BAN DISCUSSES DEVELOPMENT GOALS WITH LEADERS OF PANAMA, PARAGUAY
New York, Sep 22 2013 3:00PM
Amidst the 1,000 days of accelerated action to reach the eight
anti-poverty targets known as the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs),
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today met with leaders of two Latin
American countries to discuss ways to speed up progress.

In a meeting at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, Mr. Ban
discussed Panama's progress in implementing the MDGs with President
Ricardo Martinelli Berrocal.

The eight time-bound MDGs address poverty and hunger, education,
gender equality, child mortality, maternal health, combating AIDS,
malaria and other diseases, environmental sustainability and a global
partnership for development.

UN spokesperson, the two officials also discussed citizen security and
indigenous issues.

In a separate meeting, Mr. Ban discussed development with President
Horacio Manuel Cartes Jara of Paraguay.

Mr. Ban commended Paraguay's achievements on the MDGs, the UN
spokesperson <"http://www.un.org/sg/offthecuff/index.asp?nid=2999">said
in a readout of the meeting, and encouraged further efforts,
particularly on reducing inequalities and reaching the most
marginalized communities in the South American country.

The UN chief also expressed gratitude to Mr. Cartes for Paraguay's
commitment to peacekeeping operations and for its contribution to the
UN peacekeeping mission in Haiti known by its French acronym,
MINUSTAH.

Paraguy contributes military personnel to the Mission, according to
the UN Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO).

During today's meeting, Mr. Ban also commended Paraguay's active role
in the landlocked developing countries group.

Later today, Mr. Ban is due to meet with Enrique Garcia, President of
the Development Bank of Latin America (CAF).
