"Colombia's General Assembly: A Crucial Gathering for National Progress"
Colombian President Gustavo Petro Urrego warns that the multiple crises in the world, including war, hunger, recession, and the climate crisis, have deepened over the past year, leading humanity towards extinction. He highlights the migration flows from the South to the North as an indicator of the crisis of life, predicting that by 2070, 3 billion people will be forced to migrate due to uninhabitable homes. Petro calls for an end to hatred towards migrants and proposes two peace conferences on Ukraine and Palestine to achieve global peace. He criticizes the lack of monetary resources for climate change adaptation and calls for reforming the global financial system to decarbonize the world's economy. Petro emphasizes the need for public funds and global cooperation to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and ensure social and environmental justice on the planet.
