Description
Taking up Security Council’s Annual Report, General Assembly Speakers Call for More Substantive Content, Point to Impact of Veto on Global Peace
Delegations Adopt Fifth Committee Resolutions on Peacekeeping Missions’ Budgets
Prior to adopting 18 Fifth Committee (Administrative and Budgetary) draft texts, the General Assembly today took up the 2022 Security Council report, with some delegations appealing for a more substantive and analytical account of the 15-nation organ’s work, while others spotlighted the Council’s limitations due to the veto, which was preventing a timely response to threats to international peace and security.

On the recommendation of the Fifth Committee, the General Assembly adopted 18 draft resolutions, including 16 texts addressing the budgets for peacekeeping missions for the period from 1 July 2023 to 31 June 2024. Included in these adoptions was an amount in the budget not exceeding $590 million supporting the Security Council’s unanimous decision to terminate the mandate of the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) by the end of the year. (For background information, please see Press Releases GA/AB/4423 and SC/15341.)

The General Assembly also considered the 2022 Security Council report in its annual debate on the matter.
