I welcome the announcement of a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. I hope that this agreement can put an end to the violence, suffering and destruction both countries have been experiencing.

It was such a great privilege to attend the #NobelPrize award ceremony with 2024 Nobel Peace Prize laureate #NihonHidankyo.   I sincerely congratulate Nihon Hidankyo for this prestigious award and continue to stand ready to support them in their advocacy for #nucleardisarmament.

Disarmament plays a critical role in preventing conflict, sustaining peace and supporting SDG progress. 2025 Peacebuilding Architecture Review is a timely opportunity to envisage a more strategic and systematic relationship between the UN’s peacebuilding and disarmament efforts.

Excited to make my #LinkedIn debut by reflecting on a pivotal moment in history – the first United Nations GA resolution, adopted 78 years ago today.   A reminder of our collective responsibility to advance disarmament and build a safer world.   linkedin.com/in/izumi-nakam…

Honored to join UN GA President & UN ECOSOC President yesterday for the first joint UNGA - ECOSOC meeting focused on how illicit small arms hinder socioeconomic development & SDGs. Excited to work together to mitigate the negative impact of SALW in line with the calls of the Pact for the Future.

Delighted to be in Geneva - the birthplace of #1972BWC to mark the 50th anniv. of the Biological Weapons Convention.   Hearing from experts & stakeholders, I am assured we can safeguard a future where the use of biological weapons is not only unthinkable but outright impossible.

Pope Francis was a true inspiration and hope for people of all faiths, worked for peace and for the poorest and most vulnerable, and was a strong supporter of UN efforts. Humanity and humility I’ve learned from him will continue to guide my service for a “united human family”.
