Play Video: Bangladesh, Myanmar, Geneva & other topics - Daily Press Briefing (14 March 2025) | United Nations

Noon Briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: - Secretary-General/Bangladesh - Myanmar - Trip Announcement / Geneva - Trip Announcement / Brussels - Democratic Republic of the Congo - Central African Republic - Occupied Palestinian Territory - Syria - Global Trade 2025 - Coffee Prices - Islamophobia - Commission on the Status of Women SECRETARY-GENERAL/BANGLADESH The Secretary-General today was in Cox’s Bazaar, Bangladesh, as part of his Ramadan solidarity visit with Rohingya refugees and their Bangladeshi host communities. The Secretary-General had the chance to meet with refugees, many of them young men and women, who told him about their experiences and concerns. He spoke to children who were grateful to be able to go to school in the camps, but missed their homes in Myanmar. And he met young people who still have hope to return to their homeland but are also worried about the impending funding cuts which would dramatically reduce their monthly food rations (from $12.50 to $6 per month). The Secretary-General also visited a jute center, where he had a chance to hear from women who are trying to build a livelihood inside the camps. The Secretary-General assured every one of the people he met that he would do everything he can to stop the funding cuts, and he apologized to them because the UN and the international community have not been able to stop the conflict in Myanmar. He later had a press encounter in which he said that he had heard two clear messages: first, Rohingyas want to go back to Myanmar; and second, they want better conditions in the camps. And at sunset, he shared an Iftar with some 60,000 refugees. He told them that sharing an Iftar with them is a symbol of his deep respect for their religion and their culture. He also said that we are facing a deep humanitarian crisis with the announced funding cuts, and he lamented that as a result, many people will suffer, and some people might die. “My voice will not end until the international community understands that they have the obligation to invest now in the Rohingya refugees,” he said. Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus was also present at the Iftar, and they met separately earlier in the day.  MYANMAR The World Food Programme today warned that more than one million people in Myanmar will be cut off from its food assistance starting in April – due to critical funding shortfalls. WFP says these cuts come just as increased conflict, displacement and access restrictions are already sharply driving up food aid needs. Without immediate new funding WFP will only be able to assist 35,000 of the most vulnerable people, including children under the age of five, pregnant and breastfeeding women, and people living with disabilities. The cuts will also impact almost 100,000 internally displaced people in central Rakhine who will have no access to food without WFP assistance, including Rohingya communities in camps. WFP urgently needs US$ 60 million to maintain its life-saving food assistance to the people of Myanmar this year. Optional - A staggering 15.2 million people are unable to meet their minimum daily food needs in Myanmar, according to the Myanmar Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan; this is up from 13.3 million last year. Of these, according to the plan, some 2.3 million people are facing emergency levels of hunger. Even with regular support, these families who rely solely on WFP food assistance, are already reporting skipping meals, selling properties or going into debt just to survive. TRIP ANNOUNCEMENT / GENEVA On Sunday, the Secretary-General will arrive in Geneva, Switzerland, where, as we announced a few days ago, he is convening the two Cypriot leaders and the Guarantor Powers of Greece, Türkiye and the United Kingdom for an informal meeting on Cyprus at the United Nations Office in Geneva. The meeting will take place from 17 to 18 March and is being held in the context of the Secretary-General’s good offices efforts on the Cyprus issue and as agreed with the two leaders on 15 October 2024. The informal meeting will provide an opportunity for a meaningful discussion on the way forward on the Cyprus issue. The United Nations remains committed to supporting the Cypriot leaders and all Cypriots.

