The Foreign Minister said that our peace-oriented foreign policy alliance echoes the spirit of the neutral movement. Emphasizing the relevance of NAM, he highlighted the challenges of climate change, terrorism, violence, etc.

The minister added that basic human rights are still intact in many parts of the world. He called for urgent action for the Rohingyas in Myanmar, citing prolonged persecution.
