🇸🇰 Slovakia - President Addresses United Nations General Debate, 78th Session |

Zuzana Čaputová, President of the Slovak Republic, addresses the general debate of the 78th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (New York, 19 - 26 September 2023).
--------
The President of the Slovak Republic, Zuzana Caputova told delegates at the annual General Assembly Debate that the time for talking, discussions and promises “is over,” adding “this General Assembly must start with the ultimate purpose, for which the UN was founded: restoration of peace.”
Speaking today (20 Sep), Caputova noted that last year, “we recorded more conflict-related deaths in the world than in any year since 1994. Russia’s illegal, full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Slovakia’s direct neighbour, has greatly contributed to this rise.”
For more than 570 days, she said, “Russia’s forces have been killing innocent Ukrainian civilians, kidnapping children and destroying towns and cities. They bomb infrastructure and ports that export Ukraine’s grain to those who need it in Bangladesh or Egypt.”
She added, “Yes, we need a new Agenda for Peace, as the Secretary-General rightly said but first and foremost, we need action for peace from Russia as a permanent member of the UN Security Council.”
On climate change Caputova said, “We need to wake up. We are not battling an external threat. This is not a meteor heading for Earth. This is an existential crisis that we created - and we alone must solve.”
Regarding new technologies, the Slovakian president said, “any technology must be used with one goal in mind: that of the dignity and rights of every individual.”
In that sense, she added, “If not addressed, social media platforms, artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies can act like steroids for the current crises. That is why we cannot postpone their democratic regulation.”
----------
The UN General Assembly (UNGA) is the main policy-making organ of the Organization. Comprising all Member States, it provides a unique forum for multilateral discussion of the full spectrum of international issues covered by the Charter of the United Nations. Each of the 193 Member States of the United Nations has an equal vote.
The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter.
The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world.
But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity.
