DPM Dar Advocates Debt Relief at UN Forum
In his address, DPM Dar urged the international community to provide debt relief to these nations, allowing them to focus their resources on crucial development projects rather than servicing loans. He also stressed the importance of grant-based financial support, which would not create further financial strain on these nations. According to Dar, such assistance is vital for the development of sectors like healthcare, education, and infrastructure in developing countries.
DPM Dar’s plea comes as the global financial system faces growing concerns about the increasing inequality between developed and developing nations. He called for more equitable financial solutions, advocating for a restructured global financial system that would offer fairer support to struggling nations. The Deputy Prime Minister’s remarks reflect the urgent need for global cooperation and solidarity in tackling the economic challenges faced by the most vulnerable nations.
The UN forum, attended by world leaders and financial experts, provided a platform for discussions on how the international community can best support the development of low- and middle-income countries. DPM Dar’s call for debt relief and grant-based support echoes the growing consensus that more targeted, sustainable financial assistance is needed for countries facing economic hardship.
As the world continues to recover from the pandemic and navigate other challenges, DPM Dar’s call for debt relief and grant-based support remains an essential part of the conversation about global economic fairness.
