Brazil is traditionally the first speaker in this discussion. It will open the high-level session with its address on September 24. After that, US President Joe Biden will address the United Nations.
Narendra Modi, who was sworn in as India’s Prime Minister for a historic third term last month, had earlier addressed the annual high-level UNGA session in September 2021.
UN Secretary-General António Guterres will present his/her report before the general debate begins, after which the President of the 79th session of the General Assembly will address the gathering.
Guterres is also hosting an ambitious ‘Summit for the Future’ at UN Headquarters this week, which will see Action Days on September 20-21 and a summit on September 22-23.
World leaders will gather at the United Nations to adopt a future deal, which will include a global digital compact and a declaration on future generations.
The United Nations said, ‘This summit is a high-level event that will bring together world leaders to build international consensus on how we can improve the present and secure the future.’
