These continuous strikes are a serious threat to global food security.

They were children.

“Every Child Matters” asks us to remember them as children. They were sons and daughters, siblings, grandchildren, and friends. They had loved ones waiting for them. They had futures that were taken from them.

[Foreign Policy CAN @CanadaFP]

Protecting civilians is a fundamental obligation under international humanitarian law.
Norway is working with Canada, Ukraine and international partners to help bring Ukrainians home and support them as they rebuild their lives.

Facts matter. Independent and impartial fact-finding helps strengthen accountability, build trust and support respect for international humanitarian law. Thank you to Croatia and all participants for this timely discussion at #HRC63. 🇨🇦🇭🇷

[Croatia in UN Geneva @CROinUNGeneva]

🇭🇷 & 🇨🇦 co-hosted the side event “Facts Matter: Truth, Trust and Upholding IHL” at #HRC63. Speakers stressed that credible, independent and impartial fact-finding must go beyond documenting violations to build trust and prevent further harm.

[Foreign Policy CAN @CanadaFP]

Since 2014, and increasingly after its 2022 full-scale invasion, Russia has unlawfully detained thousands of Ukrainian civilians.

Arrested for teaching their language, defending their beliefs, and reporting the truth, they are not forgotten.

At the United Nations, leaders came together to advance the two-state solution and the diplomatic work needed to sustain it. We are working with partners toward a lasting peace where Israelis and Palestinians can live side by side in peace, security, and dignity.

[Prime Minister of Canada @CanadianPM]

A two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is critical for peace, stability and security in the Middle East and beyond.

Canada alongside its partners is taking action toward preserving the possibility of a durable peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians.
