NEW YORK, Sept 16 ― All leaders and diplomats attending the United Nations General Assembly in New York next week will have to provide proof of vaccination, the city government said yesterday, sparking anger from Russia.

New York began enforcing a vaccine mandate on Monday, requiring proof of at least one shot for many indoor activities, including restaurants and entertainment venues. Vassily Nebenzia wrote to assembly president Abdulla Shahid yesterday saying he had been “very much surprised and disappointed” by a letter Shahid wrote to members in which he supported the proof of vaccination requirement.

New York accepts all vaccines that have been approved by either the World Health Organisation or America's federal Food and Drug Administration. The city's letter also reminded diplomats that New York state requires everyone to wear masks on public transport.
