In her scripted speech to the UN general assembly late on Wednesday night, Pandor only once referred to the “war in Eastern Europe”, together with the Covid-19 pandemic, as factors that “shape our attitudes today”.
“These are all matters that concern us. It was primarily, I think, leaders of the West who referred to Ukraine and Russia, while the many African leaders who spoke made reference to the terrible conflict on the African continent,” she said. In SA’s perennial call for the reform of the UN, where the five nations on the UN security council “wield disproportionate decision-making power”, Pandor again made a sideways reference to Israel when she said the UN could not be credible “if persistent transgressors of the charter are not held accountable”.
Another conflict in Africa under the spotlight this week is the war in Ethiopia’s northern Tigray region, which has been running for almost two years.
