Congratulations once again on your election to the UN Security Council for 2024-2025. I am confident Slovenia will meaningfully contribute to the maintenance of international peace and security. This milestone builds on your emergence as a vibrant democracy, a champion of good governance and the rule of law, and a regional leader in promoting security and Euro-Atlantic integration in the Western Balkans.
