Description
The European Union remains the United Nations’ reliable partner of choice and a cornerstone of its financing, even amid shifting geopolitical dynamics, the Security Council heard during its annual briefing on cooperation between the two entities.
Kaja Kallas, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, highlighted the bloc’s comprehensive cooperation with the United Nations, including their strategic partnership on peace and security. The Union provides predictable and sustained financing for peacebuilding, including €3 million contribution to the UN Peacebuilding Fund in the current cycle, she said, also noting that its member States account for over a fifth of the UN peacekeeping budget.
