Trip Announcement, Haavisto & other topics - Daily Press Briefing (19 June 2026) | United Nations

2026-06-19T21:04:12.662+02:00

Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: - Secretary-General/Trip Announcement - Haavisto - Sudan - Lebanon/Israel - Occupied Palestinian Territory - Democratic Republic of the Congo - Kosovo - Peacebuilding Week - World Refugee Day - International Day of Yoga - International Day of the Celebration of the Solstice SECRETARY-GENERAL/TRIP ANNOUNCEMENT The Secretary-General will arrive in London on Monday, where he will attend a series of events taking place during the London Climate Action Week. He will deliver a special address on climate and energy on Tuesday morning, outlining how renewable energy offers the clearest route to energy security, affordability and resilience. The Secretary-General is expected to underscore that it is clear that our world is facing a climate crisis and an energy crisis, which, on the surface, may seem separate, but share the same destructive force: fossil fuels. During his visit to London, the Secretary-General will participate in other events, including the Global Energy and Electrification Summit and the Local Leaders Summit, as well as the Climate and Development Finance Forum 2026. The Secretary-General will also attend a Super Pollutants reception, in the presence of His Majesty King Charles III. While in London, the Secretary-General will hold a bilateral meeting with the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Yvette Cooper. He will also meet with leaders attending the London Climate Action Week. The Secretary-General is expected back in New York on 24 June. HAAVISTO The Personal Envoy for Sudan, Pekka Haavisto, spoke with the Commander-in-Chief of the Rapid Support Forces, General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hemedti, earlier today. The Personal Envoy underscored the need to urgently de-escalate the situation in the El Obeid area and avoid any actions that may further worsen the already-dire humanitarian situation and put civilian lives at risk. He emphasized that the focus of the parties to the conflict should turn towards advancing dialogue to end the war.    They also discussed the latest political developments, including the recent Quintet-facilitated engagements with Sudanese civilian stakeholders in Addis Ababa. The Personal Envoy is also engaging Member State partners with influence over the conflict parties to encourage their commitment to genuine dialogue and convey as a matter of urgency that an attack on El Obeid must be avoided. We reiterate the call made by the Secretary-General in his statement yesterday for restraint from all parties in the El Obeid area and to take all necessary measures to respect and protect civilians. We must not allow the horrors of El Fasher to be repeated in El Obeid. SUDAN We have seen further reports of drone attacks overnight. For now, the area remains accessible. OCHA says it and its humanitarian partners are focusing on moving food and other supplies into the city, while preparing for the potential movement of large numbers of people of the immediate area. And for those who have been asking about our presence in El Obeid, I can tell you that we do not have a permanent presence in the city. However, despite access constraints, our humanitarian partners are still working on the ground, staying and delivering with WFP and others, to move more assistance there to help residents is an area that hosts more than 100,000 displaced people.

Libya: Warning of Rising Misinformation & Hate Speech Targeting Migrants | United Nations

2026-06-19T16:04:23.561+02:00

Special Representative for Libya Hanna Serwaa Tetteh warned against a “growing wave of misinformation, disinformation, hate speech and incitement” targeting refugees, migrants, humanitarian actors, and UN personnel, and stressed that the UN “is not in the business of resettling migrants” in Libya. Addressing the Security Council, Tetteh said, “a growing wave of misinformation, disinformation, hate speech and incitement targeting refugees, migrants, humanitarian actors and UN agencies and personnel in Libya, including Libyan nationals.” She continued, “False and misleading claims – particularly allegations of UN plans to settle migrants or refugees in Libya – have contributed to a climate of hostility, threats, and violence against humanitarian workers and UN personnel, and have already provoked violence against UN premises, underscoring the real dangers posed by disinformation. Migration is a legitimate public concern but must be addressed on the basis of facts, not fear, and through responsible public discourse rather than inflammatory, false and provocative narratives. Let me use this opportunity to state clearly that the UN in Libya is not in the business of resettling migrants into Libya.” She stressed, “The country’s challenges cannot be addressed through fabrications and scapegoating. They require responsible leadership, unified functioning and effective institutions to restore public trust. Advancing the UNSMIL-facilitated roadmap is therefore not merely a political imperative; it is one viable path to overcoming institutional fragmentation and building a more stable and secure future for all Libyans.” She also said, “Libya’s economic trajectory continues to pose a significant threat to its stability and the wellbeing of its citizens. Rising prices and the erosion of purchasing power increasingly strain households and impact the provisions of social services across the country.” She added, “Higher global oil and gas prices have boosted revenues and provided short-term relief, but this should not obscure structural vulnerabilities. Fuel shortages across Greater Tripoli and other cities particularly in the south in late April and May, exposed persisting weaknesses in the management of the subsidy regime. The primary driver of fuel shortages remains entrenched networks smuggling subsidised refined petroleum products out of the country to the disadvantage of the Libyan consumer.” She stressed that in Tripoli, public mobilisation against migration-related issues intensified this month due to “deliberate misinformation” on various media platforms. She continued, “On 4 June, hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside the UNHCR and UNSMIL buildings, demonstrating against alleged plans to settle migrants in Libya. At UNHCR, demonstrators blocked access to the premises with earth barriers. At UNSMIL, protesters breached the perimeter, damaged the entrance gates, dumped sand and debris, and threw stones at UN security personnel.” She also emphasized that “if Libyan political actors and institutions are unable to work together to create the political and security conditions for holding elections and completing the remaining legal and institutional steps within a reasonable timeframe, continued reliance on this process alone will not be sufficient to deliver the Libyan people’s right to have a government of their choice which would have democratic legitimacy.” Taher M. El-Sonni, Permanent Representative of Libya to the United Nations, stated, “We stress to everyone that Libya will not be a place for the resettlement of immigrants. Libya will never be country for the resettlement of immigrants in any form.”

