NEW YORK (United Nations)- Algeria has been elected by acclamation as a vice-chair of the United Nations Disarmament Commission for 2018, said Algeria’s permanent mission in New York.
This election shows, once again, the recognition of Algeria’s role and commitment to the achievement of the objectives of nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation of nuclear weapons.
This year, the Commission will address two main agenda items: achieving the objective of nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation of nuclear weapons and the prevention of an arms race in outer space.
