Luxembourg condemns last night’s drone attacks on civilian vessels in the Black Sea, in the immediate vicinity of Bulgaria’s territorial waters. Such attacks are unacceptable & constitute a further escalation of Russia’s war against Ukraine. We stand in solidarity with Bulgaria.

It was a pleasure welcoming Evie Ruymbeke, the new PermRep of Belgium to the Rome-based agencies. i’m looking forward to working together, bilaterally as well as within Benelux and the EU, in our fight against hunger, poverty and the fulfilment of the SDGs.

It was a pleasure to visit the Central Archives of the State in Rome and of particular interest to see different documents relating to the bilateral relations between 🇮🇹 and 🇱🇺, such a bilateral treaty dating back to 1878 or correspondance between our heads of government.

1/ The unauthorized entry by Israeli Security Forces into the @UNRWA Kalandia Training Centre in occupied East Jerusalem is unacceptable & a clear violation of Israel’s obligations under international law.   The protection & inviolability of UN premises must be guaranteed.
UN premises are inviolable. The forcible and unauthorised entry of Israeli forces into UNRWA’s Kalandia Training Centre is deeply alarming and threatens access to education and training for young #Palestine Refugees. Their opportunities and future must be protected. Full UNRWA statement: unrwa.org/newsroom/official-…

After Russia’s latest brutal attack on Ukraine, which again killed numerous innocent civilians, Luxembourg stands in full solidarity with Ukraine, the Ukrainian people, & Latvia following the bombing and complete destruction of Latvia’s Honorary Consulate in Sloviansk.
With indignation I confirm that Latvia’s Honorary Consulate in Sloviansk🇺🇦 has been hit by Russia’s attack. I have informed EU and NATO ministers and international organisations. Russia can destroy buildings, not Ukraine’s will and Latvia’s support. #StandWithUkraine

On this day, the European Union reaffirms its determination to defend #InternationalJustice and to fight impunity. There can be no lasting peace without justice, and no justice without accountability and meaningful reparations for victims. ➡️gd.lu/8S3DPF

28 years ago, the Rome Statute was adopted, laying the foundation for the #InternationalCriminalCourt. Today, we reaffirm the importance of accountability, justice for victims and the fight against impunity. ✊⚖️

Esattamente 70 anni fa, il lussemburghese Charlie Gaul vinse sul Monte Bondone con una prestazione eroica, conquistò la Maglia Rosa e, due giorni dopo, vinse il #GirodItalia del 1956. #girolegend
