UN declares December 21 as World Meditation Day, India among co-sponsors
Saturday, 7 December 2024 The UN General Assembly declared December 21st as World Meditation Day, led by a group of nations including India. The date coincides with the Winter Solstice and falls six months after International Yoga Day. The resolution aims to promote meditation for well-being and peace, particularly amidst global tensions, reflecting India's philosophy of global unity.
In a powerful statement at the UN, Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative, Maria Zabolotskaya, condemned Western countries for their "double standards" in addressing the global refugee crisis. Highlighting the devastating impact of the Gaza conflict, she criticized the reluctance of Western nations to provide sufficient humanitarian aid to refugees, particularly those fleeing from war-torn regions like Syria, Afghanistan, and Sudan. Zabolotskaya also pointed out the hypocrisy in Western countries voicing concern over Ukrainian refugees while ignoring the plight of those seeking asylum in Russia. She called out the EU's failure to provide adequate support to refugees, especially those crossing the Mediterranean, and the deadly consequences of this inaction. With lives at stake and no accountability, the international community must confront the moral and legal crisis unfolding before our eyes.
