Today marks the 20th anniversary of the adoption by consensus of the United Nations General Assembly Resolution 43/189 on Specific Measures In Favour Of Island Developing Countries.
There is, of course, no comparison between this resolution and resolution 43/53 on the Protection Of Global Climate For Present And Future Generations Of Mankind, which was also adopted without a vote on December 6, 1988.
The resolution on the Specific Measures In Favour Of Island Developing Countries is not associated directly with Malta because it was negotiated by the alternate representative of Malta to the United Nations General Assembly Second Committee (Economic and Financial) on behalf of the Group of 77, that is the group of developing countries.
