UNGA criticised as walkouts and memes replace real diplomacy
Original: Walkouts, threats, memes—why the UNGA now feels more like theatre than diplomacy

Walkouts over controversial speeches, inflammatory threats between member states and viral mocking of leaders online have dominated coverage, fuelling debate about whether the assembly still holds real diplomatic weight or has become a spectacle for grandstanding.
Why now: Dramatic walkouts and confrontational speeches at the current UNGA session are going viral, prompting debate about the decline of serious diplomacy.
