Iraq
Turning to Baghdad, the Secretary-General’s Special Representative in Iraq, Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, said over the weekend on Twitter that she was deeply saddened by the senseless loss of life in Iraq and added that this must stop.
She said she was shocked at vandalism and intimidation of some TV studios by masked gunmen, which she called entirely unacceptable. She said that Government efforts must be put in place to protect journalists.
The Special Representative also called on all parties to pause and reflect. Those responsible for violence should be held to account, she added.
Haiti
The peacekeeping mission in Haiti has reiterated its deep concern about the impact of the political crisis on the population.
They said they are attentive to the demands of different sectors of society and stand ready to support peaceful solutions, which only Haitian actors can devise, to resolve the current situation and alleviate the suffering of the population.
The mission encourages all state actors and citizens to refrain from violence, to ensure the normal functioning of schools, hospitals and emergency services, and to allow humanitarian actors to assist those most vulnerable.
