Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin have spoken on the phone for over 90 minutes thrashing out a deal to halt the bloodshed in Ukraine, and Russia has now agreed to a 30 day energy and infrastructure ceasefire as well as negotiations on the implementation of a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea. In this episode of the Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy speaks to Russia's Ambassador to the UK, Andrei Kelin, about the talks between Russia and the USA over Ukraine, Europe's attempts to provide security guarantees and what there is to stop Russia wanting more territory if it gets everything it wants in this negotiation. Produced by Mariaelena Agostini, Helene Cacace, Calum Fraser and Ka Yee Mak.
The Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, Tom Fletcher today (23 Jan) told the Security Council that “the children of Gaza are not collateral damage” and are “as deserving as children everywhere of security, education and hope.” Before today's meeting on the situation of children in the occupied Palestinian territory began, Russian Ambassador Vasily Nebenzya asked for the floor. Nebenzya said, “the refusal” of UNICEF's Head Catherine Russell to brief today's Council session, was “a flagrant step which deserves our most serious censure.” The Russian Ambassador said Russell, “during the US presidency of the Security Council, came to brief us at the drop of a hat at a disgraceful, politicized briefing about the so-called children's aspects of the situation in Ukraine, on the 4th of December of last year.” Adding, “it would appear that for UNICEF, children in Gaza are less important than children in Ukraine.” United States Ambassador Dorothy Shea also requested the floor and said, “the idea that the United States is responsible for the terrible suffering there is, just unacceptable to us, and we reject it, in its totality.” Fletcher told the Council that children in Gaza, “have been killed, starved and frozen to death. They have been maimed, orphaned, separated from their family. Conservative estimates indicate that over 17,000 children are without their families in Gaza. Some died before their first breath, perishing with their mothers in childbirth. An estimated 150,000 pregnant women and new mothers are in desperate need of health services. Children have lost their schools and their education.” He said children in Gaza “tell us that the world was not there for them throughout this war. We must be there for them now.” Palestinian author Bisan Nateel, who writes children books, told the Council, “we have always been waiting for the moment when the Security Council would announce a ceasefire to end all these massacres and violations against the Palestinians in Gaza. Today, I hope. To live the ceasefire and for all our children to go back to their schools and for us to go back to our normal life when we used to go to our schools, to work, when we used to play, plant, work. The natural act of life, just to live.” Palestinian Ambassador Riyad Mansour called upon the international community “to enable UNWRA to reopen its schools in the Gaza Strip, and to equip it to welcome thousands of children to resume formal education. And to reach every young boy and girl evenly and safely.” For his part, Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon said, “it is Hamas, not Israel, that has turned Gaza into a war zone. It is Hamas, not Israel, that uses children as human shields. It is Hamas, not Israel, that places its terror infrastructure in schools, hospitals and civilian neighbourhoods. But time and time again, this Council chooses to ignore these facts.” The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported that large volumes of humanitarian aid continue to enter Gaza through the Erez and Zikim crossings in the north and Kerem Shalom crossing in the south. Inside Gaza, OCHA says that aid cargo and humanitarian personnel are moving into areas that were previously hard to reach. Hope in Gaza Press conference by Muhannad Hadi, Deputy UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, Resident Coordinator and Humanitarian Coordinator, on the humanitarian situation in Gaza. ---------- “When I entered Gaza this morning, it felt like this was probably one of the happiest days of my professional life,” said Muhannad Hadi, the UN Humanitarian Coordinator for the Occupied Palestinian Territory, during a video press conference from Jerusalem. Hadi had just returned from a visit to Gaza, where he observed signs of recovery amid ongoing humanitarian challenges. Speaking to reporters today (21 Jan), Hadi described a markedly different atmosphere compared to his previous visits over the past year. " The people I met had a different attitude. It made me very happy to see that people had already started moving, some of them going back to their places of origin," he said. "I saw people in the streets starting to clean up the roads. There is a bit more law and order compared to the times before, when I was entering Gaza and seeing our humanitarian trucks being looted. This time, I saw things are improving." During his visit, Hadi toured a communal kitchen operated by the WFP in Khan Younis, where he met families reliant on the meals provided, who told him, “If it wasn't for that kitchen, they probably would have starved to death. But they were very hopeful, and they actually gave me a lot of hope for the future," he said. However, the reliance on humanitarian aid remains a source of frustration for many residents. "All of them told me that what they want now, immediately, is to go home. They want income-generating activities. They don't like the fact that they have been depending on humanitarian aid," Hadi explained. Hadi emphasized the need to prioritize sustainable recovery efforts. “We'd like to start with income-generating activities, because this is what people have said. Some agriculture projects, if we can, cash-for-work, and any other opportunities. Rubble removal is a lot of work," he said. Despite progress, Hadi acknowledged the challenges in maintaining and scaling up aid delivery. “The reason I don't like to focus on trucks is simply that there are a lot of services that the people of Gaza need that you don't load on trucks: protection, psychosocial support, education itself.” He also added, “We need to make sure right now that we focus on bringing in as much humanitarian aid as we can.” Hadi also highlighted the critical role of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), “It's not easy to replace UNRWA, and we're hoping that they will continue, one way or another, operating. We're talking about education, health, and logistics support. UNRWA employs 13,000 people in Gaza, by the way—it is the second-largest employer in Gaza after the Palestinian authorities. So, you can imagine the critical role of UNRWA,” he said, underscoring the need for continued support for the agency's operations.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support.

