New york: UN Secretary-General Ant³nio Guterres has issued a stark warning about the erosion of peace foundations due to impunity, inequality, and indifference. Speaking at the opening of the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, Guterres highlighted the dire consequences of cutting financial support for humanitarian aid, describing it as a chaotic move that amounts to a death sentence for many and a theft of the future for countless others.

According to National Iraqi News Agency, Guterres pointed out that many crises continue unchecked while impunity prevails. He emphasized that sovereign countries are being invaded, hunger is being weaponized, truth is being suppressed, and cities are being bombed, leaving a trail of destruction. Guterres also expressed concern over a global phenomenon where children behave as if rules do not apply to them and people are treated as less than human.

Guterres’s remarks underscore the urgent need for international cooperation and accountability to address these pressing issues and to restore the foundations of peace worldwide.
