Ahead of UNGA80 – Press Conference with the President of the General Assembly | United Nations

“Better Together” theme will guide the work of the United Nations General Assembly’s 80th session, its President Annalena Baerbock told reporters. “No single nation, regardless of its size, might, or wealth, can confront the challenges that we face all alone,” she said.

Briefing journalists today (17 Sep) Baerbock said the year’s priorities include advancing the UN80 reform agenda, strengthening the organization’s effectiveness, and guiding the selection of the next Secretary-General. She also highlighted the need to build on the Pact for the Future and “regain momentum on the SDGs.”

“Yes, we are at a crossroads – a make-or-break moment,” Baerbock said. “Our forebearers had the humility and grace to put aside their differences and work together in 1945; we need that same principled conviction today.”

She stressed that governments must back up their speeches with tangible commitments. “If we want to make our United Nations stronger, then we would need commitments from all the governments around the world,” Baerbock said, urging parliaments to consider UN funding alongside global priorities such as peace and security, climate action, human rights, and sustainable development.

Baerbock said these issues would guide her bilateral meetings with heads of state during the high-level week.
