Thank you, Mr President. Let me begin by thanking the main sponsor for their steadfast efforts in presenting this strong and balanced text. We believe that Canada accommodated the key concerns from a broad range of delegations in striving to achieve consensus on a matter which, we hope, should be of the utmost importance to every delegation sitting in this room. This draft text seeks to highlight that women and girls in criminal justice detention are disproportionately subjected to practices such as forced or coerced sterilization, forced pregnancy, and forced abortion.

As Thierry mentioned, the SME relief package is about making it easier for SMEs – the backbone of the European economy – to really reap the full benefits of our single market. And taxation is one important piece of the puzzle. SMEs operating cross-border pay corporate income taxes in all Member States where they have permanent establishments, according to different national rules. This results in high tax compliance costs, which disproportionately affect smaller firms: SMEs spend some 2.5% of their turnover just to comply with their tax obligations.

UNITED NATIONS -The UN secretary-general's office expressed concern Thursday over a slowdown in Ukrainian grain exports across the Black Sea, citing the 'specter of food inflation' as Russia demands better treatment of its own agricultural products. A crucial agreement allowing Ukrainian grain to reach the global market despite Moscow's invasion — signed in July 2022 by Russia, Ukraine, Turkey and the United Nations — was renewed again in May but for only two months, until July 17. Moscow is demanding guarantees on another agreement concerning its own exports, in particular of fertilizer components.
