CONFLICTS IN GAZA, UKRAINE AND SUDAN DOMINATE THE AGENDA AT NEW YORK, ALONG WITH CLIMATE CHANGE
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres addresses the 80th session of the UNGA in New York yesterday. (Right) Palestinian and Israeli flags and a dove with an olive branch, projected onto the Eiffel Tower, Paris, on Sunday.
The quest for a Palestinian state will dominate this year’s United Nations General Assembly high-level week, as leaders from more than 150 countries convene in New York against a backdrop of wars, divisions and deepening global crises.
The spotlight is firmly on Gaza, now in its second year of war, and on the wider Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Palestinian ambassador Riyad Mansour said, “Palestine is going to be the huge elephant in this session,” with France and Saudi Arabia co-chairing a high-level meeting yesterday on implementing a two-state solution.
