This is what should happen in Cuba: protests of exiles against Díaz-Canel in New York
21 Sept 2023
|
Voz de América
|
Spanish
| Human Rights
Exiles, political prisoners, and second-generation Cuban-Americans gathered in New York to protest against Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel's presence at the UN General Assembly. Protesters demanded freedom for political prisoners and expressed that such a demonstration would result in imprisonment in Cuba. The protest is one of several during the high-level week of the General Assembly, with other nationalities also voicing their concerns. Díaz-Canel, who is attending the Assembly as the pro tempore president of the G77, has been met with opposition from the Cuban exile community, who reject his representation of their country. The Cuban government dismisses the exile and opposition as mercenaries of the US, and denies the existence of over 1,000 political prisoners as reported by the Spain-based NGO Prisoners Defenders.

| Debt Crisis
As Cop29 negotiations continue in Azerbaijan, African delegates and activists emphasize the need for urgent action on climate adaptation and financing. Greenpeace Africa and the Africa Group of Negotiators are advocating for accountability and increased support for Africa's climate needs. Despite slow progress, there is optimism for a last-minute deal, with calls for developed countries to address the debt crisis and support emission reductions. The G20's commitments are seen as positive, but more substantial action is needed to bridge the gap between pledges and actual needs. African negotiators remain hopeful for a people-centered outcome that empowers the continent.

The issue of loss and damage at COP26: Progress and frustrations

English
| International Relations
The COP26 summit concluded in Glasgow with the Glasgow Climate Pact, which aimed to reinforce action and finalize the Paris Agreement rulebook. A major point of contention was the issue of 'Loss and Damage', with developing countries pushing for dedicated funds for climate refugees, which was ultimately blocked by the US and EU. The summit recognized the need to address loss and damage but postponed decisions on finance. Some progress was made, including the establishment of a Glasgow Dialogue and the Scottish Government's pledge of $2m for loss and damage, along with $3m from philanthropies. The issue will be a focal point at the next COP27.

| Climate Finance
Seven days into the Bonn climate talks, negotiators have yet to agree on an agenda, raising concerns about the effectiveness of the discussions. Key issues include the split between developed and developing countries over the prominence of climate finance on the agenda. Developing nations, led by Bolivia and supported by countries like Venezuela and Saudi Arabia, demand urgent financial support from developed countries. In contrast, developed nations, including the EU, USA, and UK, argue that finance is already being discussed in other forums. The deadlock threatens to undermine progress at the upcoming COP28 summit.

Climate negotiators in Egypt concluded the COP27 summit with a historic agreement to establish a 'loss and damage' fund to aid vulnerable countries affected by climate change. The deal, seen as a victory for poorer nations, also reaffirmed the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius but did not introduce new targets for reducing fossil fuel use or greenhouse gas emissions. The summit faced challenges, including extended negotiations and criticism of Egypt's handling of the talks. Key figures such as Sameh Shoukry and Sherry Rehman highlighted the significance of the agreement, while advocacy groups expressed concerns over the influence of the fossil fuel industry.
