canadians standing together together in your determination to end this pandemic, canadian prime minister justin pseudo with a snap general election. but he's facing criticism for holding the votes and doing the pandemic. the the leaders arriving at un headquarters in new york for the $76.00 general assembly covered 19 climate change and conflict will be top of the agenda. the u. s. says it's came to avoid the assembly becoming a corona virus, super spread to revenge. they've asked those attending to be vaccinated, but the 1st world leader to speak brazilian president data both sonata says he hasn't had the job. diplomatic editor james base has more on what to expect. joe biden arriving in new york for his 1st united nations general assembly. as the us president becomes at a time when he faces an array of foreign policy challenges and tension with a key ally. his 1st meeting was with the un secretary general antonio good terrace to discuss climate cobra, 19 and top of the agenda, the situation in afghanistan. the 2nd general is arguing that the international community has no choice but to engage with the taliban. and the un high commissioner for refugees who's just back from cobble is warning. there's a real risk of a catastrophic economic breakdown. the implosion would mean the seizing of the functioning of the vital functions of state like the health system. for example, the public administration who will pay the salaries that you know until now were paid to a combination of bilateral, multilateral funds and national funds. this whole construct has collapsed now. so if that happens, that kind of implosion would push for sure many to leave the country. kobe 19 will also be a key issue this week. protest is here, and there the un, or angry about the biden administration's plans for cobra. the booster shots, when many around the world are unprotected, they call it the vaccine, the part 8. but the president will on wednesday, hold a virtual summit in an effort to increase the vaccine supply to countries across the globe. while james base is joining us, live not from the united nations. james, it sounds as though the us president is going to have a significant amount of bridge building to do. but what else is he going to be doing in terms of foreign relations? and the subjects you were talking about there. well, it's going to be a very important day for president joe biden. he is literally on the world stage, the 76 session of the un general assembly opened in the last minute. and the one of the key speakers coming up is president joe biden. this is always a very important moment for us president, addressing the leaders of the world, 193 countries represented in the general assembly hall. but clearly number one, this is his 1st time here in new york as president, he's been to the un many, many times. and so he will be setting out his stall in terms of foreign policy. now we've looked at several months ago. i think the message would be pretty simple, it would have been america's back. multilateralism is back, this is a change from the trump era. busy this is an america the allies contrast. that message is a much harder cell. now the pipes, it was just a few weeks ago, number one because of afghanistan, some of the key allies of the united states. some of the allies of the u. s. were concerned about what happened in afghanistan, and we'll have to see how well they make a person by the speech. the us, the, you, the un secretary general is speaking right now. let's listen a surgery mistress. the museum formation is polarizing people and paralyzing societies. human rights are under fire and science isn't that assault. and they could make lifelines for the most vulnerable are coming to lead to and to late if they come at all solely that it is missing inaction just when we need it most. but absent image tells the tale of all times the picture we have seen from some parts of the world of coffee, 19 vaccines in the garbage expire, and then uses on the one hand, we see the vaccine is developed in record time a victory of science and human ingenuity. on the other hand, we see that triumph and done by the tragedy of the lack of political will. selfishness and mistrust. a surplus in some countries empty shelves in others. a majority of the wealthy world vaccine natives over 90 percent of africans still waiting for the 1st those. these is a moral indictment of the state of our world. it is an obscenity. we pass the science test, but we are getting an f in ethics, excellencies the clients, alarm bells that also ringing at fever beach. the recent report of the intergovernmental panel on climate change was a code red 40 many t. we see the warning signs in every continent and region, scorching temperatures, shocking biodiversity loss, polluted air water, and that's all spaces and climate related disasters at every turn. as before, recently, not even these see see the financial capital of the world is immune. climate scientists allows it is not too late to keep alive the 1.5. the goal of the bad is climate agreement. but the window is rapidly closings. we need the 45 percent cut in emissions by 2030. yes, a recent un report made clear that with present national climate commitments, emissions will go up by 16 percent by 2030. that would condemn us to house cape of temperature rises of at least $2.00 degrees above pre industrial levels. a catastrophe. meanwhile, the cd just reported the gap of at least $20000000000.00 us dollars in essential and promise climate finance to developing countries. we are weeks away from the un climate conference in glasgow. the seemingly light ears away from reaching our targets. we must get serious and the mass that foss excellency's coffee than the climate cries, have exposed profound for julie, these the societies and the planets. yet instead of the 1000000 in the face of these epic challenges, we see whole breeze. instead of the path of solidarity. we are on a dev and to destruction. at the same time, another disease