This verse teaches tolerant and what is very fundamental is that our diversities in culture, race, colour, language, ethnicity, religion, gender, or political affiliations should only serves as divergent in opinions and beliefs and should strengthen us to coexist in peace and harmony as humans.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, for some of us as Muslims must always live to remember that the Prophet Muhammed, Peace be Upon him (S.A.W) was argued to have propelled the first ever model of democracy in human history by promoting peaceful coexistence.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, promoting inclusive societies to fighting intolerance, social and economic-inequalities, and discriminations is an incumbent duty not only on us as politicians and Parliamentarians but on all citizens for a just and peaceful world, for it is the surest way of continuous and sustained development of our constituents globally. This is the only way forward if we really want to weather through successfully in today\u2019s world of hostilities, polarizations, and divergent interests.<\/p>\n<p>Mr President, Distinguish Delegates,<\/p>\n<p>In today\u2019s globalised world characterised by conflicts, and geopolitical interests, it has been a year since Russia invaded Ukraine, and sparked a conflict that has generally affected all nations and countries directly or indirectly, and affected living conditions of people we represent. It has contributed to the rise and hike of prices of commodities and inflations of all economies worldwide while ordinary people suffer daily. Sadly, Innocent civilians have been cruelly caught up in the conflict, with thousands of lives lost and millions displaced since February 24th, 2022, and the actual numbers likely to be much higher.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, Mr. President, the only option worth promoting is to end the year long-war between Russia and Ukraine, Since the second half of 2021, there has been a sharp hike in energy prices in Europe and worldwide. The price of fuels has further risen because of the war, which has also led to concerns related to energy supply globally. Furthermore, Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine is likely to result in the isolation of the world\u2019s 11th-largest economy and one of the biggest producers of grains, wheat, barley, corn, and cooking oil. The immediate global implications will be higher inflation, lower growth, and some disruption to financial markets as deeper sanctions take hold while, the longer-term fallout will be a further debilitation of the system of globalised supply chains and integrated financial markets that has dominated the world economy since the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991.<\/p>\n<p>Mr President, Distinguish Delegates,<\/p>\n<p>While the war continues to cause devastations around the world; we must not forget to commend significant players like that of Turkiye and the United Nations for brokering a deal last summer to allow Ukrainian grain to pass through the Black Sea. The leadership of Turkiye must be specifically applauded for also mediating the negotiations of prisoner swap involving nearly 300 prisoners, a crucial step to saving lives and preventing further violation of human rights resulting from the war. Up till date, President Erdogan continues to maintain his role \u201cas an active channel of communication\u201d and \u201ca reliable mediator\u201d in the eyes of both parties without compromising the principles of International Law on territorial integrity. My delegation and I urged this body, the United Nations General Assembly and Security Council to take its responsibility and begin serious negotiations to bring the two countries together and engage in direct dialogue to ending this conflict immediately in the interest of international peace, justice and tolerance.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. President, Distinguish Delegates<\/p>\n<p>At the national front, the Gambia\u2019s Constitution, provides an entrenched bill of rights: safeguarding people\u2019s liberties, fundamental human rights, freedoms of associations and of beliefs that are necessary in a democratic society; whilst recognizing our religious differences and traditional norms for an inclusive society where tolerance is guaranteed.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. President, following the change of government in 2017, The Gambia continues to gain its standing in the international stage, thanks to its tolerant and democratic Leader who ensured and assured the protection of people\u2019s liberties and political pluralism entrenching our democratization processes.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, I urged the IPU as the sole global parliamentary network to continue to provide the necessary support to institutions of parliament in promoting tolerance and upholding inclusiveness through their organizations and working procedures.<\/p>\n<p>We should not rest on our laurels as we continue to advocate and preach messages of peace in our deliberations in Parliaments, and at our various platforms to strengthen our \u201cPolitical Currencies\u201d and ensure that we promote peaceful coexistence and inclusive societies against all forms of discriminations and intolerances.<\/p>\n<p>The onus is now on us Parliamentarians to make a breakthrough!<\/p>\n<p>I thank you all for your kind attention.<\/p>\n<p>Seedy S.K Njie<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Speaker<\/p>\n<p>The Gambia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
