President Trump has long talked about nuclear weapons and the threat they pose. If he’s serious about reducing that threat, he should join the #TPNW and invite Xi & Putin to join with him. A good faith step? They should all observe the #TPNW3MSP ⬇️🔗

In the annals of history, 2023 will forever stand as a testament to humanity's catastrophic failure . It's a tragedy that pierces the soul and demands immediate, resolute action to ensure that the future doesn't echo the screams of those whose lives were needlessly cut short.

Listen to the voices of children in Gaza over five escalations of hostilities.
To protect children from more killing, more injuries, more trauma, they need a lasting ceasefire now.

More than 20 countries that have not yet ratified the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons will observe the second meeting of states parties later this month, including 🇦🇺🇩🇪🇲🇭🇳🇴🇸🇬🇨🇭. We welcome their engagement. #TPNW
I disagree with this, EU countries are all different & members of the UN in their own right. Disagreement on issues isn’t a threat to EU — forcing member states to constantly vote the same is making sure EU will only agree on lowest common denominator and end up influence nothing

Regrettably, instead I was surprised by an unprecedented escalation of bombardments, undermining humanitarian objectives.
This situation must be reversed.
