he President of the 74th session of the UN TGeneral Assembly, Tijjani Muhammad- Bande, has said he would “collaborate and coor- dinate” with the Security Council, and the UN Secretariat to ensure that greater attention is paid to prevention rather than reaction to full blown conflict. “I will also advocate for effective early detec- tion and warning systems, as well as mediation, negotiation and peaceful settlement of ongoing conflicts,” Muhammad-Bande of Nigeria said in his inaugural address as UN General Assembly President on Tuesday. “I will work to engender cooperation that will address drivers of conflicts such as poverty, exclusion and illiteracy.” He stressed that he would “collaborate and coordinate” with the Security Council, and the Secretariat “to ensure that greater attention is paid to prevention rather than reaction to full blown conflict.” In June, the General Assembly elected Muhammad Bande, Permanent Representative of Nigeria, President of its 74th session. He served as Vice-President of the Assembly’s 71st session and was active in several other forums, includ- ing as Chair of the Special Committee on Peacekeeping Operations, member of the Advisory Board of the UN Counter-Terrorism Centre and Chair of the Economic Community of West African States Group.

uman Rights Watch has accused Brazil’s HPresident Jair Bolsonaro of giving a “green light” to illegal loggers to destroy the Amazon and failing to protect those defending the world’s largest rain forest. Bolsonaro, whose anti-environment rhetoric and policies have been widely blamed for a spike in fires and land clearing in the Amazon this year, has promised to open up the remote region to more development even as he faces growing inter- national criticism. Official figures show Amazon deforestation nearly doubled in the first eight months of this year, compared with the same period in 2018, to 6,404 square kilometers (2,472 square miles) -- more than twice the size of Luxembourg. The acceleration in deforestation has been blamed for the sharp increase in fires this year, which official figures show have reached nearly 124,000, as land is cleared and burned to make way for cattle grazing or crops. A decrease in pre- cipitation and a recent heat wave together with strong winds are also factors in the blazes.  9    !"#$%&"#
