PHNOM PENH: Following the UN Secretary-General’s appointment of the new United Nations (UN) Resident Coordinator in Cambodia, Joseph Scheuer of Luxembourg presented his letter of credentials to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Royal Government of Cambodia, DPM Prak Sokhonn, to officially take up his assignment in the country.

During the UN Resident Coordinator’s courtesy call to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, he expressed his appreciation for the excellent partnership between the Royal Government and the UN and discussed future opportunities in the context of the new UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework for 2024-2028. He also recognized and expressed his appreciation of Cambodia's contributions to UN Peacekeeping Operations since 2006.

“I look forward to collaborate with the Royal Government and partners in developing the new UN Cooperation Framework with Cambodia for 2024-2028 in support of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),” said Scheuer.
