The meeting is suspended to hear from the High Rep for Disarmament Affairs @INakamitsu on "Our Common Agenda" and how it relates to the #SpaceThreatsOEWG
Read the "Our Common Agenda" report by the UNSG here: un.org/en/content/com…
A key message from the report is that governance and regulatory regimes require updating in line with this new era of space activity to preserve outer space as a global common.

“#Tigray and the people of Tigray fighting for their are aligned with nobody or for nobody. They are fighting for their own survival and dignity against forces who want them exterminated and vanquished.”, says President of Tigray, Debretsion Gebremichael in an open letter to 1/7
the current President of the #UN Security Council, #France (@franceonu ), and #UNSG @antonioguterres. The letter dated Sept 7, 2022 is the second after the one written on Aug 23, a day before the resumption of the war. It contains elements of cessation of hostilities 2/7
and #peace process citing the first letter how previous processes were “setup to fail”.
If and what the UN’s response to the Aug 23 letter is unknown. Immediate and unconditional lifting of blockade and resumption of services, status quo ante, 3/7

2⃣0⃣2⃣2⃣ has so far been a turbulent year for #peacemaking and #peacemediation. A 🧵 to capture some trends & themes, drawing on work of colleagues @CrisisGroup
1/#Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine has major repercussions on #peacemaking: undermines basic norms, increases polarization, poses “the gravest threat to international peace and security in decades”, as @CrisisGroup president & CEO @EroComfort wrote crisisgroup.org/global/watch-l…
2/@atwoodr #HoldYourFire podcast captures the global fallout of the war in Ukraine, including on peace talks crisisgroup.org/hold-your-fire…
Good to see @SandraBreka make a full-throated defence of EU style multilateralism @UN @ProSyn, though @antonioguterres and advisers might not put it this way. There are grumblings around UNHQ that "Our Common Agenda" is "too European" its priorities. [1/5]

But if @PoliticoRyan is right and Angela Merkel will play a leading role in "Our Common Agenda" follow-up, it is going to be hard to deny that the EU and its vision of multilateralism are pretty central to the project. [2/5] politico.com/newsletters/gl…
We have certainly seen @antonioguterres drawing closer to the EU in recent years, as symbolised by his meeting with the EU Council last summer (Cc. @FamaNelMondo @CrisisGroup). [3/5] crisisgroup.org/europe-central…
Thread: What do we know so far about the #war on #Tigray in #Ethiopia, which has been running for nearly 2 months now? In this thread I will sum up some of the key developments.
First, the so-called “law and order” operation, which @PMAbiyAhmed declared completed one month ago, has not yet reached its basic objectives, and it is doubtful that it ever will. Hence, the war in #Tigray will continue indefinitely, or until a political settlement is reached.
Lots of interesting online resources on #peacemediation have recently popped up. Here’s a compilation of interactive online platforms, which should be useful for #peacemediation practitioners and researchers alike👇
1/UN Peacemaker, the platform of platforms managed by the @UNDPPA Mediation Support Unit, with lots of useful resources, guidance documents, UN texts etc👉peacemaker.un.org @WhitfieldTeresa @AsifRKhanUN
2/Language of Peace, a database of peace agrement texts developed by @Cambridge_Uni and @UNDPPA, searchable by issue, country, conflict type etc👉languageofpeace.org/#/
Amb. #Nebenzia says Russia will proceed from concrete #humanitarian needs of Syrian population. #UNSG latest report is clear “pressing need to prepare for COVID-19...has starkly highlighted the gap left by the removal of Yaroubiya authorisation” 1/3
THREAD-It took me a few days to reflect on what I think of the zero draft of #globalcompactmigration; having been so close to the process and substance for the last few months, my first thought is that there is a lot to take in! And that's good: we need ambition (1) #formigration
And that was not a given;many commentators say that they are 'surprised not to be disappointed'-as they usually are.Stakes are high too,with US withdrawal, Hungary on the verge and may European states concerned that #UNSG report unbalanced #formigration #globalcompactmigration(2)
There is a lot to like in 22 (!) objectives:concrete proposals on labour and skills,like #Globaskillspartnership promoted by @m_clem and on access to #socialprotection & portability of #socialsecurity;on vulnerability and missing migrants #formigration #globalcompactmigration (3)
