We welcome United Nations Secretary General, António Guterres’s appointment of Major General Humphrey Nyone as Force Commander of the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA).
This the most senior position held by a Zambian in the UN since our country became a member of the UN on 1st December 1964. In this role, Major General Nyone will oversee the military component of MINUSCA, whose mandate covers among other issues, protection of civilians, facilitating delivery of humanitarian assistance, promoting and protecting human rights, and disarmament to mention a few.
Our Government commends the UN SG for the expression of confidence in Zambian security forces and commits to increase its participation in UN peacekeeping operations, through the participation of the military, police, and civilian personnel.
We have been very consistent on the issue of peace as we insist that instability anywhere is instability everywhere. We cannot advance economic development of Africa within a context of instability. Zambia, as a peace-loving nation, will make every effort to promote peace and security around the world. This is an integral part of our foreign policy. To see that humanity lives in peace and seeks out its full potential.
Congratulations Major General Nyone wishing you a successful tour of duty.
