Hamas, Israel truce talks intensify over Gaza "Ceasefire negotiations have intensified as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cites ""intense talks,"" amidst rising public outcry over his decision to resume bombing in Gaza. Hamas has confirmed that it received the proposal through Egypt and is reviewing a new truce and prisoner swap deal. However, the Palestinian resistance group also expressed reservations, with a senior official noting a ""red line"" regarding disarmament. Israel has waged a genocidal war on Gaza since October 2023, killing over 50,000 people." Israeli army corps press Netanyahu to prioritise hostages "Over 1,520 Israeli soldiers, commanders and veterans, including ex-generals and former Prime Minister and army chief Ehud Barak, have issued a powerful petition. They urge the Benjamin Netanyahu-led far-right government to prioritise the release of Israelis held in Gaza, even if it means ending the war. Published by Maariv, a Hebrew-language daily newspaper, the appeal reflects mounting pressure from within the military ranks. Nearly ten such petitions have surfaced since Thursday. Prime Minister Netanyahu has responded with threats to dismiss any active-duty signatories, deepening tensions within Israel's military and political circles." UN chief warns deepening Sudan crisis as civil war enters its third year "UN Chief Antonio Guterres has issued a stark warning as Sudan's brutal war enters its third year. Over 12 million people have been uprooted in what he calls the world's largest displacement crisis. Most of those who fled the country mainly went to Ethiopia, Egypt, Central African Republic and Chad. With famine looming and 25 million facing acute hunger, Guterres condemned attacks on civilians and aid workers, urging global action. “The world must not forget Sudan,” he stressed, pushing for peace and accountability as the death toll nears 130,000." US, El Salvador leaders meet to enhance ties, address crime issues "US President Donald Trump welcomed his El Salvadoran counterpart, Nayib Bukele, to the White House, emphasising a ""historic partnership"" aimed at improving global safety. The two leaders discussed El Salvador's role in holding US-deported criminals in the Terrorism Confinement Center also known as CECOT prison, with Trump highlighting the removal of violent offenders from American streets. Discussions also covered economic growth, tariffs, and security, with Trump's tariffs impacting Salvadoran exports. Bukele's visit marks a pivotal moment in US-El Salvador relations, strengthening cooperation on criminal justice and regional prosperity." Harvard faces $2.2B freeze for defying Gaza protest policies "The Trump administration has intensified pressure on academic institutions to intervene and stop student protests criticising Israel's war against Palestine. Harvard University is facing a $2.2 billion freeze in federal funding after rejecting demands from the Trump administration over its Gaza protests and policies. The administration's demands, including a crackdown on pro-Palestine demonstrations and a ban on campus masking, were swiftly denied by Harvard, with President Alan Garber defending the institution's independence. The move follows similar actions against Columbia, Cornell and Northwestern universities. Critics, like Senator Bernie Sanders, praised Harvard's defiance."

"Nobody wins in trade wars," said António Guterres as he left a UN Security Council meeting this week. But it's clear there's at least one big loser: American diplomacy. This week, Anjali and Mark break down how the Trump tariffs are rippling through the UN — and how they're complicating diplomacy on issues that have nothing to do with trade. We also speculate on who Trump might tap as his next envoy now that Elise Stefanik is out. Plus, we dig into the UN's role in Gaza as both diplomacy and humanitarian aid grind to a halt, and what's next for the World Food Program after a stunning announcement — and sudden retraction — from a senior DOGE official.

