Upcoming Cybercrime Treaty Will Be Nothing But Trouble

Backed By Russia, the New Treaty Aims to Stifle Dissent

https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/08/07/upcoming-cybercrime-treaty-will-be-nothing-trouble

Cybercrime—the malicious hacking of computer networks, systems, and data—threatens people’s rights and livelihoods, and governments need to work together to do more to address it. But the cybercrime treaty sitting before the United Nations for adoption, presumably by August 9, could instead facilitate government repression. By expanding government surveillance to investigate crimes, the treaty could create an unprecedented tool for cross-border cooperation in connection with a wide range of offenses, without adequate safeguards to protect people from abuses of power.

European Parliament backs resolution calling for suspending Hungary's EU voting rights

The European Parliament supported on Jan. 18 the resolution calling on the European Council and member states to suspend Hungary's voting rights, said Petri Sarvamaa, a senior member of the European Parliament (MEP).

Earlier this month, Sarvamaa launched a petition to remove some of Budapest's membership rights due to the country's "erosion of the rule of law" and obstructive behavior in the face of EU #consensus building.

The Treaty of Kadesh (Egypt-Hittite Peace Treaty, 1259 BC, Full Text)

The Treaty of Kadesh, signed around 1259 BC, was an ancient peace treaty between Pharaoh Ramses II of Egypt and King Hattusili III of the Hittites. It followed the inconclusive Battle of Kadesh and aimed to resolve territorial disputes. The treaty, known from inscriptions in Egypt and Hittite capital, established provisions for prisoner exchange, trade routes, and mutual defense. It emphasized diplomacy and cooperation. The Treaty of Kadesh is considered a significant milestone in international diplomacy, showcasing the possibility of resolving conflicts through negotiation rather than perpetual warfare.

FIRST OPEN LETTER ON THE WHO’s PANDEMIC TREATY

#StopTheTreaty

TO: People throughout the world. Governments, presidents, health ministers. Independent media

TO: WHO via World Health Assembly, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreysus, Dr Soumya Swaminathan

TO: United Nations via Antonio Guterres, Liu Zhenmin, Elliott Harris, Maria-Francesca Spatolisano

The World Council for Health (WCH), a coalition of scientists, doctors, lawyers, and civil society advocacy organizations, opposes the World Health Organisation (WHO)’s moves to implement a power grab in the form of a global pandemic agreement, while the world’s attention is diverted by the latest crisis.

The proposed WHO agreement is unnecessary, and is a threat to sovereignty and inalienable rights. It increases the WHO’s suffocating power to declare unjustified pandemics, impose dehumanizing lockdowns, and enforce expensive, unsafe, and ineffective treatments against the will of the people.

The WCH believes that the people have a right to participate in any agreement that affects their lives, livelihoods, and well-being. However, the WHO has not engaged in a process of public participation, which is evidence that its priority is capturing more power for itself and its corporate accomplices, than serving the interests of the people. Without an unbiased democratic process, any agreement by the WHO, acting via the United Nations, will be unlawful, illegitimate, and invalid.

Historically, the WHO leadership has failed the people. Among many examples, it approved the injurious H1N1 (swine flu) vaccine for a controversially declared pandemic. Equally, the WHO failed during the Covid-19 chapter as it encouraged lockdowns, suppressed early preventive treatments, and recommended product interventions that have proven to be neither safe nor effective.

The WHO cannot be allowed to control the world’s health agenda, nor enforce biosurveillance. While it receives funding from public sources belonging to the people, it is caught in a perpetual conflict of interest because it also receives substantial funding from private interests that use their contributions to influence and profit from WHO decisions and mandates. For example, the Gates Foundation and the Gates-funded GAVI vaccine promotion alliance, contribute over $1 billion a year.
Call to Action

WCH partners, from Australia to Zimbabwe, stand against this costly abuse of power and assert the sovereign right of people to make their own decisions, over and above what their representatives may want. We urge everyone to approach credible government representatives, political parties, trade unions, civil society groups, professionals, public figures, and independent media to:

  1. Raise awareness about the implications of the proposed global pandemic agreement;
  2. Call for national campaigns that protect natural law and democratic constitutions;
  3. Join credible civil society coalitions such as the World Council for Health.

We also encourage everyone to learn more about principles, accords, conventions, and treaties that protect the rights of men, women, and children. These include the Siracusa Principles in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights which provide legal standards to protect rights.

Leading up to the WHO’s 77th World Health Assembly in 2024, where the WHO intends to confirm their pandemic agreement, the WCH will continue to raise awareness through campaigning against this undemocratic move. For information about the WCH’s past work on this issue, follow these links to the WCH Townhall on the pandemic plan, and see these articles on the subject.

