General Assembly: Meetings Coverage


GA/AB/4478

Delegates at the Fifth Committee (Administrative and Budgetary) today supported the Secretary-General’s proposal to provide the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia with nearly $2 million in 2025 to keep the Chambers running smoothly and bolster the international community’s fight against impunity.

GA/PAL/1475

This year’s commemoration of the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People is especially painful, as the fundamental goals of their dignity, rights, justice and self-determination are as distant as they have ever been, the Secretary-General said today in a statement read out at a special meeting in observance of the Day.

GA/L/3738

Concluding its seventy-ninth session today, the Sixth Committee (Legal) approved, without a vote, 16 draft texts — one of which saw the Committee, in a historic process of informal discussions, able to maintain its tradition of consensus as it launched the process to negotiate an international convention to govern the prevention and punishment of crimes against humanity.
