12 citibank is funding offering most of your projects globally with are especially warming, disenfranchised communities everywhere and still active as say financial institutions need to do more before it's too late. christine, so we, me, i'll just hear a new york us. we will continue to follow developments that the un general assembly, but for now we go to other news and russian strikes has killed at least 3 people in harkey, the northeastern ukraine. the local governor said russian guided bombs hit a residential multi story apartment block. at least 22 other people have been injured in the attack. japan has protested to the kremlin after a russian patrol plane entered its aerospace 3 times. the violation of it. their space came a day after a joint fleet of chinese and russian warships sailed around the northern japanese

coast as part of their joint military exercises. it's the 1st publicly announced incursion into japanese air space by a russian plane. for 5 years. the question po, the asp based violations extremely regrettable. and today we strongly protested to the russian government through diplomatic channels and urge them to prevent the reoccurrence of such an incidents. for self defense forces will continue to monitor with strong interest the military movements of russia in the space around the country, and will be vigilant. and it's a valence leap on sale. back live now to the un general assembly in new york for the speech of guitars and mirror shake to me been how much of done a a lot of time on the home and the full, the compassionate accidents he's made, the peace, mercy,

and blessings of god. be upon you at the outset that i would like to congratulate his excellence. he missed her for the many young on assuming the presidency of the 79th session of the general assembly, wishing him every success in his tasks. i expressed appreciation to his excellency mister dennis frances, for his efforts during his presidency of the previous session and read, commend the prominent role played by his excellency mister antonio. good. that as secretary general of the united nations is strengthening its stroll and achieving its locked $2.00. and then the president, sharpened for the security, the blatant aggression that'd be falls, the palestinian people and the gaza strip. today is the most barbaric, heinous, and extensive aggression violating human values, international conventions and norms. this is not a war with then dealing with a going to national relations well known and common concept of 4. but rather it is a crime of genocide by means of the most sophisticated weapons against the people,

the seats in a detention camp where there is no escape from the garage of aerial bombing. the cut off to a resolutions, condemnations and reports have been exhausted. nothing is left except the on the 3rd ongoing and pre meditated on, started crime, honest with children, women and the elderly. out of it as their victims. we oppose violence and the targeting of innocent civilians by any party. but we, i mean, i don't know how after a year of the score and was with all that has taken place and has continued that continues to take place. it is no longer tenable to talk about israel's right to defend itself in this context without being complicit in just the on the crime. it is no longer plausible for any officials to claim that they do not know. the facts are well known and reports issued by international organizations about the bombing

of schools and hospitals. webinar izing access to food and medicine, in addition to the published and publicly alter the intentions of israeli leaders. and therefore, the who knew the failure to intervene to stop the the aggression as a major scoundrel to ladies and gentlemen, i know every year i stand on the symposium and i begin by talking about this about this thing and causes the absence of justice to the perils of believing that it can be neglected to them and the illusions of making peace without adjust solution to the palestinian cause. i'm and i have done so every year at a time when the policy new cause has become absent from the speeches of major powers, representatives in our world that are those who are tempted by the possibility of marginalizing this issue to get rid of its burden or seeing advantage without

resolving it, but the past and in cause is resistant to marginalization because it is an issue of indigenous people on their own land. a people who are subjected to a secular colonial occupation definitely to check this occupation has taken the form of an appetite system in the 21st century with the jet. who was the can this be overlooked? then casually, the boston and calls will remain in place as a one except and 2 cases, either the end of the copy one documentation or the disappearance of the boston young people. because it seems to share all those in israel. who entertain wishful thinking to eliminate the palestinian people hold all the time. the ongoing is really aggression for nearly a year. is nothing but a result of the absence of a sincere political will a deliberate,

international failure to resolve the boston an issue with a just solution and insistence of the occupying. is there any authorities to impose a spec? i compete on the palestinians and the world with all types of force. the ongoing, brutal war has fired the crew to grass at international legitimacy and afflicted serious damage on the credibility one of the post world war 2, concepts on which the international community was found. the natal general human said he has an, as is the dire consequences of this approach which are visible before our very eyes are not enough to prove that ignoring adjust solution is conducive to disaster. we discovered so are this belief that some are still trying to find individual measures to yvonne gas after the war with or without and authority. the minimum final thoughts only on the basis of security considerations of public and what is

