General Debate statements
50 statements to the General Debate since 1975, 153,082 words in all. The longest was 1979, at 7,436 words, delivered by Chissano.
Of the 30 statements since 1994 whose speaker’s post the record gives: President ×13, Minister for Foreign Affairs ×10, Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs ×1, Prime Minister ×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.
