I am delighted to welcome you all to Bonn for this 4th Meeting of Signatories to the Memorandum of Understanding on the Conservation of Migratory Sharks. I’d like to give a special welcome to the Ambassador of Cote d’Ivoire. Bienvenue. The UN Campus in Bonn is the home of the Secretariat of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species and many of its specialized agreements and MOUs, including the Sharks MOU.

Thank you Madame Chair
