Pedro Sánchez’ speech at the United Nations (16 mins): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpIuu1_8WxY Of course, there are people who mistrust and dislike him (yet for every human you find a hater), but I very much appreciate Sánchez—and I much more hope that Spaniards appreciate him, or keep appreciating him. He seems to be one of few leaders the world has right now who speaks out and acts against some of the greatest injustices. #spain #unitednations #law

Israel Blocking Hundreds of Wheelchairs for Injured Children From Entering Gaza More than 11,000 children have severe life-changing injuries, including thousands who have had limbs amputated as a result of #Israel’s assault on Gaza. https://www.commondreams.org/news/israel-blocking-wheelchairs September 21, 2026 According to the report, JHCO submitted an application in February 2025 for the wheelchairs to be included in an aid convoy headed to #Gaza, where more than 11,000 kids have been left with “severe, life-changing injuries, including permanent disabilities that require long-term care and rehabilitation,” according to the #UnitedNations #Children’s Fund (#UNICEF). That application was denied by #C OGAT, the #Israeli agency responsible for aid coordination, because “#medical equipment and medicines were not approved for inclusion in that convoy.” The application has been marked as “pending” for the last 19 months, meaning that a new request cannot be sent. #IsraelCriminalState#News #Politics #Palestine

Writing in the FT, the presidents of Brazil, Kenya & the European Council and prime minister of Canada, argue that we need to revive & expand the politics of multilateralism in the face of increased polarisation & fragmentation. As the UN moves towards a new Secretary General, this may be a call for a new agenda of cooperation at the UN, but equally is also an expansion of Mark Carney's call for a new international politics. The Q. is can this move beyond rhetoric? #politics #UnitedNations

Genocide Convention (1948): Adopted by the United Nations in 1948 after the Holocaust, the Genocide Convention obligates states to prevent and punish genocide wherever it occurs. The United States signed the treaty early but did not ratify it until 1988, reflecting decades of debate over sovereignty and domestic legal enforcement. It remains a cornerstone of modern international criminal and human rights law. #unitednations #peace #humanrights #loveyourenemies
