  • Statement by President Cyril Ramaphosa to the 78th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, United Nations, New York, 19 September 2023

Seventy-eight years ago, in the aftermath of the Second World War, the nations of the world made a solemn commitment to save future generations from the horror and the suffering of war. Through the United Nations Charter these nations accepted a shared mandate to foster peace and to promote fundamental human rights, social progress and a better standard of life for all.
