King and Queen expected by Minister Goffin in New York: Belgium asserts its presence at the United Nations

Our sovereigns and the Minister of Foreign Affairs are in New York as part of the Belgian presidency of the Security Council. The King will deliver a speech on Wednesday on the protection of children in armed conflict.

The King and Queen were expected in New York, Monday evening, for a two-day official visit to the United Nations that justifies a double news: the Belgian presidency of the Security Council during the month of February and the International Day of child soldiers on Wednesday. Our sovereigns will meet Philippe Goffin, the Belgian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Defense, who succeeded these functions on November 30, to Didier Reynders, awaiting a new federal government.
