The premier will also share Pakistan's successful handling of the novel coronavirus, his debt relief initiative for developing countries, and Islamophobia. His address is expected to be aired at 11:45 pm tonight.

On Thursday, in his address at two high-level panel events held on the sideline of UNGA, the PM said each year billions of dollars illicitly flow out of developing countries. He called upon the world to take steps to counter the illicit flows of money, saying that these stolen assets of developing countries must be returned.
