As president of the 78th session of the UN General Assembly, Dennis Francis has taken on an important role at a time when the global community is facing important challenges. It has been a pillar of international stability for many years. However, there is growing worry that given the unstable state of the globe, which is marked by conflicts, climate change, poverty, hunger, inequality, mistrust, and division, its applicability may be decreasing. Francis vowed to rally the UN's top policy-making body to "deliver for people and for the planet" as he took his responsibilities and the symbolic gavel.
Recent power struggles and political-economic tensions have raised questions about the sustainability of the multilateral approach. Dennis Francis provided a balanced viewpoint in an interview with Arab News, building on his vast experience working with multilateral organizations. The ability of the international structure to produce concrete results can be seen by instances of success within it, such as the inclusion of loss and damage in the COP27 agreement. This important choice represents a commitment to giving money to underdeveloped countries dealing with the negative effects of climate change.
The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations, particularly the UAE and Saudi Arabia, were also prepared to share their invaluable success-related lessons with the rest of the globe, according to him. These countries have a unique track record of setting developmental milestones, and their lessons can be learned from them.
