General Debate statements

70 statements to the General Debate since 1956, 228,900 words in all. The longest was 1960, at 7,125 words, delivered by Prince Moulay HASSAN.

Of the 31 statements since 1994 whose speaker’s post the record gives: Minister for Foreign Affairs ×10, Prime Minister ×8, Head of Government ×5, Head of State ×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.
