Deeply saddened by the loss of Raffaella Iodice. Her extraordinary commitment to Afghan women's rights and dignity at @EU_Commission was exemplary. Her tireless work in Afghanistan changed countless lives, giving voice to those unheard. My heartfelt condolences to her family.

My heart goes out to the incredibly courageous Sudanese journalist Madiha Abdalla as she shares her personal account at @FrontLineHRD #dublinplatform. Madiha calls for support for peace efforts and expresses #solidarity with the people in Palestine, Yemen and Ukraine

Why does the EU emphasises Human Rights in its External Action? To answer this and other questions, @EamonGilmore presented today to our participants the EU’s conception of human rights and the importance of this agenda for the EU’s external action. #EUDiplomacy