UN chief calls Gaza a 'killing field', condemns Israel for aid blockade UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has condemned the suffering caused by Israeli war in Gaza, calling it “a killing field” and holding Tel Aviv responsible for blocking humanitarian aid and neglecting its obligations under international law. Speaking to journalists, Guterres stressed that no aid—food, fuel, medicine, or supplies—has entered Gaza for over a month, warning that the ""floodgates of horror have re-opened."" He cited the Geneva Conventions, emphasizing Israel's duty as an occupying power to provide for the civilian population, which he said is not being fulfilled. Gaza is now Hiroshima: Israeli soldiers describe their horrendous crimes Israeli soldiers have given detailed testimonies revealing widespread destruction and killings in Gaza as part of efforts to establish a so-called buffer zone, according to a new report by the Israeli group Breaking the Silence. The report compiles firsthand accounts from soldiers involved in the invasion, describing the razing of large areas inside Gaza. The group stated that the deliberate devastation was aimed at paving the way for future Israeli control of the territory. Punitive US tariffs on China to hit 104 percent: White House The US will impose a 104 percent tariff on Chinese goods starting on Wednesday, the White House announced. Spokesperson Karoline Leavitt confirmed the move, stating the tariffs will take effect at midnight. Leavitt said President Trump believes China ""has to make a deal"" and criticised Beijing's retaliation as a mistake. She added that Trump would be “incredibly gracious” if China engages, but emphasised he will act in the best interest of the American people. Over 100 killed in RSF attacks near Khartoum: Sudanese medics More than 100 people, including women and children, were killed in attacks by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Omdurman, the twin city of Sudan's capital, Khartoum, according to Sudanese medics. The Sudan Doctors Network reported that the deaths occurred over the past week in the Jama'iya region, south of Omdurman, as violence continues to escalate in the conflict-hit country. Trump admin freezes funding for Cornell, Northwestern University The Trump administration has frozen over $1 billion in funding for Cornell University and $790 million for Northwestern University amid investigations into alleged civil rights violations, a US official said. The paused funding includes grants and contracts from federal departments such as health, education, agriculture, and defence. The move follows the administration's threats to cut funds over pro-Palestine campus protests.

El mundo financiero, comercial, bursátil y político, atraviesa fuertes sacudidas por la guerra arancelaria de los Estados Unidos. Aunque este martes hubo una recuperación de los mercados luego de tres días de multimillonarias pérdidas (incluyendo un "lunes negro" como suele denominarse a una caída mayúscula) lo cierto es que todo se desarrolla con inmensa incertidumbre dada la inminencia de contramedidas por parte de los actores medulares. Esto por cuanto mientras la Unión Europea se decanta por esperar una semana más para anunciar nuevos aranceles de respuesta y ya dejó sobre la mesa su propuesta de cero aranceles recíprocos, Canadá optó por el ataque anunciando que "maximizará el daño a los Estados Unidos". Pero claro, la verdadera debacle será la respuesta de China, que (a la hora de escribir este texto) aún no anuncia si suspenderá su decisión de imponer 34% de aranceles a Estados Unidos en respuesta al 34% que le asestó Trump la semana pasada y que llevó la tasa al 54% por el 20% existente de previo. El caso es que si mantiene reciprocidad con su 34%, Trump redoblaría la apuesta con un 50% adicional. Una locura de 104%. Según Trump, China está desesperada por negociar, pero no sabe por dónde empezar. Pero confía en que en los instantes previos al disparo demoledor del reloj de medianoche, lo hará: "Sucederá", dijo. China mientras tanto activó el mecanismo de consulta a Estados Unidos ante una Organización Mundial de Comercio totalmente opacada por el poder de la Casa Blanca, justo adonde Trump quiere que todos los países vayan a negociar acuerdos uno por uno. Por eso está exultante, pues dice que ya 70 naciones han pedido negociar sus aranceles. Por lo pronto ya empezó con Israel y Corea del Sur, nación a la que pretende cobrarle la "protección militar tan grande" que recibe de los EEUU. En tanto los países grandes y los bloques barajan sus opciones, el Secretario General de Naciones Unidas, António Guterres, advirtió acerca del impacto "devastador" que esta guerra comercial implicará para los países pobres. Pero Trump está convencido de su ruta y asegura que Estados Unidos ya está ganando $2 mil millones al día por los nuevos aranceles Para entender este complejo tinglado de la nueva guerra mundial conversamos con el economista, Víctor Umaña.

