Launch of the Muscat Plan of Action - UN Chief's remarks | United Nations

Remarks by António Guterres, United Nations Secretary-General, on the launch of the Muscat Plan of Action. Guterres stressed that hate speech is a growing threat to peace and security, and called for breaking this cycle through education, support for those targeted, and stronger action by governments and technology companies. Muscat Plan of Action is an initiative aimed at countering hate speech and help prevent genocide and atrocity crimes. The Plan highlights the role of traditional and Indigenous leaders in promoting peace and strengthening social cohesion. It is the result of a collaborative process led by the Sultanate of Oman, the UN Office on Genocide Prevention and the Responsibility to Protect, and the Network for Religious and Traditional Peacemakers, and is co-hosted by the UN Alliance of Civilizations. In his remarks, the Secretary-General said, “the primary responsibility for preventing genocide and other atrocity crimes rests with States. But all of society plays a role.” He emphasized that the Muscat Plan of Action draws on centuries of knowledge and the expertise of traditional and Indigenous leaders. “It reminds us that hate speech is both a warning sign that violence is coming – and a catalyst that speeds its arrival,” Guterres added. The Secretary-General also cautioned that digital platforms “must do far more to protect individuals and groups from harm,” stating he is particularly concerned about the risks faced by children. He said, “States should require tech companies to embed user safety in product design – and rein in misguided algorithms and misuses of artificial intelligence.” Guterres highlighted that the world body is “committed to strengthening the role of traditional and Indigenous leaders in the prevention and resolution of conflicts.” He emphasized that their perspectives “must be front and centre in efforts to combat hate speech and prevent genocide and other atrocity crimes. And this includes faith leaders, youth leaders, and women leaders.” The Secretary-General reiterated, “we must confront hate speech – and uphold human rights and human dignity – before it’s too late.” He said, “States have clear obligations under international law to combat incitement to hatred – and to promote inclusion, respect for diversity, and solidarity,” adding that reining in hate speech does not mean extinguishing freedom of expression. At the same time, freedom of expression must never be an excuse for harmful messages. Guterres said, “I am determined to keep advancing the United Nations Strategy and Plan of Action on Hate Speech – as well as the Global Principles for Information Integrity, our roadmap to a safer, more ethical digital ecosystem.”

Middle East: Advancing Political Solutions - UN Chief's remarks | United Nations

Remarks by António Guterres, United Nations Secretary-General, on advancing political solutions in the Middle East: mediation and dialogue for a lasting peace. Guterres warned that the Middle East is being pulled deeper into crisis, as this week has brought wider attacks and further deterioration, and said, “a brutal price is being paid by the region's people, and it is extending to the wider world, particularly the most vulnerable countries and communities.” Escalation in the Middle East, Guterres said, “reverberates across borders and continents, through political tensions, displacement and rising insecurity, through markets and trade routes, through food and fuel costs.” In Lebanon, he said, “we have witnessed a serious escalation as Israel intensified its operations in Lebanese territory and Hezbollah fired deeper into Israel. Guterres said, “we have seen the killing of civilians, entire communities uprooted and extensive demolition of homes and civilian infrastructure in southern Lebanon, the forced displacement of over a million civilians, the killing of seven UN peacekeepers, including one last week. And through it all, the risk and reality of war escalation.” Gaza, he continued, “still faces profound uncertainty and immense human suffering,” as “violence is on the rise, with civilians killed on a daily basis.” The Secretary-General said, humanitarian operations “remain heavily constrained, “as “basic human needs for clean water, sanitation, food, shelter, healthcare, and more are going unmet. And the Israeli government is declaring its intent to control 70 percent of the Strip. “ In the West Bank, he said, “reports of settler violence now averaging six attacks per day; the demolition of homes; destruction of farms and confiscation of lands; the relentless expansion of illegal Israeli settlements; the ongoing displacement of Palestinians at levels not seen since 1967; the threat of an attempt of annexation that would, like the decades long occupation, have no legal validity; the risk of making a two-state solution impossible when there is no other viable option. And throughout, the presumption of impunity.” Guterres said, “civilians and civilian infrastructure have come under attack in multiple countries,” and stressed that “all threats to national sovereignty and territorial integrity are violations to international law.” At the same time, he said, “restrictions on navigational rights and freedoms in and around the Strait of Hormuz are causing hardship and instability across the world, driving up energy prices and disrupting supply chains, making fertilisers more costly and hunger more prevalent, pushing up inflation and piling on debt, and in fragile states, raising the risk of fresh conflicts.” Even in the best-case scenario, the Secretary-General said, “these shocks will be felt for many months, with developing countries bearing the heaviest impact,” and called on all parties “to honour the ceasefire and redouble efforts to reach a lasting agreement.”
