Observance
editSo, is there any nation (besides UN-governed Kosovo, as mentioned in the article) which actually honors UN-Day as a national holiday? --BjKa (talk) 12:54, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
Observance in the United States
editApparently it was reasonably popular in the United States during part of the 1950's (especially when the U.N. was the umbrella organization for troops fighting in Korea), but the U.N.'s reputation in the U.S. took a big nosedive with the rise of third-worldism in the 1970s and UNGA 3379, and now very few people in the U.S. know or care about the day...

US presidential proclamations
editWhat is the point of a separate sentence for each of the past five years' US presidential proclamations, if the same thing has been done every year since 1946?--Pharos (talk) 03:49, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