meant of course of law is the security of the occupation, not the security of those languishing under doctor beck showed. it is the same mindset that lead from one disaster to another. it is the approach that wants to tailor the entire region to fit israel way up. and while looking before circumvention to avoid ending the occupation and work on imposing the rule of one people over another bye for now. is it reasonable that even after this disaster, the major countries with the ability to influence the course of events, all of us are unable to reach the conclusion of the necessity to stop the war and say that towards adjust solution immediately instead of individually working on formulations to evade, at the end of the occupation and the boston young people, exercising their right to self determination is neither a favor nor a gift from anyone for me to do much. so unfortunately just and the security

council has failed to implement ceasefire resolution in the gaza. strip and to refrain from granting the state of palestine full membership staff, those in the united nations. despite the fact that the general assembly adopted the resolution last may supporting power stands requests for you and members of the state of ballast times full un membership. neither establishes its sovereignty nor ends the occupation. but at least it sends the message the difficult to the far right government involved in challenging international legitimacy. that force does not eliminate rights slip diesel and a lot in this is hard talking about such as that to harming the piece processes. this is simply i washington because there is no is really partner for peace during the current government was tenure needed to set up. but i'm

a no peace process is taking place. but rather there's a genocide in disregard. we highly value the position of countries that recognize the state of palestine based on 1967 borders. invest them on the continuation of the mandatory and tragedy of the brother and the boston young people for more than 7 and a half decades. this is a shameful stain on the conscience of the international community. and as institutions, there is no point in talking about security, peace and stability in the middle east region and across the world. it's not backed on by concrete steps leading to an immediate cease fire, and then the end to the is there a the occupation of all arab territories? so i, so the ladies and gentlemen, i think it is no secret that we are facing humanitarian catastrophe and gaza and other boston and territories which are subjected to coordinated attacks by the

occupation army and settlers in an attempt to enforce plans to extend the sacraments. next, the westbank and to the ice jerusalem, some ability, the international community bears the responsibility for the consequences of what is happening to the brother, the boston young people. a 1000 young people are subjected to unfolding genocide. the war that has resolved so far, and the death of more than 41000 martyrs, let alone the missing under the double, including some 2000 children, 11000 women, 100000 wounded men and thousands of disabled and millions of people forcibly this place tre, several times, in addition to the complete, the structure destruction of the infrastructure of hospital schools and buildings, including mosque drugs and churches that jonah a jet. i'm going to sharpen for the whole society as being destroyed in the course

of the genocide against segments of the past. and in people it is the gods in boston and community that has retained its composure, the full and achieved remarkable development levels of mate more than 17 year old stifling siege. as i say to ladies, mister president, i just thought at the top of the state of guitar has opted for undertaking mediation efforts on an endeavor to stop the aggression on garza and secure the release of prisoners and detainees. it is, and mediation admits your score and complex circumstances, during which one party would not hesitate to assassinate counterparts. political leaders with whom it's negotiates, such as the assassination of a smile, hasn't any? yeah. who many people same forgetfulness that he was not only the political leader of the month, but also the 1st elected palestinian prime minister. and we'll talk about to what i meant for us mediation and humanitarian work. are both

a strategic political choice and the regional and international levels and the humanitarian due to before being a political one. we're not being boastful. our mediation efforts in partnership with the arbor public of egypt and the united states of america, culminated in a humanitarian agreement last november. you know what? it resulted in a brief cease fire and the gaza strip off, and that the release of 240 boston and prisoners and 109 of the detainees and gaza should increase the flow of relief shipments. she also provided through mandatory support to the civilian population and the gaza strip, jump and contributed to evacuating the wounded and the 6 target we supported humanitarian initiatives to deliver aids. through all accessible routes, we increased our support to an or well, high behavioral kind of an irreplaceable international agency whose services are

