Statement of the President of the Republic of Cyprus, H.E. Mr. Nikos Christodoulides at the 79th Session of the UN General Assembly
UN Headquarters
25 September 2024
Mr. President,
Your Excellencies,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
At the outset, I wish to congratulate His Excellency Ambassador Philemon Yang for his election as President of the 79th Session of the General Assembly. Rest assured, Mr. President, of Cyprus’ steadfast support for your mission.
Your Excellencies,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I humbly stood at this podium for the first time last year. My main premise then was that the UN Charter is not a reality. It is a promise. A sacred pledge that we inherited from our predecessors.
From those who had the remarkable courage, the clarity of vision, to put pen on paper, vision to action, and to solemnly declare –
Never Again.
