Slovenia’s Ambassador at the UN Darja Bavdaž Kuret, whose term expires in June, hosted a working reception for EU delegates and negotiators on the UN General Assembly Fifth Committee, which has been meeting virtually since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Based on UN rules, the fifth committee distributes member states’ contributions between the regular and peace-keeping budgets. “To implement its mission, the UN needs sufficient funds, which are being set on the Fifth Committee,” said Miha Erman, a Slovenian diplomat on the committee.