Women, Peace & Security: UN Women Warns Female Voices Vanishing From Peace Talks | United Nations

2026-06-18T15:04:07.640+02:00

“Women are disappearing from peace and mediation processes. I am sure this is something we will all come to regret,” UN Women Executive Director told the Security Council. Briefing the Council during an open debate on women, peace and security (WPS) titled “Peace is decided with women: Emerging from conflict by enhancing their participation,” Sima Sami Bahous, Executive Director of UN Women, said, “When we pursue peace without women’s voices—without women at the table, leading alongside men—our efforts become compromised, fragile, and ultimately not serious.” She also noted that the UN led a ‘mere’ three peace processes last year, comparing to 14 peace processes 15 years ago. “The path to genuine gender equality in the pursuit of peace matters far less when the UN’s role is increasingly being sidelined, when this multilateral system is under immense pressure,” Bahous said. Two women civil society representatives also briefed the Council. Leymah Gbowee, Nobel Peace Laureate said, “Women are not victims to be protected alone. They are leaders, mediators, negotiators and architects of peace.” Kaavya Asoka, Executive Director of NGO Working Group on Women, Peace and Security presented findings of a survey carried by the coalition among women’s rights activists. According to the findings, the main barriers for women’s rights activists in their participation are unbridled militarization and conflict; flagrant violations of international law; deeply rooted patriarchal norms in their societies, laws and institutions; male-dominated political structures that exclude women from peacemaking; unprecedented attacks on women’s rights, including sexual and gender-based violence and retaliation against women for participating in public and political life; lack of funding; and little political will or accountability for those perpetuating their exclusion. “In other words, they reinforced what women civil society have been telling you for 25 years,” Asoka said. Colombian Minister of Foreign Affairs Rosa Yolanda Villavicencio chaired the meeting, which is a signature event of Colombia’s June Council presidency. She said, “Colombia presides today drawing on the experience of a country that has learned a fundamental lesson: sustainable peace is not possible without the full, effective, meaningful and safe participation of women, young women, adolescents and girls.” She added, “Colombia urges States to develop and implement national action plans and participatory peace processes. Because nothing about us, without us. Nothing without us when it concerns our peace, our security and our rights.” Speaking to reporters before the Council’s debate she urged all States “to fully implement Resolution 1325 and subsequent Security Council resolutions on Women, Peace and Security through concrete and verifiable actions.”

Yemen: Conflict is unresolved - Security Council Briefing | United Nations

2026-06-17T07:04:20.729+02:00

“Yemen's conflict is unresolved, not over,” UN Special Envoy Hans Grundberg told the Security Council. Briefing the Security Council Grundberg warned that despite a relative calm holding since a 2022 truce, the country remains mired in an intractable crisis with deepening economic and humanitarian pressures. Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Yemen also said the recent regional conflict had increased strain on the Yemeni economy through the country's import dependence and geopolitical proximity, driving up the cost of food and fuel and amplifying inflationary pressures. “In recent weeks, there have been protests in Aden and other governorates over electricity shortages amid the summer heat,” he said. On a rare diplomatic breakthrough, Grundberg said the parties had agreed last month to release over 1,600 conflict-related detainees following 14 weeks of UN-facilitated negotiations in Amman — the largest such release operation in the history of the conflict. “Trust was low; negotiations stalled multiple times. It required courage and compromise,” he said, urging swift implementation with support from the International Committee of the Red Cross.
