HIS MAJESTY OFF TO UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY
MANZINI - His Majesty King Mswati III yesterday morning jetted out of the country to attend the 77th United Nations General Assembly.
The summit is in New York, Unites States of America (USA). His Majesty King Mswati III left the country through King Mswati III International Airport where well-wishers bid him farewell. The King left the country with Inkhosikati LaNgangaza. Among the well-wishers were members of the royal family, Cabinet ministers, Parliament’s presiding officers and senior government officials. It is worth noting that the general assembly comes after two years of virtual and hybrid summits.
The opening of the 77th session comes as the planet is beset with crises on nearly every front. Russia’s war in Ukraine, inflation and economic instability, terrorism and ideological extremism, environmental degradation and devastating floods, droughts and fires and the ongoing pandemic are just a few of the rampant perils. The high-level meeting opens today with a summit on education, whose thorough disruption during the Coronavirus pandemic is set to reverberate for decades to come. Speeches from the scores of attending leaders, according to the summit’s programme, shall begin tomorrow and run through Monday, September 26, 2022.
