20 de September de 2022

A high-level delegation of the European Union will attend the 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly next week in New York.

Assembly

This year’s session is marked by Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine and its global consequences, which are deepening existing geopolitical fractures and crises, such as those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the worsening global climate emergency.

Major challenges of our time cannot be addressed by countries acting alone. They must be tackled together.
