On Thursday, September 21st, I had the distinguished honor of presiding over the 78th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, under the theme “Restoring Trust and Reviving Hope”. This event was marked by a great speech from President Macky Sall, which once again showcased the prowess of Senegal’s diplomacy.The theme of this year’s General Assembly session is one that resonates deeply with the current global climate. With increasing political tensions, economic instability, and humanitarian crises, the need for trust and hope is more crucial than ever before. As the world’s top leaders gathered at the UN headquarters in New York, it was clear that this session would be a crucial one in addressing these pressing challenges.In his speech, President Sall emphasized the importance of multilateralism and cooperation in restoring trust and reviving hope. He highlighted the urgency of addressing issues such as climate change, poverty, and terrorism, which require a united effort from all nations. The President also called for the strengthening of the United Nations as an institution, and for greater support for developing countries in achieving sustainable development.Senegal’s leadership in this session is a testament to its commitment to global peace and development. Over the years, Senegal has played a pivotal role in promoting regional and international cooperation, and its efforts in conflict prevention and resolution have been widely recognized.As the session came to a close, it was clear that while there are still many challenges ahead, there is still hope for a better future. The United Nations remains a vital platform for countries to come together to find solutions to global issues, and the 78th Session has reaffirmed its role in this regard.In conclusion, the 78th Session of the United Nations General Assembly was a resounding success, thanks in large part to the leadership and diplomatic prowess of President Macky Sall and the delegation from Senegal. As we look towards the future, let us all work towards restoring trust and reviving hope for a more peaceful and prosperous world
