 Tack så mycket. Excellensis. Secretary-general. President. Distinguished ministers. Ambassadors. Delegates. Först på min egen behåll. Och också på behalf av Sverige. Jag skulle vilja tacka på det. Det är regeringen av Rumania. Men också den internationella telekommunikationen. För att bringa oss ihop och preparera den här fantastiska konferensen. The organisation is excellent. But also the warm hospitality of the Romanian people greatly contributes to our common efforts of having a successful Plenipotentiary conference here today and in the coming weeks. The importance of digitalisation is as we all know growing. Today it is a prerequisite for being able to interact fully with society. Today we have challenges not only of building connectivity but also of maintaining it. We feel strongly for the Ukraine which is suffering daily cyber attacks and whose telecommunication sector is under enormous pressure. On behalf of Sweden I would like to express our full solidarity with the Ukraine. Sweden is convinced that the global digital divide must be bridged to realise the full potential of digital transformation. This is an important step towards global equality. A strong and active ITU is vital to addressing these challenges together. Sweden already contributes to this work in several areas and now we wish to do so in the coming period within the council. We are dedicated to continuing to contribute to an increased focus within the ITU on connectivity. Digital skills, transparent, equitable and effective governance and flexibility and effective use of radio spectrum. The global digital divide must be bridged in order to realise the full potential of digital transformation. An important step towards global equality and cohesion that benefits at the end of the day everyone. Over the past six years Sweden has through the regulator PTS and SPIDER a project from the Stockholm University contributed to capacity building peer review projects within more than 30 countries in Africa. The project with resources from my organisation the PTS has been supporting regulators in that area in developing and implementing their own strategic priorities and individual strategic targets. But at the same time engaging in discussions on joint challenges we currently work on scaling up this project and the program to have a broader outreach if possible. Again a strong and active ITU is a vital tool to addressing these challenges together ensuring that no one is left behind in the digital world. Sweden is highly committed to continued engagement in the ITU. Sweden has been successful in strengthening connectivity on a national, regional and international level and now we wish to bring this experience and knowledge to the ITU council. We look forward to work with all of you to bring successful outcomes of this conference and I thank you all and multumesk to our Romanian host. Thank you.