indispensable, and which has been subjected to defamation. for political purposes related to the is riley government's desire to eliminate the refugee crisis without resolving the positing and cause. the state of guitar will spare no effort to provide various forms of humanitarian assistance to the brother, the boston young people until this crisis is resolved. despite the taunting challenges, obstruction attends, and these persians we are subjected to, we will continue our efforts of mediation to resolve the dispute to peaceful means, as we are cognizant that any dispute will never lack of force. interested in his continuation while being skeptical of any mediation regardless of the intentions, we will continue to make every effort with our partners until we reach permanency

fire, secure the release of prisoners and detainees. take the path of adjust solution in accordance with the resolutions of the international legitimacy and the our peace initiative to enable the past and young people to obtain all their legitimate tribes for most of which their independence states with the east jerusalem as its capital on the 1967 borders is not beyond the sort of the establishment of an independent palestinian state within a just i'm sure a man solution is in the interest of the is ready the impulse to me and people's we will not achieve this goal except with a serious partner who is aware of the importance of renouncing discords and ending the occupation and all forms of regression, so that we can reach together the desired piece in the middle east. se device, mister president, with whom i'd like to kind of would you met them apart from committing a major crime by rigging wireless communication devices and exploding them

simultaneously across thousands of people with total disregard for their identity or location? israel is going to waging a war on lab and on, and no one knows to what extent this war could escalate. who am i? so this is what we have repeatedly warned against you. that is the brutal, more on god does not. and this systematic, destructive war must stop. and this is the choice before israel as its leaders know very well. and then they know that it will neither bring security nor peace to northern israel, north the lab, and on. and the key to security rest on adjust, produced on how to stop the aggression on gaza. stop the war on lab, and on what 50 m and a sharpie, and brother and the young man, we look forward to preserving the 2022, which was loc. and proceeding there from towards the comprehensive ceasefire, resolving the crisis,

ensuring yelman's unity and achieving the aspirations of expire. the meet people to negotiations between the money parties based on the outcomes of the national dialogue, the golf initiative, and relevant security council resolutions. as regards to the crisis, rudy and syria pain, i'm off the top of the wall that had moved and since the beginning of the crisis, the position of the state of guitar has been clear. and that is that katara is keen on the interest of brotherly through young people, hoping that the parties and countries involved and the crisis will be convinced of the necessity for dialogue and understanding to end this crisis in accordance with the geneva declaration, one security council resolution 2254 in a way that will achieve the aspirations of the syrian people and preserve serials, unity sovereignty and independence dining regarding disability issue. we call on all the so the nice part is to stop the fight to and we are your firm, our support for all regional and international efforts to end this process in

a way that will ensure the unity of state institutions and the sovereignty and stability of so done that in libya, we support the political trajectory and the implementation of security council resolution. and we urge all parties to the course to dialogue and overcome differences in order to complete the comprehensive national reconciliation preserve the progress and gains achieved on the securities. political and economic contracts, and unified state institutions. volume to be done out of the arab countries cannot achieve security and stability without the existence of firmly established states capable of legislating and enforcing the law. developing and implementing national policies. no state confirmed would be established and we stay both and the presence of on factions that are not under its control. these are self evident and unquestionable matters. i see. so you've got to us, ladies and gentlemen,

look this up as a sub, out of, of a little show. the war between russia and ukraine has caused great too many human suffering and left her for cushions on europe and the world. we de, today's, our call on all parties to implement the provisions of the charter of the united nations and the rules of international law to seek to find a peaceful solution as the only possible. most of you had the solution once a lot on this concepts and based on our firm believes and the principle of them just full sacrament of disputes. we have made a tangible contribution over the past year as custody mediation left to prison, their swap between united states and ben as well on that. some of them are some of the actual and dozens of ukrainian children were reunited with their families. after being separated by the war, well he time and finally and the donor. we have firm that the state of guitar for spare, no effort, and working with this international partners and united nations to confirm the

