The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, has delivered a compelling call to action for global leaders to prioritise sustainable development, particularly in Africa.
Tuggar spoke on Monday at the Summit of the Future held at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on September 22-23, 2024.
Tuggar highlighted that only 16 percent of Sustainable Development Goals are on track for completion by 2030, underscoring the urgent need for enhanced international cooperation.
He urged developed nations to fulfill their commitments to support the global South, emphasizing that failure to meet the SDG targets should prompt an extension of the 2030 deadline.
