Play Video: Syria, Lebanon, Iraq & other topics - Daily Press Briefing (6 Dec 2024) | United Nations

Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: Secretary-General/trip announcement Secretary-General/Yemen Financing for development Syria United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon Lebanon Occupied Palestinian Territory Iraq Haiti Somalia Latin America and the Caribbean Food price index Aviation Day SECRETARY-GENERAL/TRIP ANNOUNCEMENT The Secretary-General will be heading to South Africa and Lesotho next week. On Wednesday, he will be in South Africa, where he will meet with President Cyril Ramaphosa and other senior South African government officials. Discussions will focus on global and regional issues, but especially on South Africa’s G20 Presidency and its leadership on financing for development. The Secretary-General will underscore that with South Africa taking the G20 helm and being the first African country to preside over the G20, there is a significant opportunity for the G20 to help advance Africa’s priorities. On Thursday, the Secretary-General will proceed to neighbouring Lesotho where he will meet with the King of Lesotho, Letsie III, the Prime Minister and other officials. The Secretary-General will seize this opportunity of this visit to show solidarity with the African continent, that has been a victim of global injustices that are denying African nations their rightful place on the world’s stage. The visit to Lesotho is symbolic as it is a small land-locked country that has suffered the dramatic impacts of climate change, which will cost African economies billions of dollars every year. While there, he is scheduled to address the Parliament as Lesotho celebrates the bicentenary of the founding of the Basotho nation, a moment the Secretary-General is honoured to share with the people of Lesotho. The history of this country is rich, and its location in the heart of southern Africa and commitment to sustainable development puts it in a unique position. Prior to departing Lesotho, the Secretary-General will visit the Katse Dam which is central to the Lesotho Highlands Water Project and to water management in the broader region. SECRETARY-GENERAL/YEMEN In a statement issued today, the Secretary-General renewed his call for the immediate and unconditional release of the humanitarian personnel arbitrarily detained by the Houthis in Yemen. It has been six months since the detention of more than 50 personnel from the United Nations, international and national non-governmental organizations, from civil society, and diplomatic missions, in addition to the four other UN personnel detained in 2021 and 2023. The Secretary-General acknowledged the recent release of one UN staff member and two NGO personnel recently but recalled that the continued arbitrary detention of dozens of others is unacceptable and constitutes a violation of international law. These detentions threaten the safety of humanitarian personnel and significantly impair efforts to assist millions of people in need. These actions are inconsistent with genuine engagement in peace efforts. The United Nations, NGOs and other relevant international partners are working through all possible channels and authorities to secure the immediate release of those arbitrarily detained. FINANCING FOR DEVELOPMENT Also today, the Secretary-General is appointing a group of prominent experts to promote actionable policy solutions and galvanize political and public support required to resolve the debt crisis. This work will inform the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD4), which is an intergovernmental process facilitated by the UN, which will take place from 30 June to 3 July, in Sevilla, Spain next year. The developing world is currently facing an unprecedented debt crisis, with dozens of countries struggling under the weight of debt service that threatens economic stability, social progress, and sustainable development. And yet, to date, the global response has fallen short. The group will be led by Mr. Mahmoud Mohieldin, the UN Special Envoy on Financing for the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda, and co-chaired by Mr. Paolo Gentiloni, the former European Commissioner for Economy, Mr. Trevor Manuel, the former Minister of Finance of South Africa, and Ms. Yan Wang, a Senior Academic Researcher at the Boston University Global Development Policy Center. That has been shared with you electronically as we speak. Full Highlights: https://www.un.org/sg/en/content/noon-briefing-highlight?date%5Bvalue%5D%5Bdate%5D=06%20December%202024

In Mauritania climate change and rising temperatures are accelerating desertification and exacerbating food insecurity and poverty. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) supports the communities to grow food by halting desertification and restoring fertile land. FAO is supporting the introduction of innovative solutions such as agricultural drones to seed for land restoration in large, scarcely populated areas. This technology allows small communities to restore larger areas in less time.

Syrian anti-government rebels were closing in on the city of Homs on Friday, as they gained new ground in a fresh offensive against President Bashar al-Assad. This has led to tens of thousands of people fleeing Homs, Syria's third-largest city. The rebels seized Hama to the north on Thursday, a second major blow to President Bashar al-Assad who lost control of Aleppo last week. Their goal is to overthrow Assad's regime, the leader of Islamist militant group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham said. Meanwhile, Kurdish-led forces have also reportedly seized control of Deir al-Zour in eastern Syria.
