Timely meeting today on rising wildfire risks and response this summer. Discussed the lessons learned from recent disasters. Strengthening preparedness and citizen awareness is key. The EU is ready to support every step.

Ravie de revoir le Min. Grande Marlaska pour échanger sur les risques de feux de forêt, de nos moyens de lutte et des retours d’expérience des récentes urgences. Renforcer la préparation et la sensibilisation des citoyens est une priorité. L’🇪🇺 est prête à accompagner.

Fighting climate hazards is also about taking very concrete steps. Great work by Hadja Lahbib in preparing us for the disastrous events that will inevitably come. I was myself in Greece today and witness first-hand the great work done in preventing forest fires around Athens.

In my phone call today with Mahmoud Abbas, President of the Palestinian Authority, I reiterated my grave concerns regarding the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza and the escalating violence in the West Bank. I expressed full support for the UN Secretary-General’s

Great constructive exchange with IPPF Global and Center for Reproductive Rights on advancing EU #gender equality policy, in particular sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).

We have the supplies, plan, will, and networks to deliver massive amounts of lifesaving aid to civilians in Gaza, in line with humanitarian principles, as the world is demanding. Enough. Let us work. No more time to lose.

#Israel/#Palestine: Statement by High Representative Kaja Kallas Israel’s military operation in Gaza, the disproportionate use of force and the deaths of civilians cannot be tolerated. The continued targeting of civilian infrastructure is unacceptable. eeas.europa.eu/eeas/israelpal…

The situation in Gaza remains intolerable. Israel’s strikes in Gaza go beyond what is necessary. Humanitarian aid must never be politicised or militarised. Challenging the special status of Jerusalem risks further escalating tensions. My statement → europa.eu/!4nXrtT

Humanitarian aid must never be politicised or militarised. It must protect, not degrade. Aid must be delivered with the UN & experienced humanitarian partners in line with #IHL. Let us deliver. A political solution is the only way forward.

L’aide humanitaire ne doit jamais être politisée, ni militarisée. Elle doit protéger, pas dégrader. L’aide humanitaire doit être délivrée avec l’ONU et des partenaires humanitaires expérimentés, en conformité avec le #DIH. Une solution politique est la seule voie possible.

Today, we adopt a new Strategy for the Black Sea – a region of great importance to the EU. We’re stepping up work on security with: 🔹A new Maritime Security Hub 🔹Improved military mobility 🔹Stronger cooperation against hybrid threats My press conference ↓

The Black Sea region is geostrategically significant. Today, we are presenting an EU strategy to reinforce our role as a reliable partner there. Russia’s unprovoked and unjustifiable full-scale invasion of Ukraine is hampering stability in the region ↓

I share World Food Programme’s shock. Civilians, including humanitarian staff and their assets, must be protected at all times. Humanitarian space must be granted. #NotATarget

We need to save lives after natural disasters AND prepare communities for future climate shocks.   I’ve allocated funds from CERF - The UN's emergency fund to do that in these eight countries.

Pleased to meet with Niels Annen 🇩🇪🇪🇺🇺🇳 and congratulations on your appointment as State Secretary Bundesentwicklungsministerium. Grateful for Germany's commitment to international cooperation and its strong support of UN Development.

Extremely close race in the presidential election in 🇵🇱. We will have to wait for the official result some time tomorrow to know the real result. Let’s hope for the best.
