FILE - NEW YORK CITY
1. Wide shot, exterior UN Headquarters
17 JANUARY 2023, NEW YORK CITY
2. Wide shot, Trusteeship Council
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Csaba Kőrösi, President, United Nations General Assembly:
“2022 dealt fresh blows to global cooperation: War and suffering. Searing inflation. Food and energy shocks that arrested development and added new layers to record-high debt burdens. Meanwhile, extreme weather events made water more scarce, unpredictable and polluted for millions around the world, sparking humanitarian emergencies and stoking geopolitical tensions.”
4. Med shot, delegate
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Csaba Kőrösi, President, United Nations General Assembly:
“It is up to us – the General Assembly – to develop transformative solutions and to motivate their implementations in solidarity. With human rights at their core, our efforts must make our world safer, more just and more sustainable.”
6. Med shot, delegate
7. SOUNDBITE (English) Csaba Kőrösi, President, United Nations General Assembly:
“It is on us to design the future of the UN – to agree on solutions that will reinvigorate multilateralism, restore trust and renew the agenda of peace. There are many opportunities to make the UN more responsive. For the first time in history, the General Assembly has a standing mandate to hold a debate when a veto is cast in the Security Council. General Assembly action to address conflict situations is not new – it is enshrined in Article 11 of the Charter. Yet, the veto initiative has opened the door for greater collaboration and accountability across UN bodies to deliver peace and solutions to the people.”

STORYLINE:
General Assembly President Csaba Kőrösi today (17 Jan) laid out his priorities for the remainder of the 77th session of the General Assembly, and said it is up to the General Assembly to develop transformative solutions and to implement them in solidarity.
The President said, “2022 dealt fresh blows to global cooperation: War and suffering. Searing inflation. Food and energy shocks that arrested development and added new layers to record-high debt burdens.

He said it was up to the General Assembly “to develop transformative solutions and to motivate their implementations in solidarity” and added that “with human rights at their core, our efforts must make our world safer, more just and more sustainable.”
Kőrösi addressed Security Council reform and GA revitalization.

It was announced today that this April, there will be a plenary debate on the new agenda item on the use of the veto. A discussion about how to use this new mandate to make actual change.
In laying out the plan for the coming months, the PGA highlighted the SDG Summit in September, which will be the midpoint for the 2030 Agenda.
Other events include the UN Water Conference in March and announced today three scientific briefings by scientists to Member States on 7 February. They will be on the topics of Economics of Water; the connections between Climate, Conflict and Cooperation; and the role of Early Warning for Pandemic Preparedness.
