Prime Minister Narendra Modi Scheduled for Important UN General Assembly Meeting in the U.S. in September
The 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) turned 80 this year, with the theme for this year being "Better Together: 80 Years and More for Peace, Development, and Human Rights." On September 26, 2022, Prime Minister Narendra Modi delivered his seventh address at the high-level session of the UNGA, marking a significant milestone in his tenure.
The morning session, which started at 9 a.m. (New York time), saw the participation of several world leaders. Among them were Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel; Li Keqiang, Premier of China; the Prime Ministers of Pakistan and Bangladesh; and, of course, Prime Minister Modi himself.
The schedule for the UNGA 2022 General Debate spanned several days, with Brazil traditionally opening the proceedings, followed by the United States. PM Modi's address was positioned in the morning session on September 26.
The exact speaking order and the complete list of speakers for that specific day are not fully available, but these key world leaders shared the podium on that morning of September 26, 2022. Unfortunately, the attendance of some notable leaders, such as Presidents Vladimir Putin of Russia and Xi Jinping of China, was not confirmed.
Notable absences included US President Donald Trump, who was not scheduled to attend, and Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping, who did not confirm their attendance.
In addition to the high-level session, a high-level meeting was held on September 22 to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the UN. The first address in the regular high-level sessions was delivered by Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
PM Modi's address at the UNGA 2022 was a significant moment in the history of India's diplomatic relations, as he shared his vision for peace, development, and human rights with the global community. The session ran from September 23 to 29, 2022, providing a platform for world leaders to discuss and address the most pressing issues facing the world today.
