The Prime Minister praised the efforts of the General Secretariat of the Council in coordinating efforts related to motherhood and childhood issues, stressing that all relevant components of the government should observe their obligations in assigning this component to two important segments of society, and to enhance the level of its positive interventions directed at them.
He pointed out the importance that the upcoming celebration of the International Children’s Day, which will be held by the General Secretariat, reflects the great suffering of motherhood and childhood as a result of the US-Saudi-Emirati aggression and blockade and its significant negative effects on these two segments.
