➡️Great to be back at the @coe Committee of Ministers under the Presidency of #Moldova 🇲🇩.
The Council of Europe 🏛️ has been an important part of my professional journey for many years, most recently serving as Ambassador to the @coe from 2017–2021. It was a pleasure to reconnect with many colleagues & friends again 🤝
Started the day in Chișinău with a working breakfast with President Maia Sandu 🇲🇩, followed by strong and inspiring discussions throughout the 135th Session of the Committee of Ministers.
➡️A key milestone: the adoption of the Chișinău 🇲🇩 Declaration on migration 📜⚖️ — advancing a balanced approach grounded in human rights, democratic security, and effective migration management 🛡️
➡️I highlighted the Council of Europe’s leading role in defending democracy and human rights across our continent, as well as its steadfast support for Ukraine 🇺🇦.
The Council of Europe is strongest when we work together — united, resilient & forward-looking 💪🇪🇺
Best of success to Monaco in its upcoming Presidency 🇲🇨! Thank to the 🇲🇩 #Moldova Presidency for the excellent work!

I condemn the massive Russian air attacks on Ukraine, reaching as far as Uzhhorod in the Zakarpattia region near the Slovak border, where a significant Slovak minority also lives.

Further escalation and attacks on civilian areas undermine the prospects for dialogue, a sustainable ceasefire, and a just and lasting peace. 🕊

➡️Greetings from Chișinău 🇲🇩, where I am taking part in the 135th Session of the Council of Europe @coe Committee of Ministers ⚖️🏛️ — beginning tonight with discussions on #Ukraine 🇺🇦🇸🇰🇲🇩.
I stressed that only diplomacy can pave the way toward a just and lasting peace 🕊️
As Ukraine’s direct neighbor, Slovakia is not only speaking up — we are delivering. We have welcomed nearly 200,000 Ukrainians who now call #Slovakia home, one of the highest per capita figures in the region 🏠🤝
We fully support Ukraine’s merit-based path to the EU 🇪🇺 and stand ready to share Slovakia’s own integration experience to help make this journey successful 🚀
Peace, security, and a shared European future — these are the values we stand for 🇸🇰🇺🇦✨ Always great to exchange views w/🇺🇦 FM @andrii_sybiha.🇸🇰🤝🇺🇦

Continuing our vital discussions in New York! 🇸🇰🤝🇺🇦 Greatly appreciated the friendly and open exchange with the Ukrainian Deputy Minister Oleksander Mischenko today.
A safe and prosperous Ukraine is an absolute priority for Slovakia. 🛡️✨ I reaffirmed our unwavering respect for territorial integrity and international law. We are also very pleased that oil flows through the Druzhba pipeline have been restored—a crucial step for Slovakia's energy security. ⛽🇸🇰
Slovakia continues to stand in solidarity, having welcomed thousands of Ukrainian friends seeking refuge. 🏠❤️ We are committed to our joint intergovernmental meetings and fully support Ukraine’s path to the EU. 🇪🇺🚀
Our future lies in concrete strategic projects—from modernizing railway links to enhancing energy cooperation. Together, we are building a more stable and stronger region! 🏗️🛤️💪

[Marek Eštok @MarekEstok_SK]

Start the day right! ☕🍳 Had a very productive S3 breakfast in New York with my dear colleagues and friends Marie from Czechia 🇨🇿 and Nikolaus fromAustria 🇦🇹.
Our Slavkov cooperation is more than just regional—it’s a powerful tool in multilateral diplomacy! 🇪🇺🤝 We discussed our joint initiatives at the UN, NPT conference and extensively talked about upcoming #UNSC elections🗳️🕊️where Austria 🇦🇹 competes for their mandate.
As Slovakia prepares to hand over the leadership baton, we are keeping the momentum high! 🏃‍♂️💨 When neighbors speak with one voice, Europe grows stronger! 🇸🇰💪🛡️

MULTILATERALIZMUS NEMÁ ALTERNATÍVU!
Medzinárodná spolupráca, rešpekt k medzinárodnému právu a dialóg sú základom mieru, stability a prosperity. História ukazuje, že sila a dvojaké metre vedú k nestabilite. Diplomacia zostáva jedinou udržateľnou cestou k mieru. 🇸🇰

[Slovakia at the Council of Europe @SlovakiaInCoE]

Important CM exchange with @CoE_CPT today. On behalf of Slavkov format 🇸🇰 🇨🇿🇦🇹 @OAlgayerova highlighted the relevance of the 35th General Report, noting migration challenges and the need to uphold Article 3 of #ECHR while balancing strict standards and preventing impunity.
