The Acting President
I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Mr. Krzysztof Szczerski, Permanent Representative of Poland to the United Nations, and Mr. Bakhtiyor Ibragimov, Permanent Representative of Uzbekistan to the United Nations, who ably and patiently conducted the discussions and complex negotiations in the informal consultations on resolution 77/274. I am sure the members of the Assembly join me in…
The Acting President
The Assembly will now take a decision on draft amendment A/77/L.56. A recorded vote has been requested.
The Acting President
Since draft amendment A/77/L.55 was adopted, we shall proceed to take action on draft resolution A/77/L.54 as amended.

Ms. Berlin (Sweden)
I understand that the draft amendment proposed by the European Union was not adopted, but we would like to call for a vote on the current text of eleventh preambular paragraph of draft resolution A/77/L.54.
The Acting President
A separate recorded vote has been requested on the eleventh preambular paragraph of draft resolution A/77/L.54, as amended. Do I hear any objection? I call on the representative of Pakistan.
Ms. Saleem (Pakistan)
We would like to request that the representative of Sweden and you, Mr. President, clarify what is meant by a vote on the eleventh preambular paragraph. Clarification would be helpful for all delegations so that they know how they wish to proceed in the voting.
The Acting President
I now give the floor to the Secretariat to clarify the process.
Mr. Nakano
Through you, Mr. President, I should like to advise the delegation of Pakistan that, in the recorded vote conducted on the eleventh preambular paragraph, a vote in favour means that a delegation is in favour of retaining  — keeping  — the eleventh preambular paragraph of draft resolution A/77/L.54. A vote against the eleventh preambular paragraph means that a delegation is against retaining that …
The Acting President
I hope this satisfies the query of the delegation of Pakistan. I call on the representative of Brazil.
Mr. Costa Filho (Brazil)
I would request clarification as to exactly how the voting is going to proceed. Are we going to vote first on A/77/L.54 as a whole and subsequently on its eleventh preambular paragraph? Following the guidance of the Secretariat, I understand that a vote in favour means retaining the eleventh preambular paragraph and a vote against means removing it from the text, which, as a side note, seems to …
The Acting President
I now give the floor to the Secretariat for further clarification.
Mr. Nakano
Through you, Mr. President, I would like to advise the delegation of Brazil that when a paragraph vote is requested, the first vote is on that paragraph, and then, after the vote on the paragraph is conducted, the Assembly will proceed to take action on the draft resolution as a whole.
The Acting President
I hope that further clarified the process for the representative of Brazil. Is there any objection to this procedure? There being none, I shall therefore put the paragraph to the vote first. I now put to the vote the eleventh preambular paragraph of draft resolution A/77/L.54, as amended.
The Acting President
May I take it that the Assembly decides to adopt draft resolution, A/77/L.54, as amended?

Ms. Mendoza Elguea (Mexico)
Mexico joins the consensus on resolutions 77/274 and 77/275 and appreciates the efforts made by the Permanent Representatives of Israel, Morocco, Poland and Uzbekistan as co-facilitators during the two processes. However, we cannot overlook the most important limitation that my country identifies in both resolutions: the mention that the political declarations of the high-level meetings must be a…
