Ambassador Michael Imran Kanu, Permanent Representative of Sierra Leone to the United Nations and president of the Security Council for November 2025, presented the Councils adopted program of work and outlined four priorities: conflict-related food insecurity, climate-related security risk, proliferation of small arms and light weapons, and youth inclusion in peace and security decision-making. He announced a series of briefings and debates during November, including thematic meetings on climate-security and small arms, a working-methods debate, and a high-level open debate on food insecurity, and said Sierra Leone and Guyana are co-sponsoring a draft resolution on youth, peace and security. During a wide-ranging question-and-answer session, journalists pressed the presidency on Gaza/stabilization-force proposals, Western Sahara, Sudans humanitarian crisis and accountability, the secretary-general selection process, and other country-specific issues.