Noon Briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: Secretary-General Syria Treaty on state border between the Kyrgyz Republic and the Republic of Tajikistan Haiti Sudan/Security Council Sudan / Humanitarian Occupied Palestinian Territory Yemen Bosnia and Herzegovina Ethiopia Measles / European Region Journalism Fellowship SECRETARY-GENERAL The Secretary-General just arrived in Dhaka, Bangladesh, to start off his Ramadan solidarity visit. Tomorrow, he will meet with the Chief Adviser of the government, Muhammad Yunus and travel with him to Cox’s Bazaar. They will meet there with Rohingya refugees who have been forcibly displaced from their homes in Myanmar and also, they will meet  with the host Bangladeshi communities who have been so generous in hosting them. The Secretary-General will also share an Iftar with the refugees, and he will also issue a call to the international community to step up their humanitarian assistance for these men, women and children who have already suffered so much. And on Saturday in Dhaka, the Secretary-General will meet with youth and representatives from civil society. He will also have a joint press conference with the Foreign Adviser, Touhid Hossain.  SYRIA Following the Constitutional Declaration issued by the Caretaker Authorities in Syria, the Special Envoy for Syria, Geir Pedersen, said he welcomes moves toward restoring the rule of law and notes that this development potentially fills an important legal vacuum.  The Special Envoy hopes the declaration can be a solid legal framework for a genuinely credible and inclusive political transition. Proper implementation will be key, he said, along with continued efforts to ensure transitional governance in an orderly manner. In a statement, the Secretary-General said that 14 years have now passed since the Syrian people stood up in peaceful protest for their universal rights and freedoms, only to be met with brutal repression.  Mr. Guterres added that what began as a call for peaceful change turned into one of the world’s most devastating conflicts, with an incalculable human cost.  The Secretary-General spoke about the millions of men, women and children who were displaced and subjected to unimaginable hardship. Yet, the Syrian people never wavered in their steadfast and courageous calls for freedom, for dignity, and for a just future.            Since 8 December, however, we saw renewed hope that Syrians can chart a different course and the chance to rebuild, the chance to reconcile, and the chance to create a nation where they can all live peacefully and in dignity.  The Secretary-General said nothing can justify the killing of civilians, that we have been reporting in recent days. He stressed that all violence must stop, and there must be a credible, an independent, an impartial investigation of violations and those responsible must be held to account.  He added that the caretaker authorities have repeatedly committed to building a new Syria based on inclusive and credible foundations for all Syrians. Now is the time for action, he said. He concluded by reiterating that we stand ready to work alongside the Syrians and support an inclusive political transition and we stand with the Syrian people towards the promise of a better Syria – for all Syrians.   TREATY ON STATE BORDER BETWEEN THE KYRGYZ REPUBLIC AND THE REPUBLIC OF TAJIKISTAN The Secretary-General warmly welcomes the signing of the Treaty on the State Border by the Presidents of the Kyrgyz Republic and the Republic of Tajikistan, and that took place today in Bishkek. He congratulates the two countries on this historic achievement and commends their leadership, their determination and their political will to bring the decades-long negotiation process to a successful conclusion. The Secretary-General looks forward to a sustained constructive engagement between the two countries towards fostering mutual trust, good-neighbourly relations and a peaceful future for their people and the broader region.  Full Highlights: https://www.un.org/sg/en/content/noon-briefing-highlight?date%5Bvalue%5D%5Bdate%5D=13%20March%202025

Play Video: Humanitarian worker: Overstretched and Under-resourced - Press Conference | United Nations

Press Conference by Tom Fletcher, Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, on -------------------------------------------- UN Emergency Relief Coordinator Tom Fletcher said, “The pace and the scale of the funding cuts that we've faced are, of course, a seismic shock” to the humanitarian sector. Addressing the press, Fletcher said, “We were already overstretched, under-resourced, and literally under attack with last year being the deadliest year on record to be a humanitarian worker. But of course, it's far tougher for the people who we serve. 300 million plus right now need humanitarian support.” He stressed, “Many will die because that aid is drying up. And across the humanitarian community, programs are being stopped right now. Staff are being let go right now; I think 10 percent of NGO colleagues were laid off in the course of February. And across the UN family and our partners, we're making tough choices day to day about which lives we will have to prioritize, which lives we have to try to save. And so, I think this period ahead, the weeks actually ahead will define how we emerge as a humanitarian movement from this sustained challenge.” He said, “I'll receive at the end of this week, on Friday, detailed plans from all of our humanitarian coordinators. So, the lead humanitarian official in each of our crisis countries, drawn together by their humanitarian country team across agencies and NGOs on how they will change their strategies to make this new challenge.” He continued, “But behind that regrouping, we'll also have to renew what we do as well. We'll have to build fresh arguments, fresh allies for our work. We'll have to find new sources of funding. We'll have to fight back. We'll have to reimagine what we do, and - this is an important point and easy thing to say, much harder to actually deliver - we will have to shift power towards our humanitarian leaders in country and towards the people that we serve, the communities that we work with on the frontlines of the humanitarian crisis.” He added, “So, we need a humanitarian decade, we'll have to win afresh that argument for humanitarian and international solidarity. And that is a cause which I believe is mightier than year to year fluctuations and political changes.” He highlighted, “We have been reliant in recent years – over reliant - on US funding. Almost half of our appeals have been funded by the American taxpayers. And it is important to recognize that we shouldn't ever take that for granted. Particularly, in a period of economic difficulty and in a period when, when many governments are in retreat from the world.” Answering a question, he said, “I can't put a precise number on what the US cuts, the difference that would make. But what I can say is that over years and decades now, the US has been a humanitarian superpower, and the US funding has saved hundreds of millions of lives. And so, I hope that over time, we can make the case afresh for why that work is so important, and that we can ensure that funding is resumed so we can carry on saving that number of lives.”
