00:04third day of the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly.
00:09Our special envoy to New York, Jorge Gestoso, with the details.
00:16The reflection of all the members of the United Nations to create a mission on a permanent
00:22basis to keep the peace in Haiti has been the request of the President of the Transitional
00:29Council that today takes place in Haiti, because so far there's only a mission sent by the
00:37Kenyans, about 400 policemen has been sent already, they expect 2,500 by the end of the
00:44year in order to keep only that part of the peace, especially in Port-au-Prince, they
00:51only secure the airport.
00:54And precisely because of that, the President of Haiti has a much more ambitious plans and
01:00they say it's absolutely necessary to create that permanent mission of peace.
01:07That was one of the highlights.
01:08He says also that in Springfield, Ohio, it has been said by the candidate Donald Trump
01:18that the Haitian community there eats cats and dogs, and he said that it's absolutely
01:23absurd, that it's a show of xenophobic and racist remarks against not only Haitians,
01:31but all the immigrants in the U.S.
01:34He congratulates precisely the community of Haitians in that city because their work has
01:41been an example of good behavior and contribution to the city of Springfield.
01:48Before of that, we heard the President of the Authority of the Palestine, we're talking
01:55about Mahmoud Abbas, he put special emphasis that he was not there in this case in the
02:02debate to respond to the lies, as he mentioned, of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
02:09He said that it's absolutely necessary to stop the crimes and even, he went further,
02:14he said, to stop the genocide against Gaza that is taking place.
02:18He said it has to stop now, he put emphasis in now.
02:22He said that 70 percent of Gaza has been totally destroyed, that it's absolutely necessary
02:29that the United Nations eliminate Israel, because it doesn't deserve to be a member
02:36of the United Nations.
02:37He asked precisely to stop also the sending of weapons, weapons that are being sent by
02:45the U.S. and the international community, especially the European Union, to feed precisely
02:52those what is called the genocides.
02:54We're talking about more than 40,000 Palestinians have been killed, most of them children and
03:01women.
03:02And at the same time, he said it's necessary to implement as soon as possible a permanent
03:08peace.
03:09The aid is absolutely necessary, the aid for the people, because they say they have nothing,
03:17absolutely nothing in Gaza, and it's absolutely necessary to establish a two-states situation.
