UNGA 76: New York City's Most "Fashionable" Event is Back:

It is that time of year again: The UN General Assembly's meeting
with world leaders returns in a hybrid format after being virtual
last year. Which heads of state and government are coming? What
should you watch for? We've got your guide to the 76th UNGA
session. We speak with Nigerian Ambassador Tijjani Muhammad-Bande,
who was the 74th president of the General Assembly, about what to
expect. We also spoke with Estonia’s Foreign Minister Eva-Maria
Liimets. Disclaimer: Following the publication of this podcast, the
President of the General Assembly has specified that the United
Nations honor system for vaccination and Covid-19 testing remains
in place for UNGA, and that UN authorities won't verify vaccination
status upon entering the United Nations Headquarters. Links:
