Nepal PM Balendra Shah to Attend UN General Assembly, Focus on Climate Change
Nepal Prime Minister Balendra Shah will make his first foreign trip since taking office in March by attending the 81st United Nations General Assembly in New York starting September 21. Shah is scheduled to address the General Debate on September 24 and meet UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. He plans to highlight climate change and link it to the recent devastating flash floods in Nepal that caused over 1,450 deaths and thousands missing. The delegation includes senior officials, and Shah invited opposition leaders for consultations before departure.
