Luxembourg 2020 - 75th Anniversary of United Nations Organization Stamp

In June 1945, after the Second World War, 50 nations met in San Francisco and founded the United Nations. Today, 193 countries worldwide are members of the United Nations and try to defuse conflicts in the world peacefully and in multilateral exchange, to find solutions together and to promote human rights.

Luxembourg is a founding member of the United Nations and has assumed responsibility at the highest level on several occasions over the years.