consolidate the pillars of peace, security, sustainable development, human rights, and the rules of law at all levels and to address global challenges in order to achieve a better future for all. sure. cool, cool. thank you. and may the piece, mercy and blessings of god be upon you. normally they got somebody out of the school. i mean, they are resilient k m a of the state of cut to the assembly. they've been listening to guitars in their shake them and then how much of dani is speaking on day one of the united nations general assembly at un headquarters in new york. now he devoted much of his speech to israel's war on gaza. and the key words already give you a pretty good sense of what he was saying, genocide, apartheid disappearance of the policy, and people and the could have grosse,

this war, being the kuta grass on international legitimacy. let's listen now to the south african president, serial, around a post center your excellence the chair of the assembly. we take this opportunity to offend. so united nations, the assembly, to give us a chance to speak 30 years ago, saw that the car was born, is a new nation qual, united, and free from a politics. we adopted a new constitution as the birth certificate or follow a new nation. our 1st democratic elections brought the tyranny of par tate to an end. a system that this general assembly

declared to be a crime against humanity in adopting resolution to 202 a in 1966 a slave to uh, endorsed by the security council. 1985, the united nations was a beacon of hope in our quest for justice. the great wave of solidarity of the pulse of the word led by the united nations turn to the tides tide or gains pottage. today democracy flourishes in south africa. we have a progressive constitution and then changed human rights culture and strong institutions. we have laws to advance equality and

programs to protect society's. most marginalized environmental. we continue to transform our white quote on me so that it is in a more competitive position to create jobs, to talk to more investment and that it should benefit all. so the fruit guys, a party to go about to tease on human rights, gender equality, children's rights, refugee protection, and environmental protection. a few days ago, south africa also endorsed the package that charts the costs for a better future for global governance. and to was the attainment of the sustainable

development goals a signature to the purchase agreement where our contribution, our fair share to was the global effort, and have a just energy transition plan to guide our comp on journey and climate. the resilient development through the african union. we are working to advance agenda trendy. 63 way involved in mediation and conflict resolution across a continent and actively contribute to peacekeeping missions. a political culture has evolved and it continues to mitchell. we have just held our 7 free and for general elections since our democracy paving their way for the formation of the government of national unity.

10 political parties, of course, are less around a come on agenda for, you cannot make growth, job creation, probity eradication, and sustainable development. so the fruit guys in a new era, an era of great promise, and what some have called the 2nd a miracle. so the africans of all races have related behind the government of national unity were making headway in resolving some of our most pressing challenges. our economy has started to improve and investor confidence is on the rise. our country is prospect look bright. and we look to the future with great hope.

the south african story bears witness to the enduring role of the united nations and global mattress. and supporting our struggle. the united nations of firmed the principles of u. n. a. but you have to talk to the fundamental human rights, the dignity and west of every person. and the court rights of nations. large and small. the firm to the aspiration contained in the universal declaration of rights that we should strive for the word free of barbarous acts. that outrage the conscience of human kind. genocide was declared to be a stain on the conscience of the world. and the world community took

a stand against genocide, apartheid was declared a crime against humanity and a stain on the conscience of the world. the united nations took a stand against a party. these was seen as crimes against humanity then. and they continued to be crimes against humanity. now it has been 11 months since how mos attack that killed 1200 people as and where hostages were taken. i saw that africa, we have condemned to this attack. endless phones. these are all embarked on an act of collective punishment. and it's

a thoughts on the people of gaza. the torment of the people of gods that continues unabated. more than 41000 palestinians have been cute homes, hospitals, churches, mosques, and schools lie destroyed for mine and the seas stalk this streets of gauze. this cannot but shock, our collective humanity, the violence, the palestinian people are being subjected to is a grim continuation of more than half a century of our party that has been perpetrated against palestinian by is right. we saw the africans know what a party looks like. we lived through a pot,

tate, we suffered and died under a pa tate. we will not remain silent and watch as a pa tate is perpetrated. a gaze of us through the united nations and the instruments. it will, we must end the suffering that palestinians are being subjected to. we are called upon to oppose the principles of the you and taught and to oppose consistently. and in their entirety, the fundamental attendance offer international law. international law cannot be applied select.
