نثمّن زيارة الأمين العام للأمم المتحدة السيد أنطونيو غوتيريش إلى الجمهورية العربية السورية، في مرحلة مفصلية تشهدها البلاد عنوانها التعافي والاستقرار وترسيخ مؤسسات الدولة، وسط تنامي الاهتمام الدولي بمواكبة هذه المرحلة ودعم مسارها.
ناقشنا مع السيد غوتيريش عدداً من الملفات ذات الاهتمام المشترك، وفي مقدمتها دور الأمم المتحدة في دعم أولويات التعافي، وحقوق الإنسان، والعدالة الانتقالية، وملف المفقودين، والتنمية الاقتصادية، بما يعزز جهود الدولة في بناء مستقبل أكثر استقراراً.
نتطلع إلى تعزيز التعاون مع الأمم المتحدة في المجالات الإنسانية والتنموية، وإعادة تأهيل البنى التحتية، وصون حقوق الإنسان، انطلاقاً من أولويات الدولة السورية واحتياجات شعبها.
سوريا التي كان يُنظر إليها بالأمس بوصفها أزمة، تستعيد اليوم مكانتها شريكاً فاعلاً ومسؤولاً في الأمم المتحدة، منخرطة في العمل الدولي، ومساهمة في بناء الأمن والاستقرار الإقليمي والدولي.
