@diplomatictimesghana: The United States has argued that the UN resolution seeking to correct distortions on world maps, including Africa’s true size, undermines the credibility of the United Nations and affect how seriously the organisation is regarded. The U.S. representative maintained that the United Nations should instead focus its attention on more pressing global challenges, including the promotion of peace, prosperity and stronger relations among nations.
