Qatar elected to key UN committees

The United Nations General Assembly elected Second Secretary at the Permanent Delegation of Qatar to the United Nations Ahmed bin Saif al-Kuwari as Vice-Chairman of the UN Economic and Financial Committee of the 74th session of the United Nations General Assembly, which will begin in September.

The UN General Assembly also elected Second Secretary at the Permanent Delegation of Qatar, Sheikh Mohamed bin Hamad al-Thani, as Rapporteur of UN Legal Committee.

Electing Qatar in these important UN committees comes as a recognition of its status in the United Nations and the international community, and for its great contributions and active role in the work of the international organisation.
