Statement of Burkina Faso at the UNGA72

Gender: We have successfully achieved operational success, but they are strengthened by an emergency investment program, which we have recently adopted in order to reduce the vulnerability of populations, especially children and women.

Libya, DRC: We must remain aware in order to bring a successful conclusion to the conflicts or to end the crisis in Libya, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, Somalia, South Sudan and Burundi.

Palestine: The question of Palestine continues to be a major concern. I would like to thank the organisation, in January of 2017, of the Paris conferences, that reiterated a solution for the two states, Israel and Palestine, that live side by side in peace within safe and secure international borders.

Yemen, Syria, Iraq: The efforts of the international community in Iraq, Syria and Yemen must intensify, or else there is the risk that this part of the world will suffer in chaos.
