In the first UN address to world leaders as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Liz Truss, proposed a blueprint that would open a new era in the UK and, more broadly, heal the “fracturing principles that have defined our lives since the dark days of the Second World War.”
After the passing of the longest-serving Monarch of Britain, a new chapter is beginning. Truss stated, “the rock on which modern Britain was built”. Truss hopes the new era under King Charles III would be based on new partnerships “and a commitment to hope and progress”.
While extolling the principles of democracy, which alone could ensure economic development and the realization of citizens’ aspirations, Truss added, “This is a divisive moment in the history of this Organization and the history of freedom.”
Prime Minister of the United Kingdom highlighted that her first long-term goal for the UK would be complete annual economic growth of 2. 5 per cent which will generate quality jobs and fund public services.
She also supported more excellent energy stability and less dependence on autocratic regimes for fuel and food supplies, thus ensuring citizens are not held captive by those seeking to weaponize the global economy.
While addressing the world leaders, Truss said, “a real struggle is going on in the world between democracies and autocracies. We must do this together so that we can build new partnerships around the work of deepening links with fellow democracies and building new economic and security ties.”
“The international response to Ukraine has shown how we can deliver diplomatic action and rapid military support. The strength of collective purpose that has made things happen for Ukraine must be used in a more concerted way to push back against autocratic regimes,” Liz Truss added.
Prime Minister of the United Kingdom stated, “no one is terrorizing Russia, yet as we meet, barbarous weapons are being used to kill people”; women were being raped, and families were being torn apart. “Putin is trying to claim the mantle of democracy for a regime without human rights or freedoms.”
