As many as 100 world leaders will attend the United Nations General Assembly session. But a bigger debate has arisen in America than this convention on how correct it is to admit leaders who are not yet vaccinated. Among them is Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro, with whom something happened in New York yesterday, which embarrassed him.

Bolsonaro, along with his ministers, had arrived in New York to eat pizza. But because he has not received any vaccine so far, he was stopped from entering the restaurant. After this, he and his ministers had to eat pizza while standing on the road outside the restaurant. Although Bolsonaro and his other ministers were laughing while eating on the street, the world is saying that the President of Brazil is constantly embarrassing his country in New York by not getting the vaccine.

In this, another big news of today is that his health minister, who ate pizza with Bolsonaro, has also got coronavirus now.

Earlier, he had to be embarrassed in a meeting with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson in New York. Boris Johnson said in this meeting that the Astrazeneca Vaccine is fantastic and he has had both doses of it, on which the President of Brazil did not have much to say, so he pointed his finger and said that he hasn't been vaccinated.

When Bolsonaro, 66, arrived in New York, he had to enter the hotel through the back door due to being unvaccinated. Apart from this, he was also seen wearing a mask after his speech at the United Nations General Assembly.

Bolsonaro is also being criticized because Brazil has the highest number of deaths due to COVID-19 in the world after America. But Bolsonaro makes an anti-vaccine statement and says that after recovering from Covid, antibodies have been formed in him, so the vaccine is of no use to him.

At present in New York, it is necessary for the people participating in indoor events to be fully vaccinated. And the Mayor of New York has said that due to the session of the United Nations General Assembly, the coronavirus may spread there. But the United Nations has a different opinion on this.

Under a 1947 agreement, the US Army is also not allowed to enter the UN Headquarters without approval. Therefore, the UN says that the rules which are applicable in New York, those rules do not apply to the UN Headquarters. Therefore, unvaccinated leaders can also come there and give speeches.