you spread being, you know, a role to date, a melody of mistrust. when people see promises of progress denied by the realities of their hearts daily lives. when they see the fundamental rights and freedoms curtains, when they see petty as well as graham's corruption on them. when they see billionaires joy arriving to space, while millions go hungry or nurse, when parents see a future for their children, that looks even bleak. then the struggles of today, and we and young people see no future at all. the people we serve and re present may lose face not only in their government and these the to sions, but the, the values that the estimated the work of the united nations for over 75 years, these human rights dignity for all equality justice solely that it the like never before, got values or in the cross hairs, but because out in thrush is leaving to break down in values. promises after all are worthless if people do not see results in their daily lives. failure to the live or create space for some of the darkest impulses of humanity. it provides oxygen for easy fixes, fill those solutions, and conspiracy theories. if these guidelines to stop asia grievances, cultural supremacy, ideological domino's violent bizarre to meet the targeting of the most vulnerable, including refugees and migrants, excellencies, we face a moment of truth now is the time to the leave. us now is the time to the star test, and now is the time to inspire hope. and i do hope the problems we have created are problems we can solve. humanity has shown that we are capable of good things and we are together. and that is the result that of all united nations. but let's be frank. today's multilateral system is to limit to the needs instruments and capacities in relation to what is needed for effective governance of managing global public goods. it is to fixed on the short term. we need to strengthen global governance. we need to focus on the future. we need to renew the social contract and we need to ensure united motion fit for new eda. that is why i presented my report on our common agenda in the way i did. it provides a 360 degrees and now is the set of all worlds with 90 specific recommendations that they called the challenges of today and strengthened multilateralism for tomorrow. on common agenda builds on the when jonathan's universal declaration of human rights, the 20 set the agenda for sustainable development and the berries climate agreement . it is in line with demand. if i was given by the 75 declaration to seek a best way to about the worlds, but to reach that land of all promises, we must bridge great divides, excellencies. i see 6 great divide 6 grams canyons that we must bridge. now. first, we must bridge the peace divide for far too many around the world, peace and stability remain a distant dream. in i've got his than where we must boast, military assistance and defense. human rights especially of women, goes in the op. yeah. where do you call on part of history? mediately sees all still it. these ensure the military and excess and create the conditions for the start of job and lead political dialogue. in math, where to reaffirm and waving support to the people in the pursuit of democracy, peace, human rights, and the rule of law. in the style where we are committed to mobilizing international assistance for regional security, the development of governance in places such as yet men, libya and syria was where we must overcome stalemate and push for peace. in israel and palestine where we are leaders to resume a meaningful dialogue, recognizing the 2 state solution as the only best way to adjust the comprehensive piece in haiti. and so many other places left behind where he's standing, sorry that it the through every step of the crisis. excellencies, we are seeing an explosion in seizures of power by force military, coups, beck. and the lack of unity among the international community does not help geopolitical divisions and the mining international cooperation. and leave me think the capacity of the security council to take the necessary decisions, a sense of impunity is taking holes. and at the same time, it will be impossible to address that metric. it cannot be, can develop challenges while the world's too large as the gardner ms. toms with each other. yet i fear our world is creeping towards 2 different sets of economic trade, financial and technological rules. to divert the approaches in the development, artificial intelligence, and ultimately the risk of 2 different military and geopolitical strategies. and this is the recipe for trouble. it will be far less predictable than the cold war to restore trust. and despite hope, we need cooperation, we did lie a lot. we understand the we need to invest in prevention, peacekeeping and peace building. we need progress on nuclear. these are a month and you know, a share that 1st call that federal reason. we did the actions anchor in respect for human rights and we need that new comprehensive agenda for peace. excellencies seconds, we must bridge the climate divide. this requires breathing tough between loss and sauce. it starts by doing all we can now to create the conditions for success in glasgow. we need more ambition from all countries in city, key areas, mitigation, finance and that application. more ambition on mitigation means countries can meeting to got about know that always be by mid century and to concrete, 2030 missions reductions targets that will get that they're backed up with credible actions now want to be should on finance means developing nations developing nations finally seeing the problem is $100000000000.00 us dollars a year for climate action. fully mobilizing the resources of both international financial institutions and the private sector to and more efficient on that station means developed countries leading up to the problem is of credible support to developing countries to build resilience, to save lives, and lively woods. and these means 50 percent of all climate