Unicef: progressi e carenze per un mondo a misura di bambino 12/11/2007 Elenca i "progressi concreti" ma non dimentica le "carenze da colmare" l'ultimo Rapporto statistico dell'Unicef presentato ieri alla vigilia della riunione plenaria dell'Assemblea Generale dell'Onu che da oggi farà il punto sulle raccomandazioni contenute nel documento finale della Sessione Speciale ONU sull'infanzia del 2002 su "Un mondo a misura di bambino". Nonostante nei Paesi in via di sviluppo anche solo la mancanza di servizi igienici basilari e di acqua potabile contribuisca ogni anno alla morte di 1,5 milioni di bambini, nel 2006 il numero dei bambini morti prima dei 5 anni per malattie, fame e guerre è sceso per la prima volta al di sotto dei 10 milioni. "Questo è un momento storico" - ha affermato il Direttore generale dell'Unicef, Ann Veneman. "Sopravvivono più bambini oggi che mai prima in passato. Dobbiamo far leva su questo successo per accelerare il raggiungimento degli Obiettivi di Sviluppo del Millennio" - ha aggiunto.

Iraq: l'Italia voti all'Onu contro la proroga dell'occupazione 12/07/2007 Nei prossimi giorni gli Stati Uniti sottoporranno al Consiglio di Sicurezza dell'Onu, di cui l'Italia è attualmente membro, una proposta di risoluzione che prevede una ulteriore estensione del mandato della "Forza multinazionale" in Iraq. L'associazione "Un ponte per..." ha inviato una lettera aperta al Ministro degli Affari Esteri Massimo D'Alema e lanciato una petizione online per chiedere che l'Italia voti contro la proroga dell'occupazione in Iraq. "Una grande maggioranza di iracheni richiede il completo ritiro delle truppe al più presto. Il premier Al Maliki si prepara invece, sotto pressione statunitense, ed in spregio al parlamento, a richiedere la estensione" - scrive l'associazione. "Sarebbe grave se in presenza di questa situazione il Consiglio di Sicurezza rinnovasse il mandato alla "Forza multinazionale". Sarebbe altrettanto grave se l'Italia, che ha ritirato le proprie truppe riconoscendo la illegalità della guerra all'Iraq, approvasse una tale risoluzione".

Secondo l'Onu, 44mila persone sono già state espulse dalle zona diamantifere dell’Angola da gennaio 2007, e circa 400mila cittadini congolesi si trovano tuttora nel nord dell’Angola.
