UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres appealed to soldiers in Guinea-Bissau to return to barracks and to uphold democracy, saying coups were ‘unacceptable’ during a press conference at the United Nations headquarters in New York City, on Tuesday.
“Our strong appeal is for soldiers to go back to the barracks and for the constitutional order to be fully in place in the democratic context of today’s Guinea Bissau,” said Antonio Guterres.
Asked about the reports of a coup in Guinea-Bissau, the Secretary-General said that the details were still unknown. However, he stressed that it was clear that coups were “totally unacceptable”.
Defence forces and soldiers were reportedly engaged in five-hour-long firefight amid an attempted coup, on Tuesday. According to President Umaro Sissoco Embalo, the coup was thwarted and several attackers had been arrested.

SOT, Antonio Guterres, UN Secretary-General: “The people of Ethiopia continue to suffer greatly from ongoing conflicts and bloodshed. For Millenia the tradition of the Olympic truth is called on all parties everywhere to stop hostilities throughout the course of the games.”

SOT, Antonio Guterres, UN Secretary-General: “As I prepare to leave for the Winter Olympics I make the strongest possible appeal for all parties in Ethiopia for immediate succession of hostilities and this can allow effective humanitarian access and relief to all affected populations throughout Ethiopia. These actions will pave the way to a much-needed inclusive national dialogue involving all Ethiopians.”

SOT, Antonio Guterres, UN Secretary-General: “I reiterate my appeal to all parties to follow the finest traditions of the Olympic spirits to save lives, overcome differences and find the path to real peace.”

SOT, Antonio Guterres, UN Secretary-General: “We do not know yet, depends on what happening. It is for us clear that coups are totally unacceptable. We are seeing terrible multiplication of coups and our strong appeal is for soldiers to go back to the barracks and for the constitutional order to be fully in place in the democratic context of today’s Guinea Bissau. Thank you.”
