Al Jazeera Launches Quiz Matching Famous Quotes to UN General Assembly Speakers
As world leaders take the podium at this year's UN General Assembly, Al Jazeera has published an interactive quiz testing readers on well-known quotes from past sessions.

With world leaders gathering at the United Nations General Assembly podium this week, Al Jazeera has published an interactive quiz inviting readers to match ten famous quotes to the figures who delivered them.
The feature comes as the annual General Assembly session draws global attention, with heads of state and government using the platform to address a wide range of international issues each year.
A recurring moment on the world stage
The UN General Assembly has long produced memorable rhetorical moments, with speeches from world leaders often quoted and referenced well beyond the immediate session. Al Jazeera's quiz format offers readers a way to engage with this history while following the current week's proceedings.
The interactive quiz is presented as a lighter accompaniment to the outlet's broader coverage of this year's General Assembly, which includes reporting on the substantive policy discussions taking place among member states.
Readers can access the quiz directly through Al Jazeera's website alongside its ongoing General Assembly coverage.
