Delegate of Israel as Vice-President of the United Nations General Assembly

In what Israel considered a victory for it in the context of its international relations, Israel's delegate to the United Nations, Gilad Erdan, was elected yesterday, Tuesday, as Vice-President of the 77th session of the UN General Assembly, which begins on September 18.

This came during the meeting of the members of the Assembly (193 countries) currently being held at the permanent headquarters of the International Organization in New York.

Erdan will serve in the position for one year, while the General Assembly elected by acclamation the Director of the Office of the Hungarian President for Environmental Sustainability, Ambassador تشاapa Korوشيci, as Chair.

Erdan will be entrusted, under his new position at the United Nations, to chair the sessions of the General Assembly in its 77th session, and will participate in setting the agenda for its deliberations.

Commenting on his election, Erdan said, "This is an important victory that will give us another platform to present the truth about Israel and its contribution to the world, despite the continuous attempts of the Palestinians and hostile states at the United Nations to act against us."

The elections of the United Nations are held in accordance with the principle of geographical rotation contained in United Nations Resolution No. "138/33" issued on December 19, 1987. Based on this principle, the president of the 77th session is elected from the countries of Eastern Europe.

And annually, the new session begins in September, when the presidents, leaders and kings of the member states meet in face-to-face meetings in New York.

The United Nations General Assembly, established in 1945, is at the fore in the organization as a forum for multilateral discussions on regional and international issues covered by the United Nations Charter.
