PM to virtually join 75th UNGA
Primary Minister Sheikh Hasina, just like other global leaders, might join the 75th UN General Assembly (UNGA) virtually as a result of COVID-19 pandemic, studies UNB.
The Prime Minister will probably deliver her pre-recorded speech on September 26 aside from her virtual presence in different high-level events.
Bangladesh continues its work to keep carefully the Rohingya issue on the table in the UN, an official told UNB.
Meanwhile, Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen will short media nearly on Monday on various areas of the UNGA and Bangladesh's virtual occurrence, he said.
The 75th UNGA session began on September 15 which year, due to the ongoing global pandemic, it'll be unlike any other in the organization’s three quarters of a hundred years of existence.
This month, you will have no bumping into presidents or the occasional global celebrity in hectic and sometimes crushed corridors at the UN Headquarters in NY.
There will be not any marvelling at seemingly endless presidential motorcades over First Avenue and no “standing-room only” occasions in the gilded General Assembly Hall, simply because the organization’s busiest time of the year is reimagined in enough time of COVID-19.
The centrepiece of any new Standard Assembly session, is without a doubt the General Debate, which starts on September 22, weekly following the official opening.
This is a globally unique occasion at which presidents and heads of express (or perhaps sometimes their deputies or perhaps foreign ministers) try the dais, and address a global audience on a concern of their choosing.
This year, as a result of the pandemic, the UN said, world leaders will be staying away and have been invited to submit pre-recorded videos of their speeches which is broadcast “as live”.
Speeches are anticipated to be introduced by a fresh York-based representative of every state, who'll be physically present.
