What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Balendra Shah, Prime Minister of Nepal, is scheduled to address the United Nations General Assembly this week. His premiership, which began six months ago, has been shaped by a catastrophic flood on the China-Nepal border that killed more than 1,400 people and left thousands missing. Shah is using the platform to press for greater international support to recover from the disaster, which he links to climate change.
