HIV is a relentless global health challenge that continues to impact millions of lives. Today I am honoured to address the General Assembly on Uganda’s ongoing efforts and achievements in this fight.
I would like to thank and acknowledge the insights and recommendations in the latest report on this…
I take the floor in the capacity of Chair of the Group of 77 (G-77) and China.
The G-77 and China obviously welcomes the adoption of the resolution on global health and foreign policy (resolution 78/280), which was extensively negotiated. It is our firm belief that the process was comprehensive and…
First and foremost, I thank the President for having convened this debate. I have the honour to deliver this statement on behalf of the Republic of Uganda, but, first, let me align my delegation with the statement delivered by the representative of Pakistan on behalf of the Organization of Islamic C…
While congratulating all the members that have been elected, I wish to seek some clarification, because, as I understand it, we have had one round of voting in the General Assembly, and there were quite a number of rounds in the Security Council.

I have the honour to deliver this statement on behalf of the African States parties to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC).

So, maybe we need somebody who is…

Mr. President, you seemed to have mentioned that the Second Committee adopted the resolution without a vote, but the English version of your notes says that “the Second Committee adopted it”. We do not know whether that was without a vote or with …
I join other speakers before me in expressing my delegation’s condolences to the Governments of Barbados and Argentina during this time of great loss to their nations.
Uganda is humbled by the words of gratitude expressed by various delegations concerning our hosting of the first Review Conference …
My delegation wishes to register its support for the decision of the President, which is clearly in line with General Assembly resolution 2758 (XXVI) of 1971 on the question of China’s representation in the United Nations.
