Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian departed for New York on Tuesday to attend the annual session of the United Nations General Assembly. Considerable attention is expected to be focused on him and his address to the General Assembly. Pezeshkian’s presence at the UN aims to showcase a “smart maneuver of diplomacy” to influence global equations and highlight Iran’s rationality and authority on the international stage. The General Assembly session, held annually in the third week of September, is regarded as the largest and most significant political event in the world. The United Nations, particularly the General Assembly, has long been one of the most significant arenas for confrontation, dialogue, and diplomacy among states.
