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.
