UN General Assembly President Dennis Francis praises India’s leadership at the UN, highlighting its commitment to multilateralism and its potential to contribute significantly to global affairs. He emphasizes India’s role in South-South cooperation and its expertise in digitalization, while also discussing the importance of Security Council reform and the upcoming Summit of the Future.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will not address the annual debate at the United Nations General Assembly session this month, opting instead to focus on a major community event and the UN’s ‘Summit of the Future’. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar will represent India at the General Debate, while Modi will attend a gathering of the Indian diaspora and participate in the ‘Summit of the Future’, which aims to forge a new global consensus on safeguarding the future.
