Nepal needs collaboration from all sides to make it a‘land-linked country: Foreign Secretary Paudyal

Nepal has stressed the need for renewed partnership among Landlocked Developing Countries, transit countries and development partners to transform it from a ‘landlocked’ country to a ‘land-linked one.

Virtually addressing the 20th annual ministerial meeting of the Landlocked Developing Countries on the sideline of the ongoing General Assembly of the United Nations, Foreign Secretary Bharat Raj Paudyal said Nepal needed international support measures, aid for trade, technology transfer, and direct investment to achieve economic growth and get rid of the Covid-19 pandemic.