finance provided by the developed countries and multilateral development. banks should be dedicated to their station. the african development banks at the bar in 2019 by locating i'll have you the climate finance weather station in that particular area. this is on my message to every member said, these, these don't wait for others to make the 1st move. do your part of the world with the civil society led by young people. fully mobile lies to tackle the climate rises. the private sector is increasingly stepping up. the government's must also summon the full force of their fiscal policy, making powers to make the shift to get in economies by texting, carbon pollution instead of people's income to more easily make switch to sustainable green jobs by adding subsidies to fossil fuels and free gap resources to invest back into health care, education, renewable energy, sustainable food systems, and social protection for the people. back to me think to know new co plans you fall in the fall plan, coal power plants become operational. we will not only be clearly about about $1.00 degrees will be well above 2 degrees and the perry, starter goods will go up in smoke disease. a planetary emergency would have correlations of solidarity between countries that still depend heavily on call. and countries that have the financial and technical resources to support their transition. we have the opportunity and the obligation to act. excellencies, sir, we must bridge the gap between rich and poor, within and among countries that start by ending the pandemic for everyone. everywhere. we urgently need the global vaccination plan to at least double vaccine production and ensure that the vaccines reach 70 percent of the population. in the 1st of 2022. this plan could be implemented by the emergency task force made up of present the potential vaccine producers, the world of organization ac, the accelerated partners and international financial institutions, working with pharmaceutical companies. we have no time to lose. a lopsided recovery is deepening inequalities reach a countries could reach, but then the growth rates by the other vizier, while the impacts may last 40 years in low income countries. is it any wonder attends the economies are investing nearly 28 percent of their gross domestic product? it with the nomic recovery for middle income countries, that number falls to 6.5 percent and it's plummet to 1.8 percent for the least developed countries at tiny percentage of a much smaller among. in sub saharan africa, the international monetary fund projects that coolant, the vicar nomic, they'll spend a copy that over the next 5 years will be 75 percent less than the rest of the world. many countries needs a nurture, the injection of liquidity. i welcome be sure, the $650000000000.00 us dollars in special going rides by the international monetary fund. but these s, the yards are largely going to the countries that need them least advance the economy should relocate their surplus as the 2 countries the need. as the as not the silver bullets, but they provide us space for sustainable recovery and gross irene. you also might fall for a reform that more equitable international deb textures. the depth service suspension initiative must be extended to 2022 and should be available to allow eileen in depth in vulnerable and middle income countries at the request it. these will be solely that is in action. countries students have to choose between servicing and serving people with effective international folly. that it will, it will be possible at the national level to forge a new social contract that includes universal health coverage and income protection, housing and decent work quality education for all. and then to discrimination and violence against women and goals. i call on countries to reform the tech systems and finally infects the vision, money laundering, and the lease it's financial flows. and as we look ahead, we need the better system of prevention and preparedness for all major global risks . we must support recommendations of independence, panel, and preparedness. and the response. i have put forward a number of other proposals in our common agenda, including any emergency platform and the futures lab. madame same issue the up ways on top. get the animal, develop complete live, foresee on tony's on look, will be these nis. i mean, i knew exactly how be la please. yes. you see him on the busy can be by the wire on tale arm ellie. fun. last lot of the yes. got be they found her place on tele measure of the to the part. yeah. the me and leave me alone. really put me at i met looked at her house. she's boss will still keep up with the material they call long to she they feed the money. yeah. this proportion a find all the who the month only or is that be the last it close to them really foresee on girls were disproportionately hit my school closures limit their development and increase the risk of abuse violence and child marriage. bridging the agenda, divide is not only a matter matter of justice for women and girls, it is a game changer for humana changes. societies with more equal representation and more stable and peaceful or they have better health systems and more in vibrant economies. women's equality is essentially a question of power. we must urgently transform our male dominated world and to shift the balance of power to so the most challenging problems of our age. and that means more women leaders in parliament's cabinets and boardrooms. a means women fully represented and making their full contribution everywhere. i urge governments corporations and other institutions to take both steps, including benchmarks and quotas to create gender parity from the leadership down the united nations. we have achieved this among the senior management and our country team leaders. we will keep going until we have parity at every level. at the same time, we need to push back against regressive laws that institutionalize gender discrimination. women