Kuwait calls on UN to ‘heed the lessons of our shared failures’

Kuwaiti Crown Prince Sheikh Sabah Al Khaled Al Sabah told the UN General Assembly that the world body must “heed the lessons of our shared failures” and called for reforms. “We must draw the lessons as states and governments and peoples to achieve to realise the best means for non-recurrence of our mistakes and to grant our future generations a safer world,” Sheikh Sabah said. He spoke of the need for reforms on the Security Council “in a manner that enshrines justice, transparency and credibility” to allow it “to become more capable of addressing contemporary threats”.
