Africa-Press – Lesotho. In her closing remarks, General Assembly President Annalena Baerbock said 189 UN member states delivered speeches at the General Debate, including those from 124 heads of state and government.
“At the beginning of this week, we referred to the United Nations as the house of diplomacy and dialogue, standing at a crossroads, a place where we gather to have hard conversations during challenging times,” she said. “If this high-level week is an indication, this house is fulfilling that purpose: the United Nations is still relevant.”
Throughout the week, there were moments of energy — even electricity — where member states felt the collective will to do better, to reach further, to choose the right path at the crossroads, she said.
“This week’s General Debate, with strong engagements and impassioned words, showed that we are capable of finding the strength to lift up our common leadership, to find collective solutions, and to take the right path at the crossroads,” she said. “Let us be inspired by the legacy of our past, and daring for a better future that is better together. Unafraid. Unbroken. United.”
