Ambassador Mahmoud Kombo, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and East African
Cooperation, who led the Tanzanian delegation to the United Nations

reputation as an icon of peace was tested during the General Elections held on
29 October 2025, and acknowledged the country’s resilience in maintaining national
unity and stability.
He expressed the United Nations’ strong interest in
seeing Tanzania continue to remain united and serve as a positive example.
The UN Secretary-General emphasized the importance
of a meaningful and inclusive national dialogue aimed at addressing the root

to Tanzania’s ongoing efforts, including support during and after the
