The debate included topics such as recent developments in the Arab region and the importance of maintaining peace, stability, fighting terrorism and violent extremism, interference in the internal affairs of States, and the effect of conflict and war on human rights and efforts to address these humanitarian situations and reduce the harmful Iranian interference in the affairs of other countries.

The Assistant Foreign Minister stressed that the only way for States to develop is to achieve peace, security, and stability, which creates a sound environment for growth and prosperity of peoples.