rights a human rights. economic recovery plan should focus on women, including through large scale investments in daycare economy. and we need an emergency plan to fight gender based violence in every country to achieve the sustainable development goals and build a better world. we can, and we must bridge the gender, divide the money, excellencies to restoring trust and inspiring hope of means bridging. the digital divide, half of humanity has no access to the internet. we must connect to every one by 2030. and this is a vision of my roadmap for digital cooperation to embrace the promise of digital technology while protecting people from its perils. one of the greatest perils we face is a growing range of digital platforms and the use and abuse of data home. vast library of information is being assembled about each one of us and we don't even have the keys to the pharmacy won't get. we don't know how this information has been collected by whom or for what purposes. but we do know our data is being used commercially to boost corporate profits. our behavior patterns are being commodified and sold like futures contracts, money. our data is also being used to influence our perceptions and opinions, governments and others can exploit it to control or manipulate people's behavior, to violating human rights of individuals or groups and undermining democracy. this is not science fiction. it is science fact and it requires a serious discussion. so to do other dangerous in the digital frontier, i'm certain, for example, that any future major confrontation and heaven forbid it should ever happen. we'll start with a massive cyber attack. where are the legal frameworks to address this? to day autonomous weapons can choose targets and kill people without human interference. they should be banned. but there is no consensus on how to regulate those technologies to restore trust and inspire hope. we need to place human rights at the center of our efforts to ensure a safe, equitable, and open digital future for all dealing with excellence is sick. and finally, we need to bridge the divide among generations. and young people will inherit the consequences of our decisions. good and bad. at the same time, we expect the 210900000000 people will be borne by centuries end. we need to tell us their energy is ideas. common agenda proposes the transforming education summit next year to address the learning crisis and expand opportunities for today's one point. 8000000000 young people, whatever, know, but i know you need other space yet. but young people need more than support unless they need a seat at the table. and for this i will appoint a special envoy for future generations and create the united nations use office. and the contributions of young people will be central to the summit of the future. as set out and common agenda. young people need a vision of hope for the future. recent research showed that the majority of young people across 10 countries suffering from high levels of anxiety and distress over the state of our planet. yet some 60 percent of your future voters feel betrayed by the government. we must approve to children and young people. despite the seriousness of the situation, the world does have a plan and that governments are committed to implementing it. we need to back now to bridge the great divides and save humanity and the planet, which was we the real engage. i don't see we can leave off by advancing the interests of all common futures. instead of dependence is the logic of the 21st century. and it is the low start of united nations. this is our time and moment for transformation and needed to reignite multilateralism. an age of possibilities that restore trust, that inspired hope. and let us start right now. thank you. you want to go to veto, will bring you life pictures from the united nations for the united nation mission . the secretary general until you could tell us has been making his opening remarks at the 76 general assembly, very wide ranging amongst a he started talking about the impact of climate change. he was also talking about humanities advances and it's significant failures. he talked about a malady of mistrust, fundamental rights and freedoms were being sacrificed. he said people were watching billionaires joy riding in space, while others were going hungry. he said there was a breakdown and trust which was leading to a breakdown in values and he listed 6 as he called them grand canyons which had to be bridge to peace climates. the divide between, between rich and par, the divide between genders, the digital divide, and also the generation divide. i want to bring in james base out to fanatic editor who's been listening to all of this. there was a lot of speculation. james, in the media earlier on that until the terrors wasn't going to pull any punches when he made his opening speech. and that certainly sounded as though he was making his position really clear. a very, very strong speech by the 2nd general. the 1st un inside is who been working here for many years, say they believe that possibly was the strongest ever speech they heard by un secretary general. let me just remind you what he said at the beginning because he started a little bit earlier than we expected and i was still talking to you. so let me just read you the very 1st line of the speech. i am here to sound the alarm, the world must wake up. we are on the edge of an abyss and moving in the wrong direction. and that negative tone certainly was in the 1st of the speech of the outline, the problems of the world. talking about code with 19 talking about the climate crisis, pummeling the planet talking about human rights on the part sons on the assault with regard to cobra. 19, he talked about the inequality. he said the majority of the wealthy world was vaccinated over 90 percent of africans. is still waiting for that 1st dose. he said that was a moral indictment to the state of the world and obscenity. he said we passed the sunset test, we get f.
