Earthquake in Türkiye and Syria
6 February 2023
[As Delivered]
Before proceeding to the items on the agenda, I would like, on behalf of the General Assembly, to extend our deepest sympathy and heartfelt condolences to the Governments and peoples of Türkiye and the Syrian Arab Republic for the tragic loss of life and damage that have resulted from the recent earthquake. I now invite representatives to stand and observe a minute of silence in tribute to the memory of those who lost their lives.
