We are partnering to build a resilient energy future for Ukraine.
At today’s G7+ Ukraine Energy Support Group, I stressed that @UNDP stands ready to bridge policy, financing and delivery.
In 2025 alone, our support helped 6.6 million people access critical energy supply.
We bid farewell to @lionellaurens_, @UNDP Somalia's Resident Representative, as he concludes three years of dedicated service in Somalia.
Throughout his tenure, Lionel provided inspiring leadership, fostered strong partnerships, and championed efforts to support Somalia's path towards peace, resilience, and sustainable development.
We thank Lionel for his remarkable contributions and wish him continued success and happiness in the journey
The dissonance between this vast howling mass of non-New Yorkers telling everyone to quit the city and the good vibes most in New York feel right now is quite something

Tucker Carlson: I would not support the Republican party, there's no chance I would support the Republican party. How could I support a political party that is not loyal to the United States. I voted Republican my entire life, I have been a consistent defender for 35 years of the Republican party, but there is no defending this. I'm out

Menerima kehadiran Perdana Menteri Bangladesh, @trahmanbnp yang dalam lawatan rasmi dua hari ke Malaysia di Putrajaya pagi ini.
Saya menghargai kesudian PM Tarique yang memilih Malaysia sebagai destinasi rasmi pertama beliau ke luar negara sejak memegang jawatan pada Februari 2026.
Ini mencerminkan eratnya hubungan persahabatan dan kepercayaan yang sekian lama terjalin antara Malaysia dan Bangladesh, serta menjadi penghormatan yang amat bermakna buat negara kita.
Setibanya di Perdana Putra, Tarique dan delegasi disambut dengan istiadat rasmi termasuk pemeriksaan kawalan kehormatan terdiri daripada 105 anggota dan tiga pegawai dari Batalion Pertama Rejimen Askar Melayu Diraja dipimpin oleh Mejar Nur Ahmad Zaim Zahari.
Lawatan ini pastinya bakal mengukuhkan hubungan dua hala yang erat selain meningkatkan kerjasama dalam bidang yang menjadi kepentingan bersama.

The IMF's favourite trick: compare 🍎 to 🥔.
When discussing "aid dependency", they often use **Sub-Saharan Africa** for aid figures but then switch regional definitions for GDP comparisons. Convenient. 🙃
Using OECD DAC aid to **all of Africa** and IMF's 2025 Africa aggregates:
💵 ODA to Africa: ~US$70–80bn
🌍 Africa GDP: ~US$3–4tn
➡️ Aid ≈ 2% of GDP
In PPP terms:
🌍 Africa PPP GDP: ~US$11–13tn
➡️ Aid < 1% of PPP GDP
That's not an economy "dependent on aid". That's a narrative dependent on selective denominators. 📊✨
A major milestone for our planet: In 2025, renewables officially overtook coal as the world’s largest source of electricity.
Renewable energy has never been more affordable or accessible.
And renewables can deliver what fossil fuels never will: real, lasting energy security.

Commissioner @MahamuudMoallim, alongside Somalia’s Ambassador to Kenya @Ijabril, today opened a SoDMA-organized forum in Nairobi focused on preparedness for the upcoming Deyr rains and potential flooding risks.
The meeting brought together government officials, international partners, UN agencies, and donors to strengthen early warning systems, improve flood preparedness planning, and explore financing mechanisms to support vulnerable communities at risk from natural disasters.
Ambassador @Ijabril highlighted the important role Somali businesses and the diaspora can play in supporting emergency response efforts and assisting communities affected by disasters.
Commissioner @MahamuudMoallim emphasized the need for stronger collaboration among government institutions, donors, and humanitarian partners to enhance disaster preparedness and ensure timely assistance reaches affected communities.
