The 72nd session of the @UnitedNations General Assembly (UNGA72) opened at the UN Headquarters in New York City on Tuesday, September 12, 2017. This week marks UNGA's high-level week, when leaders from around the globe gather at UN Headquarters to address some of the world's most pressing issues. During UNGA 72, the United States will have numerous opportunities to engage multilaterally and bilaterally to advance U.S. priorities in five key areas: addressing the threat to global peace and security posed by NorthKorea; deescalating the conflict in Syria; broadening multilateral #counterterrorism efforts to defeat ISIS and other terrorist organizations; taking bold steps on UN reform; and bolstering support for humanitarian assistance to ongoing emergencies, in particular for refugees and the communities that host them.
