Ich werde oft gefragt, warum 🇩🇪? Aus verschiedenen Gründen: spannendes Land, interessante Arbeit, wichtiger Zeitpunkt. Aber der wichtigste Grund liegt in der Familie. Thread. (1/7)

Yesterday, I delivered the UK's opening statement at ITLOS. The UK has no doubt about its sovereignty over the Falkland Islands.
We will continue to be unwavering in our support for the people of the Falkland Islands and their fundamental right to self-determination.

The ocean connects us all, and protecting it is a responsibility we share.
Protecting our oceans enhances our collective security and ensures that we leave the world in a better place than we found it.
Yesterday’s signing of the Hamilton II Declaration marks an important step in building international support for the conservation of the Sargasso Sea and delivering on our global ambitions for nature and climate.

Thank you to ministers, officials, NGOs and civil society community leaders who joined our discussion on supporting women and girls in Bermuda.
Ending violence against women and girls is a priority for the United Kingdom, and partnerships like these help build safer, more resilient communities in the United Kingdom as well as globally.
Shared collaboration is vital in the global fight to end violence against women and girls.

Fascinating to visit the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences and meet the researchers helping us better understand and protect the Sargasso Sea.
Science is at the heart of effective ocean conservation, and Bermuda is making an important contribution to global knowledge and environmental protection.
The United Kingdom will continue to back science and environmental stewardship across the Overseas Territories.🌎🔬

Delighted to have begun my visit to Bermuda with a meeting with Premier E. David Burt.
I was in Bermuda to continue our push to leave the world in a better place than we found it, driving forward shared priorities on climate, security and violence against women and girls.
Bermuda is a valued member of the Overseas Territories family, and I look forward to strengthening our partnership as we work together on the issues that matter most to our communities. 🇬🇧🇧🇲

Today I handed over my role as Administrator of Tristan da Cunha to Andrew Wells. It has been a real privilege to serve this unique community on the world’s most remote inhabited island. I leave here this weekend, but a piece of my heart will be forever Tristan #TristandaCunha

The UK stands shoulder to shoulder with the Falkland Islanders.
We will always support their right to determine their own future, and today announced new Protection of Trading Interest legislation to defend UK businesses from Argentine domestic measures.
Nicholas Wareham retweeted
The Falkland Islanders have a right to develop their natural resources as they see fit.
Today we have announced new measures under Protection of Trading Interests legislation to ensure people and companies are shielded from Argentinian threats.
Attempts to intimidate those taking part in legitimate commercial activity are unacceptable.

ALT Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband said: "The UK's support for the Falkland Islands is steadfast. “Argentina's attempts to intimidate businesses and individuals engaged in legitimate commercial activity are unacceptable. Companies should be free to make lawful commercial decisions without the threat of political coercion. “We will always stand up for the Falkland Islanders, their right to determine their own future, and their right to pursue legitimate economic development."

The Falkland Islands are British. We will always defend the Falkland Islanders' right to self-determination.
Read the United Kingdom's response to Argentina's latest attempt to undermine the rights of Falkland Islanders below.
![Argentina's decision to initiate arbitration against the United Kingdom under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) is the latest attempt to undermine the rights and livelihoods of the people of the Falkland Islands. The people of the Falkland Islands have freely and democratically chosen their future, and they have every right to develop and manage their natural resources without intimidation, coercion or interference from others. Hydrocarbon activities on the Falkland Islands continental shelf are regulated under Falkland Islands law and conducted in full accordance with international law, including UNCLOS. This week we made clear to Argentina's ambassador to the United Kingdom that efforts to obstruct lawful economic activity in the Falkland Islands are not acts of responsible international engagement; they are deliberate attempts to undermine the prosperity and economic security of a self-governing people.

The United Kingdom is clear: the Falkland Islands are British and people there have the right to develop their natural resources as they see fit.
Decisions on hydrocarbons are a commercial matter for Falklands Islanders and the companies involved - and them alone.

Delighted to begin my first official visit as Minister to the Caribbean here in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
Continuing on from the discussions we had in London with the Premier of Turks and Caicos and partners on the issues that matter - from regional security to resilience in Haiti.
The UK is committed to the prosperity of the TCI's people 🇹🇨. Thank you for the warm welcome.

The Falkland Islands are British.
Our commitment to upholding their right of self-determination is unwavering.
I spoke with MLAs yesterday to reaffirm the United Kingdom's enduring support and Falkland Islanders' right to use the Islands’ natural resources to build their economy, including hydrocarbons.
Nicholas Wareham retweeted
The UK's position on the Falkland Islands is unwavering.
The Islands are British and will remain so because that is the overwhelming position of the Islanders.
Their right of self-determination is paramount, grounded in international law and we will resolutely uphold it.

Great to meet Premier @TCIPremier Washington Misick in the @FCDOGovUK today. I am committed to working in partnership with his Government to deliver for the people of Turks and Caicos Islands. Our discussion showed many areas where we can do even more together, such as embracing technology, strengthening regional security and tackling violence against women and girls.
I was also delighted to hear Premier Misick's reverse mentors younger officials in Turks and Caicos, I am sure he and I can also learn a lot from one another. I look forward to working together.
