Today we are celebrating 70 years of 🇦🇺-🇦🇹 diplomatic relations! 🎉
We cherish our close relationship, based on shared values and strong community & business ties.
We say “Danke” and continue to work together on #ClimateAction, #CyberSecurity, #innovation & #multiculturalism.
In this moment of peril, I must underscore my duty as Secretary-General to uphold the @UN Charter.
The Charter is clear.
Any annexation of a State’s territory by another State resulting from the threat or use of force is a violation of the Principles of the Charter & int’l law.
The @iaeaorg Board of Governors has sent another strong message to Russia: cease immediately all actions threatening nuclear safety & security, and return the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant & all other Ukrainian territory to 🇺🇦 control. 🇦🇺 proud to vote for this important resolution.
Iran must heed the calls of the international community to cooperate fully with the @iaeaorg to resolve outstanding questions on its compliance with the #NPT. Australia remains deeply concerned about Iran’s nuclear activities & calls on Iran to return immediately to the #JCPOA.
@Welpita Thanks for the great discussion @Welpita! It was very interesting to hear the analysis of Chile’s rejected constitutional reform thrown into the mix.
@Welpita on potential reasons Chile’s new constitution was rejected by over 70% of the population despite significant citizen participation in its design @DA_vienna
The expert mission from @iaeaorg arrived in #Zaporizhzhia on Wednesday.
The team will assess conditions at the nuclear plant there which has come under repeated shelling in recent weeks.

It is deeply disappointing that the #NPTRevCon was unable to reach consensus this evening, despite the extraordinary efforts of @G_Zlauvinen. Russia's rejection of the proposed text is, frankly, incomprehensible in light of the generous compromise by Ukraine & all other parties.
New ABS analysis shows an estimated 3.6 million Australians have experienced emotional abuse. This is coercive control - a pattern of abusive behaviour designed to create power and dominance over someone.

.@_RobFloyd convened an in-person Town Hall with #CTBTO staff working hard for a world free of nuclear tests. Excellent opportunity to mark achievements during the #CTBT25 anniversary year and thank staff for their dedication to our mission.
