The EU🇪🇺 and AU🌍 Peace and Security Councils meeting reaffirms the importance of our partnership and provides an opportunity to translate the political commitments of the 2025 AU-EU Summit in Luanda into concrete progress on peace and security cooperation. @llombartpatUE
Nowhere in the world should violence against journalists be tolerated. It threatens the very foundation of open, free, and democratic societies. Yet, journalists are killed, harassed, and detained simply for doing their job. We must #EndImpunity for crimes against Journalists!
Not one more.
Journalists must be able to report freely and safely. When they are attacked or killed, those responsible must be brought to justice.
Since 2015, the EU has supported nearly 13,000 journalists at risk worldwide through ProtectDefenders.EU.
On the International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists, we call on all States to protect journalists and ensure accountability.

Stronger capabilities and lasting stability are at the core of our security partnership.Joined by @EUMAMMozambique Cmdr, I met MoD Chume to discuss the deepening of our security cooperation & the mission's role in delivering tailored training/advisory support to Moz ArmedForces🇲🇿
#EU - #UN are natural partners. On #UNDay, we reaffirm that global challenges require collective action. That is why the EU remains committed to working with the @UN for a more peaceful, just and sustainable world. Together, we can achieve more. #MultilateralismMatters🇪🇺🤝🇺🇳
The #ICC is essential to upholding international law and ensuring accountability for the gravest crimes in the world. The EU stands firmly behind the Court’s independence and its ability to deliver justice, free from pressure or intimidation.
EU Member States are serious about protecting the @IntlCrimCourt and a world governed by international law.
In The Hague, I met ICC President Tomoko Akane to convey the EU’s strong support for the Court, its judges, and their work.
The European Council has expressed its deep regret over the U.S. announcement to impose sanctions against the ICC and has urged to reverse them.
The EU will use the next six months for dialogue, to find a solution and explore what more we can do to help the Court.
The Sakharov Prize recognises the ICC’s vital work in giving victims of the gravest crimes a voice. The Court must remain able to pursue justice independently, free from pressure or intimidation.
Honoured to present my Credentials to H.E. President @daniel_chapo24 and officially begin my mission as EU Ambassador to Mozambique. Committed, together with the EU MS, to working with our Mozamb partners to strengthen links and turn shared ambitions into concrete results. 🇪🇺🇲🇿
European Parliament's #SakharovPrize 2026 for Freedom of Thought reaffirms #EU unwavering commitment to multilateralism, global justice, and protecting the independence of the #ICC and other international institutions against external threats and sanctions.

Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s export routes have consequences far beyond Ukraine, threatening global food security. Freedom of navigation in the Black Sea matters. Diplomacy must go hand in hand with sustained pressure on Moscow and continued EU support for Ukraine. Listen ↓
Russia is intensifying its attacks on Ukraine’s export routes.
Its aggression in the Black Sea make it harder to put food on people’s plates across the world.
A Black Sea freedom of navigation arrangement would protect lives and vital supplies.
Ukraine has proposed it. Russia has rejected it.
That is why diplomatic engagement must go hand in hand with sustained pressure on Moscow and support for Ukraine.

Food must never be used as a weapon of war.
At the UN, HR/VP @kajakallas underlined the EU’s call for attacks in the Black Sea to stop and for Ukrainian grain to flow safely to global markets again.🇪🇺🇺🇦
Grain from Ukraine feeds people all over the world.
But Russia is blocking exports through the Black Sea and is deliberately causing global food insecurity.
The EU is calling for attacks to stop and grain to flow again.
Food must never be used as a weapon of war.
My remarks at our UN side event on the Black Sea ↓
As #TeamEurope we met and congratulated Mr Felisberto Navalha, Governor of the Bank of Mozambique, following his recent appointment. We discussed the Central Bank’s contribution to Mozambique's economic reform agenda, looking forward to continued engagement and cooperation 🇪🇺🇲🇿
