Just wrapped up an incredible week at the Dubai Diamond Week (DDW). This event brought together key players in the diamond industry, providing a unique platform to address current challenges and explore opportunities in the sector. Among this the KP Plenary concluded in Dubai with several major achievements to mark a successful conclusion to the 2024 UAE Chairmanship's Year of Delivery. Many thanks to Ahmed Bin Sulayem for his visionary leadership, dedication to the industry and organized hospitality at the highest level. Armenia, an oldest member of the Kimberley Process since 2003, is proud of its longstanding commitment to the initiative. After 22 years, we are deepening our engagement by actively participating in key working groups and committees. The delegation I led worked to the fullest of its capabilities to achieve the stated goal of integrating into all working groups pivotal for us. As a country involved in the diamond value chain—from import to cutting and polishing, and retail—we strive to share our experience and contribute positively to the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme. #KimberleyProcess #KP #YearOfDelivery #YearOfBestPractice #Diamonds #UN #UAE
