Tuvalu's Prime Minister Feleti Teo is urging U.N. members to permanently recognize the nation’s maritime borders and statehood amid rising sea levels.
The prime minister of Tuvalu intends to ask U.N. members to support its request for permanent recognition of its maritime borders and statehood due to the increasing sea levels.
In the past 30 years, sea levels in Tuvalu have increased by 15, which is 1.5 times higher than the global average, despite having an average elevation of just 2 meters.
Four officials provided information on an ongoing diplomatic plan to gain official acknowledgement of Tuvalu's independence, even in the event of the country being covered by increasing sea levels.
Officials say Prime Minister Feleti Teo will seek backing for Tuvalu's efforts to gain permanent recognition for its maritime boundaries and statehood during a high-level meeting on sea-level rise at the U.N. General Assembly.
Pasuna Tuaga, Tuvalu’s foreign affairs secretary, stated that Teo will be speaking at the opening session together with U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.
