Guterres appreciated Mexico's invitation for UN agencies, funds and programs to support the implementation of the plan, said Stephane Dujarric, the spokesman, in a statement.
The United Nations reiterates its commitment to supporting the coordinated action of all agencies, funds and programs to ensure the implementation of the plan in close collaboration with the four countries involved, said the statement.
