[🇪🇺 Ambassador Stavros Lambrinidis @EUAmbUN]

This morning at #UNSC stakeout, 116 UN Ambassadors, including 🇪🇺 & my 27 EU colleagues, joined forces to demand the protection of humanitarian personnel in conflict situations. Together, we recognized #UNSCRes2730 adopted 6 months ago - those who save lives need to be protected!

As global displacement continues to hit record highs, the EU remains committed to supporting #UNHCR's mandate—politically & financially.

We stand in solidarity with @Refugees & partners worldwide working tirelessly to protect forcibly displaced persons.➡️https://t.co/nZDokJgmdK

Sports have the power to bring us together & they play an important role in the promotion of peace and development, respect for human rights and gender equality. #GlobalGoals 🥅

[🇪🇺EU at UN-NY @EUatUN]

To harness the wealth of innovative ideas, we must meaningfully engage with civil society to reach an action-oriented Pact for the Future. An inclusive approach is key and why the EU is glad to support the upcoming 🇺🇳Civil Society Conference in Nairobi.

[🇪🇺 Ambassador Stavros Lambrinidis @EUAmbUN]

The Pact for the Future must reflect both the “what” (the world we want), and the “how” (the multilateralism we need to achieve our vision).

The 🇪🇺EU is ready to engage with co-facs @GermanyUN & @NamibiaUN and all 🇺🇳 countries to make this a success.

On #WorldHumanitarianDay we honour aid workers fallen in the line of duty and ask that humanitarian personnel working in dangerous contexts be respected by all parties, in all conflicts.

The Protection of civilians is an emergency.

Respect for Int’l humanitarian law is an imperative.

Together, we must redouble our efforts to protect civilians, not only on paper, but also in practice
