New Year’s tradition: sibling pic + me acting like the responsible one 😇 (Plot twist: I’m just better at looking calm in photos.😉) Oldest sibling prediction for 2026: we’ll be dramatic, we’ll be loud, we’ll be fine. Wishing you a 2026 full of love, health, and zero debate 🥰

🔸As @Luarasi reminds us: romanticising stalking puts women in danger. Article 34 of the #IstanbulConvention requires States to prevent and punish #stalking, online & offline. When behaviour causes fear and loss of freedom, it is violence not affection. #16daysofactivism

@mahi_najafi73 Any system that tolerates the humiliation of women has a problem, whether it calls itself Western, Eastern, capitalist or anything else. Asking for respect and safety for women is not “Western logic”. It’s human logic.

@Luarasi The evil Western capitalist logic humiliates women

Spoke at DISICON 9 about how disinformation and online hatred were used against me after I defended gender equality in parliament. Online gender-based violence is not “just comments” – it’s political violence meant to silence women. We won’t be silenced. #DISICON9

🆕“Parliaments must take violence against women seriously. The #IstanbulConvention saves lives.” @CatiaPolidori ,@PACE_Equality Chair, calls on Latvia's parliamentarians to support & uphold the Convention. 🔗Read her declaration ⬇️ @CoE_Women @PACE_News pace.coe.int/en/news/10043/…

Career update: upgrading from long policy emails to slightly shorter speeches. Moving from civil society & academia to the Albanian Parliament. Same mission, more responsibility, better chair (I hope). Let’s push from the inside—together. 🏛️✨

Për mua Turi nuk ishte vetëm një figurë publike por edhe një kujtim fëmijërie nga Rruga e Durrësit. Më pas, rrugët tona u kryqëzuan në studio televizive. Edhe kur nuk mendonim njësoj, tek ai admiroja mençurinë dhe kujdesin për të mos lënduar. Prehu në paqe, Turi! Qofsh i Parajses

Toleranca ndaj tokave të xanuna në kurriz të komunitetit apo lejeve me shkelje në kurriz të qytetit, që janë pranuar nga qeverisja vendore si bashkëudhëtare të jetës urbane, ndërkohë që inspektoriatet e mbrojtjes së territorit dhe policitë bashkiake janë bërë në të shumtën e rasteve pjesë e problemit, do të adresohet rrënjësisht me një reformë të re ligjore të kontrollit e të zhvillimit të territorit, për të cilën kemi nisur nga puna paralelisht me disa reforma të reja të shërbimit me ujë të pishëm, të sistemit të pastrimit e të përpunimit të mbetjeve, të furnizimit të popullit me naftë e me barna, si edhe të shërbimit spitalor, që do të jenë piketat e hyrjes në rrugën e mandatit tonë të katërt për Shqipërinë 2030 në Bashkimin Europian🇦🇱✋🇪🇺

Good news for Albania! The opening of Cluster 3 negotiations at the 5th Accession Conference brings 🇦🇱 closer to the 🇪🇺 Progress in this cluster will be key to areas like the digital transition, taxation & education, which will boost Albania's competitiveness & inclusive growth

Switching gears from primetime politics to primetime fun! 🎥✨ I have traded heated debates for sizzling pans at @topchanneltv , where an interview meets a cooking show! Who says you can’t be serious and playful at the same time? Let’s spice things up and show the lighter side of life beyond the headlines! youtu.be/sXSea0ri9Bc?si…

50 shades of white!!! More like one pure, dazzling Ashgabat! 🏛️✨ Exploring this marble masterpiece of a city was unforgettable, but the real highlight? The amazing company of stakeholders from #turkmenistan and OSCE colleagues and friend that made every moment brighter. 🫶🌍

Annual sibling photo tradition: where I graciously let them stand next to greatness (aka me, the oldest sibling). Another year of surviving and thriving as the family CEO! 😎 I remind everyone that I’m the oldest, wisest, and most patient (mostly because I have to put up with these two)! Here’s to another year of sibling chaos and memories. Love you guys❤️ #OldestAndBoldest #SiblingGoals #FamilyFirst”

🎅 Santa was so generous this year—he even managed to gracefully squeeze through my elegant chimney without a single scratch on his suit! Must be that Christmas magic ✨🎄 #SantaApproved #ChimneyGoals #MerryChristmas

#DohaForum - Lavrov’s remarks attempt to deflect blame and frame Russia as a defender of global equality, but his narrative conceals the true drivers of conflict and instability. The assertion that the U.S. and NATO are the sole sources of “havoc” ignores Russia’s own repeated violations of international law, from illegal annexations to military interventions. #Peace #Accountability #GlobalStability

🌟 Thrilled to share that we have successfully completed the country monitoring visit in Ireland as part of the @ECRI_CoE 🇮🇪 I feel incredibly grateful to have worked with such a fantastic team, including Anna Sara Lind and two amazing members of ECRI's Secretariat.
