We remember.🕯️

Today we honor 6 million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and millions of other victims of Nazism.

Trivializing, distorting, and denying the Holocaust continues to fuel antisemitism, damaging our collective memory.

Human rights belong to everyone – everywhere, at all times. Yet they are violated every day.

That is why the Human Rights Tulip will be presented today on #HumanRightsDay to support human rights defenders around the world and recognize their important work.

The Netherlands is committed to supporting Ukraine militarily, politically, and financially. From 2022-25, the NL supported Ukraine with $17.7 billion.

#StandWithUkraine

Now more than ever, our support is crucial to achieve a just and sustainable peace for Ukraine and Europe.
Today we mark Ukraine’s 34th Independence Day 🇺🇦

Ukrainians have been bombed, robbed of their homes and even their children. And yet they persist and stand strong.

The Netherlands will remain firm in its support. Our commitment to a free and independent Ukraine is unshakeable.

Today, we commemorate victims of violence based on religion or belief.

This is a key human rights priority of the Netherlands. Together with our partners, we work to protect religious minorities around the world.

No one should face prosecution for their religion or belief.

Aid workers are not a target. This must end.

We are committed to this cause worldwide. Because without safe humanitarian access, there can be no aid.

Today is #WorldHumanitarianDay.

Across the globe, aid workers – often serving within their own communities – devote themselves to helping people in need.

Increasingly, they do so in life-threatening conditions. For them, 2024 was the deadliest year on record. 1/2

On 17 July, our thoughts are with the 298 victims of the downing of flight #MH17, including 196 Dutch nationals, and their loved ones. The recent @echr.coe.int
judgment and @icao.int decision confirm Russia’s responsibility. We remain committed to achieving truth, justice and accountability.

Today we honor #AnneFrank, who was born on this day in 1929.
83 years ago, she was given her first diary for her 13th birthday. That dairy transformed the world.

May we all take a moment to make the world a better place. RIP, Anne.
