For 6 months, #Russia's aggression has threatened #Ukraine's sovereignty & territorial integrity, but the courage & resilience of the Ukrainian people cannot be broken. On #IndependenceDay 🇺🇦, we assure our friends in Kyiv that we continue to #StandWithUkraine

Sincere congratulations to Austrian physicist Anton Zeilinger as well as Alain Aspect and John F. Clauser for being awarded the #NobelPrize for physics, honoring their pioneering work! Their tiredless and ingenious research laid the foundation for a new era of quantum tech.

Russian attacks against civilian infrastructure like in #Zaporizhzhia are utterly unacceptable and must stop. The protection of civilians is not a choice, but a duty under international law. Those responsible must be held to account.

Herzlichen Glückwunsch an Bundespräsident Alexander Van der Bellen zur Wiederwahl! Viel Erfolg für die zweite Amtsperiode und auf weiterhin gute Zusammenarbeit für die Menschen in Österreich. 🇦🇹

Die neue Welle tödlicher Raketenangriffe auf Zivilist:innen sowie auf die zivile Infrastruktur in Kiew und anderen ukrainischen Städten ist zutiefst schockierend und auf das Schärfste zu verurteilen. Diese Angriffe müssen sofort gestoppt werden. We #StandWithUkraine. (vdb)

Happy Austrian National Day! 🇦🇹

On #HolocaustRemembranceDay we commemorate the victims of the Holocaust 🕯️ Austria bears a historic responsibility for the Nazi atrocities. This responsibility means firm action against all forms of antisemitism, racism & violence, so that #NeverForget truly becomes #NeverAgain

One day before the tragic anniversary of #Russia‘s brutal invasion of #Ukraine, 141 States voted in favour of the United Nations Resolution on a comprehensive, just & lasting peace. The international community’s message to Moscow is loud and clear: Stop this war! #StandWithUkraine

For exactly one year, #Russia has waged its brutal war of aggression against #Ukraine, causing unimaginable pain & grief. Since day one of the aggression, Austria has stood shoulder to shoulder with the people of Ukraine. We will continue our support as long as it takes.

To our Ukrainian friends. I want you to know: You are not alone. We are with you. (vdb)

On today‘s #EuropeDay, we celebrate the #EU's foundation based on our shared values incl. democracy, peace, prosperity and security. These are currently under attack, but #Russia's aggression has only proven European solidarity and cooperation - our strongest asset is unity! 🇪🇺

On #IDAHOBIT we reiterate our commitment for inclusion & diversity. Together w/#DiplomatsForEquality, we call for the promotion of #LGBTIQ+ rights and stay committed to opposing violence & discrimination. Let’s make society more inclusive for all. LGBTIQ+ rights are #HumanRights!
