Thank you, Mr. Vice-President.
Japan warmly welcomes the delegation of Greece to this session.
Japan commends Greece’s ongoing efforts to promote and protect human rights. In particular, we highly appreciate the government’s concrete initiatives to combat violence against women, including the strengthening of the legal framework to prevent violence and protect victims as well as the development of digital tools.
In a spirit of constructive dialogue, Japan would like to make two recommendations:
1. promote the full and effective participation of persons with disabilities in society, seizing the opportunity of the upcoming 2029 Deaflympics in Athens; and
I thank you.
