Congratulations to Inmaculada Placencia Porrero, the first-ever EU candidate elected to the UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities #CRPD.
The EU is committed to advancing the rights of persons with disabilities and promoting more inclusive societies globally.
The EU welcomes unanimous #UNSC resolution that allows @_AfricanUnion -led peace operations to access funding from the UN budget. It’s a commitment the EU always supported. I commend Ghana, Gabon & Mozambique for building consensus in the #UNSC showing that multilateralism works.
Delighted to host @DicarloRosemary for a fruitful political exchange on the most pressing issues including support to #Ukraine, #Afghanistan and the #Sahel. Strong EU-UN cooperation is key to address present challenges. 🇪🇺 🇺🇳

Today's adoption of the EU Youth Action Plan for engaging young people in external action is a strong political signal.
It demonstrates the EU’s commitment to youth empowerment, to involve youth worldwide in policy-making, and to protect young activists.
No country is on track to achieve gender equality by 2030!
The EU Gender Action Plan III places gender equality at the heart of EU external actions. Let's get up to speed and join the global call to 🛑STOP violence against women today, and everyday.

#UNGA unequivocally rejected Russia’s illegal annexation of #Ukrainian territories, another blatant violation of the @UN Charter.
143 votes in favour confirm Russia’s international isolation.
Russia will be held accountable. The EU will stand by Ukraine for as long as it takes.
Started #UNGA week meeting UN Secretary General @antonioguterres.
We discussed the global consequences of Russia‘s war of aggression against Ukraine, and the situation in Africa.
The EU‘s core objective is to defend the rules-based global order and multilateralism.
Enhorabuena a Álvaro Lario, nuevo Presidente del FIDA! Un gran trabajo en equipo de @EmbEspItalia y un gran honor para España!

Welcome the renewal of UNSC resolution on the UN arms embargo on Libya. This reflects the recognition of @EUNAVFOR_MED Irini’s contribution to restoring peace & stability in Libya. EU is the only international actor inspecting suspect vessels to prevent arms flows to the country.
To address global food insecurity, we must act with urgency and in unity. The world can count on the EU!
The EU welcomes the work of the @UN Global Crisis Response Group & strongly supports the UN’s leadership in responding to this crisis.

Shocked by news of atrocities committed by Russian forces. EU assists Ukraine in documenting war crimes. All cases must be pursued, namely by @CIJ_ICJ.
