General Debate statements
34 statements to the General Debate since 1991, 76,773 words in all. The longest was 1999, at 4,120 words, delivered by Leo A. Falcam.
Of the 31 statements since 1994 whose speaker’s post the record gives: President ×18, President and Head of Government ×4, Minister for Foreign Affairs ×4, Vice-President ×2. 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.
