15 percent women's participation and representation among its military personnel serving in UN PKOs. 6:46:00Copy

    🇵🇾 Paraguay · Day 2Santiago Peña Palacios

    • To borrow the words of the Latin poet, Publius, "I am human, nothing human is alien to me." The suffering of the Venezuelan people is also the suffering of the Paraguayan people. It is the suffering of us all. And what applies to Venezuela applies perhaps even more so to Nicaragua, Cuba and Haiti, countries that have lived for far too long in the darkness of authoritarianism, violence and sorrow. 1:50:18Copy

Approximately 1.47 million people are internally displaced, while nearly half of the population faces acute food insecurity. In the very near future, the first round of presidential and legislative elections will take place. The Haitian people must choose their leaders freely, credibly, and safely. 9:18:53Copy

    🇹🇹 Trinidad and Tobago · Day 1Kamla Persad-Bissessar

    • Trinidad and Tobago will advocate for an approach that safeguards international security without closing off innovation, development, and opportunity, and that ensures developing countries have a meaningful role in shaping the rules for this new technological era. Mr. President, the situation in Haiti remains of particular concern, not just for us in the region, but, I think, across the world. Trinidad and Tobago stands in full support of international efforts to help restore security and stability in Haiti whilst maintaining that the country's political future must ultimately be Haitian-led and Haitian-owned. Security assistance is necessary, but lasting stability will also require functioning institutions, economic opportunities, and a credible political process. 10:28:31Copy

    • In this context, the sometimes difficult situation faced by detainees in Venezuela, as well as the suffering endured by their families, continue to give rise to humanitarian concern and should not be overlooked. The same consideration applies to the pressing need for a swift recovery of the national economy for the benefit of the entire population, the majority of which continues to endure extremely difficult living conditions. The Holy See continues to follow the situation in Haiti with great attention. The country is currently experiencing a period of serious political, institutional and social instability, as well as a dramatic humanitarian emergency. 1:58:10Copy

This led on the 19th of April 2025 to the signature of a ceasefire agreement between the Central African Republic government and two of the main armed groups of the country. More recently in Haiti, Chad responded to the call from our organization. We decided to deploy 1,500 service personnel to the Gang Suppression Force authorized by the Security Council, and that is about a quarter of the planned amount. 11:33:08Copy
