General Debate statements

66 statements to the General Debate since 1956, 212,035 words in all. The longest was 1978, at 7,582 words, delivered by Ieng Sary.

Of the 30 statements since 1994 whose speaker’s post the record gives: Deputy Prime Minister ×10, Minister for Foreign Affairs ×8, Prime Minister ×7, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation ×1. Earlier years are excluded because UN records do not consistently identify a speaker’s post before 1994, and counting those years as though they did would make any state look as though it sent nobody senior.