Trump escalates global trade war with new 'Liberation Day' tariffs "US President Donald Trump has unveiled a sweeping new ""Liberation Day"" tariffs in a decision that is billed to escalate a devastating global trade war. He announced plans for sweeping tariffs on Wednesday, saying ""our country has been looted, pillaged, raped, plundered"" by other nations. Trump promised so-called reciprocal tariffs on friends and foes alike if they target the world's largest economy, saying the levies will stop the United States being ""ripped off." UN chief 'deeply alarmed' by human toll in Gaza "UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expressed deep alarm about the human cost of intensified Israeli attacks in besieged Gaza. His spokesperson's office state that Guterres condemns the reported killing of over a thousand people, including women and children, since the collapse of the ceasefire."" The Israeli army killed at least 86 Palestinians in a series of air strikes across besieged Gaza." PKK/YPG to withdraw from Aleppo under deal with Syrian government "The PKK/YPG terror group will withdraw from two neighbourhoods in Aleppo under an agreement with the Syrian government, a Syrian official told. The group's so-called ""internal security forces"" in Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafieh neighbourhoods will be unified under a single structure and placed under the Interior Ministry. The official noted the deal includes provisions for removing barricades in the neighbourhood and forming committees to establish security checkpoints." Columbia students chain themselves to protest Mahmoud Khalil's detention "Students at Columbia University in New York, US, have chained themselves to the entrance gate of the school campus to demand the release of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, who was detained for leading demonstrations in support of Palestine last Spring. A group of students, mostly of Jewish origin, organised a demonstration to protest the detention of Khalil on Wednesday, chanting slogans such as "Freedom for Palestine" and "Mahmoud Khalil, release him immediately." Amazon makes a last-minute bid to buy TikTok in US: report "Amazon has made a last-minute bid to buy TikTok, which faces a US ban if not sold by its Chinese owner, the New York Times reported on Wednesday. President Donald Trump has downplayed risks that TikTok is in danger of being banned in the United States, saying he remains confident of finding a buyer for the app's US business by a Saturday deadline. According to reports, the most likely solution would see existing US investors in ByteDance roll over their stakes into a new independent global TikTok company.

This article by Richard Gowan was published at worldpoliticsreview.com on March 19, 2025. It is now almost exactly two months since U.S. President Donald Trump returned to the White House and set about weakening the United Nations. On his first day in office, Trump announced that the U.S. would quit the Paris Agreement on climate change as well as the World Health Organization. At the time, I argued that these were predictable maneuvers, as he had taken similar steps in his first term. Diplomats and international officials in New York were resigned to Trump taking early pot-shots at the U.N. but hoped that he would move on to other targets. Two months later, U.N. insiders admit that the new administration has done far more harm to the institution than they had expected. And they worry that it will do even greater damage before long. While the administration's cuts to foreign aid have hit U.N. agencies hard, U.N. officials had expected to face financial strains. But Washington has also blocked information-sharing by U.S. government entities with their U.N. counterparts on issues ranging from epidemics to indicators of famine. That has stopped the flow of data that U.N. agencies often relied on more than they would care to admit. In parallel, U.S. diplomats in New York and Geneva have instructions to purge multilateral documents of references to words the Trump administration dislikes, like "gender" and "diversity." These strictures have upset routine U.N. committee processes on issues ranging from children's wellbeing to peacekeeping, as U.S. negotiators have focused on these semantic points to the exclusion of all other topics. Their foreign counterparts quip that U.S. diplomats simply use the "Ctrl+F" keyboard shortcut to search draft texts for offending nouns and verbs to cut, in order to win credit with Washington. Foreign officials in New York had always expected the Trump administration to be transactional rather than principled in its multilateral diplomacy. But its obsession with rooting out supposedly leftist notions has convinced many that it is ultimately following a right-wing ideological template, making it significantly harder to bargain with. The U.S. has reinforced this view by circulating a questionnaire to U.N. agencies asking if they have had any association with communists or other anti-American forces. While senior figures in New York have tracked the White House's attacks, they have had few real openings to understand U.S. thinking. The Senate confirmation of Trump's nominee as ambassador to the U.N., Rep. Elise Stefanik, has been put on hold to allow Stefanik to remain in Congress, as the slim and unruly Republican majority makes her vote indispensable for upcoming budgetary negotiations. Beleaguered diplomats at the U.S. mission to the U.N. have tended to postpone big decisions until her eventual arrival, which is now expected in early April but could slip further into the future. Some major U.S. initiatives - such as the decision to side with Moscow rather than Kyiv in a series of General Assembly and Security Council votes in February marking the anniversary of Russia's all-out invasion of Ukraine - have seemed quite haphazardly put together. The bleakest observers suspect that the Trump administration not only does not care about the U.N. but actively wants to subvert it. Worried U.N. member states have been urging the organization's leaders to try to get ahead of this burgeoning crisis. In February and early March, major financial donors to the U.N. fretted that Secretary-General Antonio Guterres - who handled Trump quite successfully in his first term - was not taking the scale of the current U.S. threat seriously. Last week, Guterres announced a review of the U.N.'s mandates and structures to identify savings and efficiencies. He has, rather unconvincingly, tried to present this as an independent initiative rather than a stop-gap response to Trump. Looking ahead, denizens of the U.N. bubble broa...

