Prime Minister Ishiba of Japan Set to Participate in U.N. General Assembly Meeting
Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba is set to visit New York from September 19 to 21 for the U.N. General Assembly session. The announcement was made by Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi on September 15.
During his visit, Ishiba is scheduled to deliver a speech during the general debate. The speech is expected to address the need for an international order based on multilateralism and the rule of law, in response to intensifying divisions and conflicts around the world.
Ishiba's speech may also respond to the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, and discuss Japan's plans in this regard. The Prime Minister is also expected to emphasize Japan's efforts to promote international peace.
In addition to the speech, Ishiba plans to hold bilateral talks with other world leaders during his visit. One of these leaders is former Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.
The U.N. Security Council has come under criticism for failing to address crises such as Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Ishiba is expected to stress the importance of overhauling the U.N. Security Council during his talks with world leaders.
The discussions may also include Ishiba's plans regarding the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, and his vision for a more peaceful and cooperative international order. The visit and speech are still scheduled for September 19 to 21.
