Chairman of Shura Council leads Oman’s delegation at IPU meeting

Oman is actively participating in the 152nd Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) in Istanbul, Turkey, demonstrating its commitment to international parliamentary diplomacy and cooperation. Leading the Sultanate's delegation is Khalid Hilal Al Maawali, Chairman of the Shura Council, who is engaging with global counterparts from April 14 to 19.

The Omani delegation's agenda is robust, including crucial coordination meetings with the Arab Parliamentary Group, the Asian Parliamentary Assembly, and the Union of Councils of the Member States of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. These engagements are vital for harmonizing Gulf and Arab parliamentary positions, particularly concerning urgent issues on the IPU's agenda, and reinforcing a unified stance on matters of common interest to legislative councils in the region.

The broader theme of the assembly, "Harnessing hope, advancing peace, and delivering justice for future generations," resonates deeply with Oman's foreign policy objectives. The delegation's participation in discussions on building a fair global economy, combating protectionism, and establishing effective post-conflict governance underscores Oman's dedication to contributing to global peace, sustainable development, and human rights through constructive dialogue and parliamentary action.
