Press statement by António Guterres, UN Secretary-General, on the Black Sea Initiative.

Addressing reporters today (17 May), the UN Secretary-General, António Guterres, welcomed the confirmation by the Russian Federation to continue its participation in the Black Sea Initiative for another 60 days.

“The continuation is good news for the world,” stressed Guterres.

He continued, “Outstanding issues remain. But representatives of Russia, Ukraine, Türkiye, and the United Nations will keep discussing them. I hope we will reach a comprehensive agreement to improve, expand and extend the Initiative – as I proposed in a recent letter to the Presidents of the three countries.”

The UN chief conveyed his appreciation to all those taking part in the negotiations in a spirit of constructive engagement.

He expressed his gratitude to President Erdoğan and the Government of Türkiye for their efforts – working in permanent coordination with the United Nations.

“The importance of the Black Sea Initiative – and the parallel Memorandum of Understanding between the UN and the Russian Federation – is clear,” Guterres said.

He stated, “These agreements matter for global food security. Ukrainian and Russian products feed the world.”

According to the UN Secretary-General, more than 30 million tons of food have been exported under the Black Sea Initiative.

He said, “Vital food supplies are reaching some of the world’s most vulnerable people and places – including 30,000 tons of wheat that just left Ukraine aboard a WFP-chartered ship to feed hungry people in Sudan.”

He also said that these agreements matter “because we are still in the throes of a record-breaking cost-of-living crisis. Over the last year, markets have stabilized, volatility has been reduced, and we have seen global food prices fall by 20 percent. And they matter because they demonstrate that, even in the darkest hours, there is always a beacon of hope and an opportunity to find solutions that benefit everyone.”

Looking ahead, he concluded, “We hope that exports of food and fertilizers, including ammonia, from the Russian Federation and Ukraine will be able to reach global supply chains safely and predictably – as foreseen in both the Black Sea Initiative and the Memorandum of Understanding on Russian food and fertilizer exports – the implementation of which the United Nations is fully committed to support.”

"Peace is not just the absence of conflict; peace is the creation of an environment where all can flourish regardless of race, colour, creed, religion, gender, class, caste or any other social markers of difference."

"One of the most important lessons I learnt in my life of struggle for freedom and peace is that in any conflict there comes a point when neither side can claim to be right and the other wrong, no matter how much that might have been the case at the start of a conflict."
~Nelson Mandela

"Where men and women and children go burdened with hunger, talk of democracy and freedom that does not recognise these material aspects can ring hollow and erode confidence exactly in those values we seek to promote."

"I would say that the whole life of any thinking African in this country drives continuously to a conflict between his conscience on the one hand and the law on the other. This is not a conflict peculiar to this country. The conflict arises for men of conscience, for men who think and who feel deeply in every country."
~Nelson Mandela

5 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.

8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

12 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

13 And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.

14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.

15 See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.

16 Rejoice evermore.

17 Pray without ceasing.

18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

19 Quench not the Spirit.

20 Despise not prophesyings.

21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.

23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

25 Brethren, pray for us.

26 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.

27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.

28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.

Why is it that this United Nations' profile never features Russia's Ambassador to the United Nations Vassily Nebenzia?

Probably Ukraine can negociate peace having Crimeia and Donbass but stay out of NATO and EU.
