Cali, Colombia, Oct 30 (Prensa Latina) The celebration of the United Nations Conference on Biodiversity (COP16) being held in this city, in addition to positioning Colombia as a champion of environmental protection, represents a moment for the brilliance of its diplomacy.

For the first time a high-level segment for this type of event has been installed and the call brought to this southwestern city some high-ranking dignitaries, including the presidents of Armenia, Suriname, Ecuador and Guinea Bissau, the vice president of Bolivia and the head of Haiti’s Presidential Transitional Council, Leslie Voltaire.

The Secretary General of the United Nations, António Guterres, also arrived in the capital of Valle del Cauca, and took the opportunity to thank the host country for holding the meeting and praised its commitment to achieve peace with nature.
