The Prime Minister, on behalf of the Government of Aruba, welcomes Mr. Denis Zulu, Resident Coordinator of the United Nations for Aruba, Curacao, St. Maarten, Trinidad, Suriname, and all the representatives of the different United Nations Organizations.

She thanked them for their work in benefit of Aruba. “In a year of union and positivism for a stronger and more resilient Aruba, all expert support for the sustainable development of Aruba is essential”, the Prime Minister stated.
