Estonian Foreign Minister attends UNSC meeting 

New York, 23 September 2021 (TDI): Eva Maria Liimets, the Baltic Foreign Minister of Estonia attended the meeting on the partnership of the United Nations Security Council and the Arab League.

Representing Estonia in the meeting Eva talked about the situation of human rights in the Middle East. She also discussed the crises of war-torn countries of the region i.e Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya etc. The leading diplomat of her country also debated on the possible steps which can create peace in those states. She highlighted the need of addressing the problems and possible solutions of the region especially countering terrorism and promoting democratic norms in the region. She urged for cooperation between the UNSC and the Arab League for the creation of peace in the region.

During the meeting, the Estonian Foreign Minister emphasized the importance of multilateral diplomacy in the Middle East region. She gave the example of the Abraham Accords which has normalized the relations of some Arab states with Israel. She further stated that regional security can only be achieved by cooperation which is in the interest of all regional actors. It can pave a way for interdependence, which is considered the safest way for peace and stability.

The Middle East is deprived of durable peace in the region since the outset of the Arab Spring which led to civil wars in different countries of the Middle East. Arab Spring was a series of pro-democratic protests and uprisings in the Arab world which commenced with the Jasmine Revolution in Tunisia. The protests were then transformed into revolts against their authoritative governments in Syria, Libya, Iraq, Yemen etc. and since they have not experienced durable peace in their countries. Different terrorist organizations also got the advantage from the instability of the region and exported their activities without any check and balance which further deteriorated the condition of the peace of the Middle East.
