Shocked by the news of the attack on a WFP convoy in Congo. The ongoing violence and lack of protection of citizens is unacceptable. Humanitarian workers are #notatarget. My thoughts are with the families, friends and colleagues of the victims, among them the Italian Ambassador.

[Baromètre sécuritaire du Kivu @KivuSecurity]

L'ambassadeur d'Italie en #RDC, Luca Attanasio, est décédé des suites de ses blessures après l'attaque, selon plusieurs sources diplomatiques et des autorités locales.

Protection of Children in Armed Conflict has always been a priority for 🇧🇪. Also at @NATO, CAAC is part of our broader human security & wps agenda.

This week we host an exhibition ’Rebel Lives’ to raise awareness about children who are deeply affected by the consequences of war.

@MonarchieBe @Presidence_RDC

[Belgique en RDCongo @BelgiqueRDCongo]

Twee vliegen in één klap.

Europese reizigers die nog in Kin geblokkeerd zaten, waaronder 45 Belgen 🇧🇪, zullen mee aan boord op de terugkeervlucht ↩️ van het humanitaire vliegtuig 🇪🇺🇨🇩 reizen om zo (eindelijk) hun woonplaats en hun naasten in België te vervoegen 🏡

#TeamEurope

[Philippe Goffin @PhGoffin]

🇪🇺🇨🇩 Ik had een uitstekend gesprek met president Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi over de #COVID19-crisis en behoefte aan internationale steun; de sociaal-economische uitdagingen en strijd tegen corruptie; de veiligheidssituatie en de noodzaak van een hervorming van het justitieapparaat.

[Belgique en RDCongo @BelgiqueRDCongo]

Audience conjointe 🇪🇺🇧🇪🇫🇷auprès du Président Tshisekedi.

Au menu des discussions:
➡️ riposte Covid-19 et Ebola 🦠
➡️ cadre macro-économique
➡️ défis socio-économiques
➡️ relations UE-RDC

#plusfortensemble 💪

[Philippe Goffin @PhGoffin]

🇪🇺🇨🇩 J'ai eu un échange fructueux avec le Président Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi sur la crise #COVID19 et le besoin de soutien international, les défis socio-économiques et la lutte contre la corruption, la situation sécuritaire et le besoin de réforme de la justice.

[🇧🇪 Belgium MFA @BelgiumMFA]

👋 Today, we welcome our 30 new trainee diplomats at the Ministry!

It is a bit of an unusual welcome in small groups of 10 people respecting the social distancing measures.

In times of #COVID19, diplomacy plays a key role in overcoming this crisis.

🇧🇪 Good luck to all of you!

7/7 Christine Kamikazi, Agnès Ndirubusa, Egide Harerimana, Térence Mpozenzi, and driver Adolphe Masabarakiza, are waiting to hear if they will be punished for doing their jobs, or if, as we hope, they will return home. Our thoughts are with them. #JeSuisIwacu @hrw END

[Lewis Mudge @LewisMudge]

6/ #Burundi human rights activist Nestor Nibitanga was also convicted of state security crimes in 2018 for threatening state security. He is serving out a 5-year sentence. @hrw https://t.co/D5ON2I9Tbi

[Lewis Mudge @LewisMudge]

5/ Others are have paid with their freedom. Germain Rukuki is serving a 32-year sentence for “rebellion,” & other state security charges. What crime warrants such a harsh punishment in #Burundi?

Just being a human rights activist. https://t.co/3TSpHbasY2

[Lewis Mudge @LewisMudge]

4/ Journalists have paid a heavy price for their work in #Burundi. In 2016, Jean Bigirimana, also with @iwacuinfo, disappeared on a reporting trip. Unconfirmed reports suggest he was arrested in Bugarama by the much-feared national intelligence service.
