Today, I briefed United Nations Human Rights Council, opening my last session as High Commissioner. I will not be seeking a second term for personal reasons. It is time to go back to Chile & be with family. I urge States to identify common ground to achieve solutions to our shared human rights challenges.
Hoy he hablado ante United Nations Human Rights Council, abriendo mi última sesión como Alta Comisionada. No me presentaré a un segundo mandato por razones personales. Es hora de volver a Chile y a mi familia. Pido a los Estados que trabajen juntos para solucionar desafíos en materia de derechos humanos.
Internet shutdowns are powerful indicators of deteriorating human rights situations. I look forward to our joint campaign, with European External Action Service - EEAS 🇪🇺, for an open and secure internet. Josep Borrell Fontelles.
As my time as High Commissioner draws to an end, I call on everyone – States, companies, civil society – to stand with the countless people around the world who defend human rights. They protect us. We have to protect them. And count on UN Human Rights to continue supporting YOU
Al concluir mi mandato como Alta Comisionada, insto a todos -Estados, empresas, sociedad civil- a que apoyen a las innumerables personas de todo el mundo que luchan por los DDHH. Nos protegen. Tenemos el deber de protegerlos. Pueden seguir contando con el apoyo de UN Human Rights.
