In a democracy, there is a place for everyone. It is built on participation, diversity and equality. As the EU, we support genuine elections, protect independent media, stand with civil society and challenge disinformation, because in a democracy all voices matter. #DemocracyDay

Again a severe violation by Israel of international law and of the sovereignty of Qatar

European External Action Service @eudiplomacy.bsky.social · Sep 10

The airstrike carried out by Israel on 9 September in Doha breaches international law and violates Qatar’s territorial integrity.

The EU stands in solidarity with the people of Qatar.

This is a man-made disaster.

Enough is enough. The United Nations must be allowed to deliver aid of all types at scale to families in Gaza, wherever they are.

Starvation is a horrific reality for children and families in Gaza.

Aid at scale must be allowed in urgently.

Full support for the work and independence of the #ICC against any pressure

Kaja Kallas @kajakallas.bsky.social · Jun 6

The International Criminal Court upholds justice in the face of the most serious crimes.

It must remain free from pressure and true to its principles.

We will always support its vital work and protect its independence.

#Israel’s military operation in #Gaza, the disproportionate use of force and the deaths of civilians cannot be tolerated.

The continued targeting of civilian infrastructure is unacceptable.

2 straightforward messages for the Government of #Israel:

🔴 allow a full resumption of aid into #Gaza immediately

🔴 enable the #UN and humanitarian organisations to work independently and impartially to save lives, reduce suffering and maintain dignity

Born from the ashes of WWII, both the 🇪🇺EU & 🇺🇳UN were founded on a shared vision: to end the scourge of war.

Decades later, we continue to stand united in promoting peace, dialogue, and multilateralism.
