Biden, while addressing the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly, commended the Kenyan contingent for their efforts in restoring serenity in Haiti.

During the summit, the US President called for immediate reforms and expansion of the United Nations (UN) Security Council membership to make it more effective.

He explained that the move would ensure that the security council was well-equipped for peacekeeping missions such as the Multinational Security Support Mission (MSS) in Haiti.

“The UN Security Council needs to go back to its job of bringing peace, ending wars and suffering. The UN needs to adapt and bring new perspectives, that is why we support reforming and expanding its membership,” Biden stated.

“They should also help stabilise troubled regions from East Africa to Haiti and help the Kenyan-led mission who are working alongside Asian people to turn the tide,” he added.

While insisting on the matter, Biden pledged America’s commitment to working hand in hand with the United Nations to restore peace in war-ravaged countries across the globe.

According to the US President, it was the responsibility of the UN Security Council to come up with long-term solutions to the violence currently witnessed in different parts of the world.

“We have a responsibility to prepare our citizens for the future, we will see more technological change in the past ten to fifteen years than we have in the last 50 years,” the US President revealed.
