Statement by the President of Ukraine during the General Debate of the 72nd session of the United Nations General Assembly

Distinguished Mr. President,

Excellencies,

Ladies and gentlemen,

On behalf of Ukraine, I sincerely congratulate the honorable Mr. Miroslav Lajčák on his election as President of the 72nd session of the General Assembly.

Mr. President, Ukraine fully supports all six priorities defined by you for the upcoming session and is ready to assist you in your noble efforts.

A lot must be done to translate our common vision of a peaceful, prosperous and equal world into reality.

The spiral of violence continues to affect more and more countries and regions.