Welcome to a special edition of Alternatief.TV. The Netherlands is on Ukrainian side participating in a war between Russia and Ukraine. Our mainstream media is giving a very one-sided pro-Ukrainian and anti-Russian view on the conflict.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.globaldispatches.orgIf Biden declines to run for re-election, the most likely replacement is Vice President Kamala Harris. In this week's episode of To Save Us From Hell we take a deep dive into Kamala Harris' views of the United Nations. We discuss how she's engaged with the UN since becoming Vice President and why there are some subtle but important distinctions between her approach to the UN and that of President Biden.We kick off at the Security Council, where an emergency meeting on Ukraine led to a revealing clash between the Russian and Ukrainian ambassadors. The meeting followed Russian airstrikes on a children's hospital in Kyiv, which Russia denied. Things got particularly heated when the Russian Ambassador, acting in his capacity as President of the Security Council, raised procedural objections against letting Ukraine into the meeting(!).We also discuss an event around the UN that should attract more media attention than it actually does. The High-Level Political Forum is the third-largest annual gathering at the United Nations and serves as an annual check-up on progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals. The centerpiece of this meeting includes over 40 “Voluntary National Reviews” in which countries report and discuss their own progress towards the SDGs. We discuss what's happening at this year's High-Level Political Forum and the merits of peer pressure as an accountability mechanism for the SDGs.Get a discounted subscription to the show at this link: https://www.globaldispatches.org/SaveUs

On 24th November 2023, a conference was convened in the Russian capital of Moscow. Attendees included Russian politicians and an Iranian government representative. The conference was also attended by a number of exiled Afghan politicians: Shukria Barakzai, Fawzia Koofi, Muhammad Muhaqqiq, Ahmad Wali Massoud, and Ahmad Massoud.The event follows months of conflicting statements made by Russian officials about Afghanistan. In particular, Russian Special Envoy to Afghanistan Zamir Kabulov has repeatedly reprimanded the Afghan government and highlighted its lack of ethnopolitical inclusivity. At the same time, Kabulov has stressed the need for engagement with Kabul and praised its counter-narcotics efforts as well as its ongoing campaign against Daesh (ISKP).What is driving Russia's seemingly mixed signals to Kabul?

The National party put out a press release last week reiterating their call to expel the Russian ambassador Georgii Zuev. Foreign affairs minister Nanaia Mahuta says the move to expel Zuev is under active consideration. For Casper's weekly catchup with National MP Dr Shane Reti they spoke about the potential move to expel the ambassador and why the party believes it should happen.
New Zealand is positioning itself to expel its Russian Ambassador, as the illegal invasion of Ukraine ratchets up. Vladimir Putin has repeated his threats of nuclear war and announced plans to hold referendums in occupied territory on becoming part of Russia. The Government here is now actively considering expelling Russian Ambassador Georgy Zuev - a move the Opposition says is long overdue. Political reporter Anneke Smith has more.
More than 1000 protestors have been arrested across Russia following President Vladimir Putin's "mobilisation" announcement. The order for 300,000 more Russian's with military experience to be conscripted has sparked large protests across the country. Reports have been made that some protestors were given draft papers but that has been denied by the Kremlin. The National Party is again calling for the expulsion of the Russian ambassador Georgy Zuev, saying it's long overdue. National Party's Foreign Affairs spokesperson Gerry Brownlee spoke to Susie Ferguson.
