On the other hand, Pakistan has underscored the need for keeping the U.N. Peacebuilding Commission (PBC) financially strong so as to enable the 31-member intergovernmental body meet the reconstruction needs of post-conflict countries.
“Over the years, PBC has contributed significantly to peace building efforts undertaken by countries emerging from conflict,” Ambassador Maleeha Lodhi told the UN General Assembly during a review of the activities of the Commission, which was established in 2005.
Ambassador Lodhi said Pakistan, along with Japan and Norway, is championing innovative financing to augment existing financing streams for the Peacebuilding Fund.
