General Debate statements

20 statements to the General Debate since 2006, 35,798 words in all. The longest was 2024, at 2,372 words, delivered by Filip Ivanovic.

Of the 20 statements since 1994 whose speaker’s post the record gives: President ×9, Prime Minister ×9, Minister for Foreign Affairs ×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.
