UN General Assembly
2024

We are blessed beyond measure. Some of you had a taste of it at the Reception when we introduced our President of the last session- and you enjoyed some of our delicacies including our delicious doubles and bake and shark, and you were delighted by performances on our national musical instrument the Steelpan and by the magical rhythms of our tassa drums. We have proven that we can be great leaders, including leaders of this very Assembly and we will continue to give more value to this world than we extract from it. We are strong, proud, staunch advocates of the UN system and multilateralism. In the end unity and togetherness is the key… for these United Nations as well as for my own society. Om Shanti Shanti Shanti, As-salamu Alaykum, Shalom Aleichem, and May God bless you and your families. Mr. President, I thank you.
