Egypt hosts UN anti-corruption conference

CAIRO, 14 December 2021, (TON): The ninth session of the Conference of the States Parties to the UN Convention against Corruption kicked off in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.

Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly was present, as were representatives from several hundred NGOs, and thousands of other participants.

In his speech, he said corruption is an obstacle to sustainable development that transcends borders, necessitating cooperation to combat it.

He added that tackling corruption is a basic principle of Egypt’s National Human Rights Strategy 2021-2026.

The UN described the conference, which ends, as a “global milestone to improve international cooperation against corruption and help the world recover in integrity from the pandemic.”
