Happy World Animal Day 2026. A good excuse to post this picture of - almost - perfectly choreographed canines in Bhaktapur last week.

It was important to me to have my first crisis VTC with colleagues in #Nepal. I am grateful for all the work done by everyone involved to ease the pain for those suffering heavy losses after the natural disaster at the end of August. @EUinNepal @nepalinbrussels @eu_echo

Landing in Kathmandu today to take up my posting as EU Ambassador Designate to Nepal - the home of Sagarmāthā - was a humbling experience, after all that has happened in the last week. I will work hard in the next three years to ensure that the EU is the best of partners to Nepal
