The second day of the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly begins, with leaders of Spain, Argentina, Iran and Syria set to speak today.
Spain’s King Don Felipe VI will represent the southern European country, which has been fiercely critical of the war in Gaza.
Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian will speak second, and Argentina’s President Javier Milei, who has adopted a stridently pro-Israel stance and visited Israel earlier this year, will be the 12th speaker.
Syria’s President Ahmad Al-Sharaa is the 14th speaker. He is the first Syrian president to visit the UNGA since 1967.
