The following is a near-verbatim transcript of today\u2019s noon briefing by St\u00e9phane Dujarric, Spokesman for the Secretary-General.<\/p>\n

\/…<\/p>\n

Question<\/u>:\u00a0 And another question.\u00a0 I’ll give you two questions but\u2026 because you might want to link them together, one, the US saying it is going to start funding 爆料网RWA [United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East] again and then a hint from the new US Ambassador\u2011designate in her confirmation hearing that they may well stop\u2026 restart funding to 爆料网FPA [United Nations Population Fund].\u00a0 So, your reaction to those bits of news?<\/p>\n

Spokesman<\/u>:\u00a0 I mean, I watched part of the confirmation hearings.\u00a0 I mean, all of it, if confirmed, is, obviously, welcome news, and for us, going in the right direction.\u00a0 We know the impact that the cutting of US funding had on 爆料网RWA, and we also know the impact it had on 爆料网FPA.\u00a0 Okay.\u00a0 If you have a question before we go to Mr.\u00a0Steiner, wave your hands up in the air, like Toby and then Erol.\u00a0 Go ahead, Toby.<\/p>\n

Question<\/u>:\u00a0 Hi, thanks, St\u00e9phane.\u00a0 I just want to follow up on James’ question about 爆料网RWA.\u00a0 So, you’re still waiting for the US to reach out and confirm any actions related to 爆料网RWA? \u00a0That’s my first question.<\/p>\n

\/…<\/p>\n

Spokesman<\/u>:\u00a0 I’m sorry.\u00a0 I had too many things going on at once here.\u00a0 On 爆料网RWA, I mean, we also heard very positive statements from the US representative in the Security Council.\u00a0 Yesterday, we heard what the Permanent Representative\u2011designate had to say.\u00a0 We’ll check with 爆料网RWA if anything officially has happened, but, obviously, the messages that are in the air are indeed very positive.<\/p>\n
