United Nations Video: Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery - UN Chief's message | United Nations

Video Message by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, on the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade.
ـــــــــــــــــــــــــــ
"The transatlantic trade in enslaved Africans was a crime against humanity that resonates through
history and continues to scar societies. Today, we remember the women, children, and men torn
from their loved ones, forced to work in agonizing conditions, cruelly punished, and deprived of
their dignity and human rights, and we recall their acts of resistance and demands for justice.
For more than four centuries, millions of Africans were kidnapped, trafficked, abused and
dehumanized. This horrific enterprise rested on the destructive lie of white supremacy. And it
saw many colonizers, corporations and institutions amass unimaginable wealth.
For too long, these unthinkable acts have remained unacknowledged, unspoken, and
unaddressed, all as their legacies continue to shape our world. Many still benefit from the odious
profits reaped from chattel slavery. Systemic racism has been embedded into institutions,
cultures, and legal and other systems. Deeply rooted exclusion, racial discrimination and
violence continue to undermine the ability of many people of African descent to thrive and
prosper.
As the theme of this year’s International Day reminds us, acknowledging the horrors of the
transatlantic slave trade is an essential step towards addressing the past, repairing the present,
and building a future of dignity and justice for all. It is imperative to put in place reparatory
justice frameworks that address this terrible history and its legacies. And we must end the evil of
racism for good.
The human dignity of every person stands at the heart of the United Nations. We will always
stand with everyone, everywhere to combat racial discrimination and hate, and to defend the
human rights and dignity of all."

Noon briefing by Farhan Haq, Deputy Spokesperson for the Secretary-General.
Highlights:
- Secretary-General/Geneva
- Bangladesh
- Yemen
- Yemen - Humanitarian
- Occupied Palestinian Territory
- Syria/Brussels Conference
- Lebanon/Security Council
- Ukraine
- Sudan
- Central African Republic
- Resident Coordinator - Equatorial Guinea
BANGLADESH
The Secretary-General wrapped up his visit to Bangladesh on Saturday by talking to the press and saying that, as Bangladesh undergoes a significant transition under the leadership of Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus, he recognizes the people’s hopes for a future of greater democracy, justice, and prosperity. He said that the UN stands ready to assist in fostering peace, national dialogue, trust and healing.
The Secretary-General warned that with the announced cuts in financial assistance, we are facing the dramatic risk of having only 40 per cent in 2025 of the resources available for humanitarian aid in 2024. This would have terrible consequences, starting with the drastic reduction of food rations.
That would be an unmitigated disaster, he said. People would suffer and people would die. More funding is absolutely essential to guarantee the minimum support to the Rohingya population in Bangladesh.
YEMEN
The UN has expressed its concern on Sunday at the launching of multiple strikes on Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen by the United States in recent days. According to the Houthis, the airstrikes resulted in 53 deaths and 101 injuries, reported from Sana’a City, Sa’ada and Al Baydah governorates, including reports of civilian casualties, and led to disruptions in the power supply in nearby localities.
The UN is also concerned about the continued threats by the Houthis to resume their attacks targeting merchant and commercial vessels in the Red Sea, as well as about their reported attacks against military vessels in the area.
The UN calls for utmost restraint and a cessation of all military activities. Any additional escalation could exacerbate regional tensions, fuel cycles of retaliation that may further destabilize Yemen and the region and pose grave risks to the already dire humanitarian situation in the country.
The UN emphasizes that international law, including international humanitarian law as applicable, must be respected by all parties at all times.
The UN underscores that UN Security Council resolution 2768 (2025) related to Houthi attacks against merchant and commercial vessels, must be fully respected.
YEMEN - HUMANITARIAN
Over the last couple of days, the UN Special Envoy, Hans Grundberg, has been in close contact with Yemeni, regional and international stakeholders. He has called for utmost restraint and adherence to international humanitarian law, and he has pushed for a refocus on diplomacy to avoid uncontrollable destabilization in Yemen and in the region. Further contacts are held by his office on numerous levels.
The Envoy further called for support from the international community so that the UN-led mediation efforts can deliver results despite the complexity of the regional dimension of this situation, including the situation in the Red Sea.
