— Your country’s long-standing commitment to peace and multilateral dialogue has created an appropriate framework for the event. I highly appreciate your role in bringing together participants from all over the world, including heads of state and government, representatives of civil society, youth and the media, around a common agenda.
The conference played a vital role in aligning national actions, regional cooperation and global policy frameworks to enable landlocked developing countries to achieve sustainable and inclusive growth, while strengthening their ability to withstand future shocks.

These commitments will accelerate progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals with a focus on trade facilitation, structural transformation, transport connectivity, technology, climate resilience and mobilization of international support. – said the UN Secretary-General in his letter.
