The General Assembly is an organ of the United Nations that convenes annually in New York, as noted during sessions referenced in connection with U.S. President Donald Trump's planned speech on September 22 and a scheduled meeting requested by Cuba regarding sanctions. It serves as a forum for member states to discuss international issues such as trade blockades, parliamentary democracy, and financial obligations to the UN, including provisions that allow suspension of voting rights for countries with overdue contributions.
