New York: Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi plans to travel to New York to attend the session of the UN General Assembly, next month, the government’s spokesman said on Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 77th session of the UN General Assembly will open on Tuesday, September 13 in New York.<\/p>\n

It will be Raisi\u2019s second visit to New York to attend the largest international conference as he enters the second year of his presidency. Raisi started his work in August 2021.<\/p>\n

“The preliminary planning has been done for the president’s attendance at the UN General Assembly session,” Ali Bahadori-Jahromi told a weekly press briefing.<\/p>\n

Raisi, who has been under US sanctions since November 2019, missed last year’s General Assembly because of the Covid-19 pandemic. A pre-recorded video of his address was played to the meeting instead.<\/p>\n

When Washington added his name to its blacklist of Iranian officials, Raisi was still judiciary chief. He became president in June 2021.<\/p>\n

The General Assembly opens in New York on September 13.<\/p>\n
