General Debate statements

33 statements to the General Debate since 1993, 58,859 words in all. The longest was 1999, at 3,611 words, delivered by Jan Kavan.

Of the 31 statements since 1994 whose speaker’s post the record gives: President ×11, Minister for Foreign Affairs ×9, Deputy Prime Minister ×4, Prime Minister ×3. 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.
