„The heads of six UN agencies have appealed to world leaders to act urgently to make sure food and supplies get to Palestinians in Gaza, where Israel has stopped letting in deliveries for more than a month.

Continued thread

J’aimerais que toutes les grandes ONG médicales et humanitaires (MSF, Médecins du monde, Action contre la faim, CCFD, etc.) et les grandes institutions mondiales (OMS, Unicef, Croix-Rouge, etc. – je ne connais pas si bien le statut de chacune) lancent un appel solennel conjoint aux pays de l’OCDE et aux instances supranationales comme l’UE, pour compenser ce que les US font perdre à l’humanitaire mondial par leur désengagement.

Ça demande du courage, parce que des prises de position dans ce sens des chancelleries comme des acteurs de l’humanitaire vont déplaire à Trump, mais il est indispensable de réagir fortement.

LA FRANCE, L’EUROPE, TOUS LES PAYS DE L’OCDE HORS USA, DOIVENT IMPÉRATIVEMENT AUGMENTER MASSIVEMENT ET RAPIDEMENT LE VOLUME DES PROGRAMMES D’AIDE HUMANITAIRE ET MÉDICALE PARTOUT DANS LE MONDE OÙ C’EST NÉCESSAIRE !

Je l’ai écrit en petit avant, ça ne marche pas du tout 😊

Je n’en peux plus d’entendre « le démantèlement de l’USAID et la réduction à la portion congrue de ce qui restera sont catastrophiques » en même temps que « coupes claires dans les budgets de l’aide au développement dans l’UE, pour financer l’effort de défense » Et l’humanitaire ? No comment, mais on est désolés.

C’est insupportable !

Aussi, j’aimerais…
