UN maritime security and seafarer protection initiative
Overview
India and Liberia launched the ‘Group of Friends on Safety and Security of Shipping and Seafarers’ at the United Nations Headquarters. Supported by 25 nations, the coalition aims to strengthen the protection of commercial shipping and maritime personnel through the frameworks of the International Maritime Organization and the International Labour Organization.
The initiative focuses on maritime corridor security and the safety of seafarers following attacks in the Red Sea, the Gulf, and the Black Sea. Co-chairs India and Liberia have issued joint condemnations of attacks on merchant vessels, such as the Alfa Watan, the Able, and the Aframax Rio, describing the violence as ‘indefensible’ and ‘unacceptable.’ The group continues to advocate for international coordination to safeguard maritime trade routes and protect the rights of sailors.
