Many world leaders have been delivering pre-recorded speeches this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The UAE delegation has been focusing its efforts on seven priorities during the Assembly discussions.

These include supporting regional stability in the Middle East and North Africa, promoting tolerance and interfaith dialogue, working as a responsible global citizen to help the most vulnerable in response to COVID-19 and investing in the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
