Somalia Chairs UN Security Council for First Time Since 1972

Somalia formally presided over a United Nations Security Council session Monday, marking the first time since 1972.

The high-level meeting focused on strengthening the rule of law and advancing efforts to maintain peace and security globally, diplomats said.

President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud had been scheduled to chair the session, but severe U.S. weather forced him to cancel the trip.

Somalia’s ambassador to the U.N., Abukar Dahir Osman, assumed the role of presiding officer, guiding the council’s discussions on international cooperation.

Diplomats praised Somalia’s role in promoting dialogue, emphasizing the country’s growing influence in multilateral efforts for security, justice, and global conflict prevention.