Líder da organização disse que a localização das instalações das Nações Unidas é claramente conhecida de todos os lados do conflito; ele enviou pêsames à família da vítima e disse que outros cinco funcionários ficaram gravemente feridos no ataque.

* Netanyahu orders prep for ceasefire talks under US proposal Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a meeting with a delegation that returned from Qatar to discuss ceasefire negotiations in Gaza. At the end of the meeting that included ministers and security officials, Netanyahu ordered preparations for negotiations under a proposal by US President Donald Trump's Special Mideast Envoy Steve Witkoff. The proposal includes the immediate release of 11 Israeli hostages and the remains of half of the deceased captives. Israeli media previously reported that Witkoff presented a new proposal during ceasefire talks in Doha. * US, Russia discuss Ukraine, Yemen strikes US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov spoke to discuss the next stage in talks on ending the Ukraine war. According to State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce, the top diplomats "agreed to continue working towards restoring communication between the United States and Russia". Rubio also updated Lavrov on military activity in the Middle East, where US forces carried out deadly strikes against Houthis in Yemen. * Over 100,000 rally in Serbia against Vucic government At least 100,000 people descended on Belgrade for a mass rally seen as a culmination of months-long protests against Serbia's President Aleksandar Vucic and his government. Large crowds of flag-waving protesters clogged the downtown area of the capital despite occasional rain, with people hardly able to move and many stuck hundreds of metres away from the planned protest venue. Police said the crowd reached 107,000 people with no major incidents reported. Serbian independent media described the rally as the biggest ever in the country, saying the numbers were much higher. * Bangladeshi students urge UN to seek ICC trial for Hasina Bangladeshi student representatives urged the United Nations to assist in taking former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's case to the International Criminal Court over alleged crimes against humanity committed during the July uprising last year. The demand was made on Saturday during a meeting between a student delegation and visiting UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in Dhaka. Guterres is in Bangladesh for a four-day visit, set to conclude on Sunday. * Trump mutes Voice of America, employees put on leave President Donald Trump's administration has begun making deep cuts to Voice of America and other government-run, pro-democracy programming, with the organisation's director saying all VOA employees have been put on leave. On Friday night, shortly after Congress passed its latest funding bill, Trump directed his administration to reduce the functions of several agencies to the minimum required by law. That included the US Agency for Global Media, which houses Voice of America, Radio Free Europe and Asia and Radio Marti, which beams Spanish-language news into Cuba.