#Map of U.S. with #native American #territory if they didn't break the #treaty.

map

The conclusion of the U.S. Indian Claims Commission in 1978 resulted in a map identical to this, which reflected the various claims before the commission and its courts. In some instances, the land marked here as "unceded" was not necessarily land that wasn't included by treaty, but in some cases was land that was promised and reserved for specific uses (i.e., hunting lands). In other cases, the map simply reflected the original territory of a certain #Tribe or #Tribes within which claims for uncompensated takings would be recognized. Anyone interested in reading the report and specifically the preface to the map should check it out here: https://narf.org/nill/documents/icc_final_report.pdf

We need a strong global treaty to help curb the plastic pollution crisis
#Plastic #SingleUse #Pollution #Treaty #Oceans #Waterways #Crisis #Greenpeace #Petition

"Next week, we have an historic opportunity. We have the chance to drastically reduce plastic waste through the adoption of a global plastics treaty at the upcoming United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) meeting. But we need your help.

Starting February 28th, the UNEA will meet in Nairobi, Kenya to discuss a mandate to open negotiations for an international, legally-binding treaty on plastic. This means that plastic pollution will be globally regulated and everybody will have to comply.

We’re asking our amazing supporters to sign the petition calling on the NZ Government to support a strong global plastics treaty. Will you help us seize this rare opportunity for change?

The movement pushing for lasting solutions to the plastic pollution crisis is gaining speed! A few days ago, weeks before Global Plastics Treaty discussions, Coca-Cola announced it will make at least 25% of its packaging reusable by 2030.

Is this enough? No: we need Coke to do more by committing to 50% reusable packaging by 2030 and other big brands like Pepsi, Unilever and Nestlé must follow suit.

Things are changing – just not fast enough to match the scale of the crisis. That’s why we need a legally binding global treaty. A strong treaty means keeping oil and gas in the ground. It means big brands switching to refill and reuse systems. It means working in solidarity with frontline communities. It means better air and climate.

To truly tackle this global crisis, we need a solution that matches the scale of the problem. A commitment between nations is what we need to stop plastic pollution at its source and save the planet. A global treaty is the solution.

Please talk to your friends and whānau about signing the petition today. Let’s stand together to ensure that we encourage the NZ Government to support a strong global plastics treaty.

As always, thanks for taking the time to read this email and your ongoing support.

Ngā mihi,
Juressa and the Greenpeace Aotearoa whānau"

We need a strong global treaty on plastics
#Politics #Plastic #SingleUsePlastic #Treaty #Pollution #Avaaz #Petition

"We’ve seen it choking life in the deepest oceans and on the highest mountains. Now, shocking studies are finding plastic pollution everywhere: in the rain, our food, our drinking water, even in the human placenta! It’s poisoning us, and life on Earth.

But finally we have a unique opportunity to change this.

Right now, the United Nations is considering a new ambitious global treaty to end plastic pollution. If countries agree to it, we have a real chance of cleaning up our planet! But big polluters are already trying to water down the proposal.

It’s up to all of us to show them that the whole world supports the strongest possible treaty to end the plastic crisis!

Plastic is toxic from the moment production begins. It’s made from the same dirty fossil fuels that are driving the climate crisis. And it doesn’t decompose! A plastic bottle breaks down into tiny, invisible pieces that can travel around the world through water and air, contaminating our seas, our rivers, and even our bodies!

Even rain is polluted with plastic. Scientists in the US found that rain is flooding protected national parks with 1,000 tons of microplastics every year -- that's the equivalent of pouring over 120 million plastic bottles!

This is a planetary emergency, and we need an urgent, coordinated international response. That’s why more than 100 countries are calling for a binding global treaty, which could bring an end to the throwaway-plastic culture, and transition the world towards a future that protects people, wildlife, and our climate.

But big oil and chemical firms, as well as a small group of countries, led by Japan, are already trying to weaken the plan. So we need to mobilise fast, and show our governments at the key UN meeting this month that people everywhere demand the most robust treaty to end the plastic plague.

We’ve done it before. Our movement spearheaded the mobilisations that led to the landmark Climate Paris Agreement, and more recently we mobilised from around the world to stop rich countries from dumping their plastic waste onto low-income nations. We know that such battles can be long, and treaties don’t always deliver the results we need, fast enough. But this is the best chance we have ever had to kick-start a coordinated, international response – so we all have to speak out now, and keep pushing until we win a world safe from plastic.

With hope and determination,

Spyro, Laura, Luis, Anneke, Huiting, Muriel, Stefanie and the whole team at Avaaz"
