Background<\/h1>\n

The election of the President of the seventy-seventh session of the General Assembly was held on 1 June 2022 in the General Assembly Hall, in line with Rule 30 of the Rules of Procedure<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In accordance with the established regional rotation, the President of the seventy-seventh session of the General Assembly was to be elected from the Latin American and Caribbean States. H.E. Mr. Dennis Francis of Trinidad and Tobago was elected by acclamation.<\/p>\n

In its resolution 71\/323<\/a>, entitled \u201cRevitalization of the work of the General Assembly\u201d, the Assembly decided to call upon candidates for the position of President of the General Assembly to present their vision statements, and to conduct informal interactive dialogues with Member States, thus contributing to the transparency and inclusivity of the process.<\/p>\n

\u00a0To allow for adequate time between the informal interactive dialogue and the election, the President of the seventy-seventh session of the General Assembly, H.E. Mr. Csaba K\u0151r\u00f6si, convened an informal interactive dialogue with H.E. Dennis Francis on 12 May 2023 at 3:00 p.m. in the Trusteeship Council Chamber. The video recordings of the informal interactive dialogue can be viewed on Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Web TV<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Civil society representatives and individuals were invited to submit their questions to the candidate for the position of President of the seventy-eighth session of the General Assembly to be answered during the interactive dialogue. Questions were collected via an online form and were asked in-person and via pre-recorded videos.<\/p>\n
