Statement of Portugal at the UNGA72

Extract:

Sexual and Gender-Based Violence: And in this vision of guaranteeing the rights of every person for a lifetime, it is also urgent eradicate all forms of violence. Today, the whole of humanity has a moral and ethical duty: we will not allow thousands of women and be abused or killed. No more femicides! Not one less!

Colombia: For this reason, we strongly support the peace talks that the sister government of the Republic of Colombia is carrying out with the National Liberation Army in our country.

Colombia: We celebrate the Quito Agreement, announced a few days ago, for the "temporary bilateral ceasefire" in Colombia. Thus, step-by-step, parties comply with the proclamation of the Community of Latin American States and Caribbean countries, CELAC, to be a region of peace.
