Today’s UNGA session will feature a speech from Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif that will focus on the country’s devastating floods caused by climate change.
Details indicate that the Prime Minister would highlight the enormous harm caused by the devastating floods triggered by climate change and make a request for help from other countries to deal with the disaster.
In order to address the existential threat posed by climate change, PM Shehbaz Sharif will present specific recommendations at the UNGA session.
Additionally, he will highlight Pakistan’s perspective and position on prominent, regional, and global topics, such as Jammu and Kashmir, one of the long-running UN-resolved conflicts.
It is important to note that 33 million Pakistanis have been affected by the heavy rains and accompanying floods, which have wreaked billions of dollars worth of destruction and killed over 1,500 people, raising concerns about Pakistan’s ability to pay its obligations.
