The 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) will open on September 9, at the UN Headquarters in New York City, under the theme “Better Together: 80 Years and More for Peace, Development and Human Rights.” The high-level debate will take place from September 22 to 30. France, Canada, Australia, and Malta have all announced their intention to recognize the state of Palestine during the General Assembly. The United Kingdom has also stated it will recognize a Palestinian state unless Israel abides by a ceasefire and commits to a two-state solution.
Several protests are being organized in response, in addition to localized disruptions. Please fill out the form to request a copy of the complete briefing.
