Today the world celebrates the United Nations Day. In the morning
the UN Flag has been waving on the top of the building United Nations
Office Armenia, and Consuello Vidal, the UN Resident Coordinator in
Armenia, presented the message of the Secretary-General of the UN
Ban Ki-moon to the guests.

"This is a crucial year in the life of our United Nations. We have
just passed the midpoint in the struggle to reach the Millennium
Development Goals – our common vision for building a better world
in the 21st century. We can see more clearly than ever that the
threats of the 21st century spare no one. Climate change, the spread
of disease and deadly weapons, and the scourge of terrorism all cross
borders. If we want to advance the global common good, we must secure
global public goods," says the message of Secretary-General.

The Un Resident Coordinator said that since 1992 UN various agencies
support the Government of Armenia to meet poverty, corruption,
contribute to the development of healthcare, education, HIV-AIDS, etc.

"UN family supports Armenia to build prosperous society, to meet
today’s challenges," said Consuello Vidal.
