A tinge of sadness as I leave Japan to prepare for my next posting as 🇩🇪 ambassador to China. I take with me fond memories of a wonderful country and a sense of accomplishment on how 🇪🇺🇯🇵 relations have deepened and broadened during my tenure.

As we mark the passing of yet another year from that terrible day, my thoughts are with those I met during my travels to Fukushima and Sendai, who have shown remarkable resilience as well as their love for their communities as they continue tirelessly to rebuild.

The horrific targeting of the most defenceless and vulnerable is another cross the Kremlin must bear.
The human suffering must stop now – Russia must provide safe passage and humanitarian access immediately!

[Josep Borrell Fontelles @JosepBorrellF]

#Mariupol is under siege.

Russia’s shelling of maternity hospital is a heinous war crime.

Strikes of residential areas from the air and blocks of access of aid convoys by the Russian forces must immediately stop.

Safe passage is needed, now.

On #InternationalWomensDay let’s remember: we are women and we are strong. Look at the women of #Ukraine🇺🇦courageously defending their country and protecting their children in the midst of war. I call on all of us, including men, to join hands toward gender equality. #IWD2022

In coordination with 🇺🇸🇫🇷🇩🇪🇮🇹🇨🇦🇬🇧 I will now propose new measures to EU leaders to strengthen our response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and cripple Putin’s ability to finance his war machine. https://t.co/iU2waDzo9s

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

In these dark hours, tonight the colours of the Ukrainian flag shine bright on the @EU_Commission headquarters.

A symbol of our solidarity. Friendship. And steadfast support.

More than ever, the EU stands with Ukraine and its people.

[Janez Lenarčič @JanezLenarcic]

Following the completely unjustified Russian invasion today, Ukraine has submitted an URGENT request for medical aid items via the 🇪🇺 Civil Protection Mechanism. I call on all MS and participating States to immediately respond with offers of assistance. The time to help is NOW❗
