Remarks by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, at the opening of the High-Level Segment of the sixteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP 16) in Cali, Colombia. ----------------------- UN Secretary-General António Guterres said, “Nature is life. And yet we are waging a war against it. A war where there can be no winner.” Addressing the high-level segment of the 16th meeting of the Conference of Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP16) today (29 Oct) in Cali, Colombia warned that no country is immune to the devastation inflicted by climate change, biodiversity loss, land degradation and pollution, adding that these environmental crises are intertwined, they know no borders. He said, “The drivers of this destruction are embedded in outdated economic models, fueling unsustainable production and consumption patterns. They are multiplied by inequalities – in wealth and power. And with each passing day, we are edging closer to tipping points that could fuel further hunger, displacement, and armed conflicts. We have already altered 75 percent of the Earth's land surface and 66 percent of its ocean environments.” He also said, “Making peace with nature is the defining task of the 21st century. That is the spirit of today's Declaration of the World Coalition for Peace with Nature: A call for action to enhance national and international efforts towards a balanced and harmonious relationship with nature.” The Secretary-General noted that when the Framework was adopted two years ago in Montreal, the world made bold commitments to living in harmony with nature by mid-century. He stressed that we must now turn these promises into acts. He concluded, “We can – and we must – save the ecosystems that sustain us and keep our climate goals within reach. The alternative is unthinkable.”

Briefing by Tor Wennesland, Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, on the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question. ---------------------------------------- The United Nations Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process Tor Wennesland today (29 Oct) told the Security Council that the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) is mandated by the General Assembly, and stressed that “unilateral steps such as legislation which seeks to not only undermine UN mandate work but threaten to further set back a political resolution to the conflict on the basis of UN resolutions and international law must be avoided.” Briefing the Council after visiting the Gaza Strip last week, Wennesland said, “we are witnessing not only a horrific humanitarian nightmare, but a rapidly accelerating and unravelling of the prospects for a sustainable resolution to this conflict.” He said, “every effort by all of us must be made to de-escalate the situation and establish a different trajectory towards greater peace and stability in the region.” Wennesland reiterated his call for a cease fire and said, “we need the hostages released from Gaza now.” He urged all parties “to engage constructively in urgent diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the situation and avoid an endless spiral of death and destruction.” Wennesland unequivocally condemned the widespread killing and injury of civilians in Gaza, the endless displacement of the population in Gaza and shocking mistreatment of detainees. And he also condemned the continued holding of hostages and the firing of rockets toward Israeli population centres, which has continued this month.

BIODIVERISTY This morning, the Secretary-General is in Cali, in Colombia, where he is attending the high-level segment of the 16th meeting of the Conference of Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP16). In his remarks, he highlighted that nature is life, and yet we are waging a war against it, a war where there can be no winner. He is in fact about to deliver those remarks and he is expected to warn that no country, rich or poor, is immune to the devastation inflicted by climate change, biodiversity loss, land degradation and pollution, adding that these environmental crises are intertwined, they know no borders. The Secretary-General noted that when the Framework was adopted two years ago in Montreal, the world made bold commitments to living in harmony with nature by mid-century. He said that we must now turn these promises into acts. This morning, he had a series of bilaterals. He met with Leslie Voltaire, the President of the Transitional Presidential Council of Haiti. They agreed on the need to expedite the political transition towards holding elections. In the meeting, the Secretary-General appealed to Haitian stakeholders to set aside their differences and work together for Haiti’s peace and security. This afternoon, the Secretary-General will engage in discussions with indigenous people and local communities, as well as representatives of civil society, including youth and women. And I think he just met with Gustavo Petro, the President of Colombia.  Tomorrow, on the sidelines he will speak at an event on plastic pollution organized by the UN Environment Programme. He will also speak to journalists at a press conference before heading out of Cali and coming back to New York. UNRWA You saw that last night we issued a statement in the Secretary-General’s name in which he expressed his deep concern at the adoption yesterday by the Israeli Knesset of two laws concerning the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, better known to all of us as UNRWA, and the laws which, if implemented, would likely prevent UNRWA from continuing its essential work in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, as mandated by the General Assembly of these United Nations. The Secretary-General emphasized that UNRWA is the principal means by which essential assistance is supplied to Palestine refugees in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. There is no alternative to UNRWA. He calls on Israel to act consistently with its obligations under the Charter of the UN and its other obligations under international law, including international humanitarian law and those concerning the privileges and immunities of the United Nations. National legislation cannot alter those obligations. He is bringing this matter to the attention of the General Assembly and will keep the Assembly closely informed on the situation as it develops.  Philippe Lazzarini, the Commissioner General of UNRWA, added that these bills will only deepen the suffering of Palestinians, especially in Gaza, where people have been going through more than a year of sheer hell. He said that these bills increase the suffering of the Palestinians and are nothing less than collective punishment. Mr. Lazzarini also sent a letter to the President of the General Assembly to express those concerns in detail.
