&lt;p&gt;The 11th session of the governing body of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGRFA) held November 2025 in Lima, Peru attempted to handover all genetic resources of developing Southern nations to global seed agribusiness.

&lt;p&gt;On September 29, 2025, President Trump unveiled a 20-point peace plan to end the two-year-long Gaza genocide by Israel. The proposal comes amidst the ongoing genocide in Gaza, that caused enormous human suffering of human life that has never been heard of since World War II. The plan is offered at a time when global outcry condemning Israeli genocide and major Western nations recognised the Palestinian state and demanded an immediate ceasefire. While Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has (&#8230;)&lt;/p&gt;
