MAIN EVENTS

A delegation from the “United States of the World” and the “Fondazione Mediterraneo” participated as observers in the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA 80), held in New York from 9 to 30 September 2025, with the general debate taking place from 23 to 29 September.
The session celebrated the 80th anniversary of the UN and focused on the theme “Better Together: 80 Years and Beyond for Peace, Development and Human Rights”. Side events were also organised, including the SDG Moment and a Climate Summit.
Secretary-General SUM Michele Capasso reiterated the urgent need to renew the UN to adapt it to today's challenges, stressing that "On 7 October 2023, when Hamas attacked Israel, it blew up the entire system and the pseudo-international order that had emerged at the end of the Second World War, going far beyond the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the conflict between Jews and Muslims. The raid on 7 October 2023 destroyed the myth of Israeli invincibility with Netanyahu's abnormal reaction, which caused tens of thousands of deaths in Gaza, particularly children, victims of a crime against humanity".
