Malta has formally notified all @UN Member States of the attack on the Malta‑flagged M/V San Antonio in the Strait of Hormuz. We condemn this unlawful act in the strongest terms. Targeting commercial vessels, and the seafarers who crew them, is unacceptable, violates international law, and endangers global maritime security. The latest attack, the third on a Malta-flagged ship in the past weeks, is in contravention of the recently adopted UN Security Council Resolution 2817 (2026). Targeting innocent merchant ships is a violation of International humanitarian law. Seafarers are civilians – and in this regard they are protected under the Geneva Convention, which prohibits attacks against civilians and civilian objects.

The Children and Armed Conflict agenda is a core test of our credibility - how we respond to the protection of children says a great deal about the strength of our commitment to peace, to international law, and to human dignity. In Valletta, today I opened the first conference in the @MFTmalta Malta Convener Series - Children and Armed Conflict: A Critical Component of the Emerging Global Peace and Human Security Framework - co-sponsored by @childreninwar @_VanessaFrazier. Reaffirming Malta’s belief that, even in a fragmented environment, there is space and a need for dialogue that is focused, inclusive, and forward-looking.

On 13 January 1965, Arvid Pardo became Malta’s first PR to the UN. In 1967, he championed the “common heritage of mankind,” paving the way for UNCLOS in 1982. Known as the “father of the law of the sea,” his legacy endures in ocean governance and peace today.

Behind every statistic is a child whose future depends on our collective action. As we celebrate 30 years of the CAAC mandate and one year of #ProveItMatters, @DeputyPMIanBorg from @MaltaGov 🇲🇹 reaffirms that children must be protected, always. Their rights are non-negotiable

🇲🇹🇫🇷 Malta’s Deputy PM Ian Borg met French FM Jean-Noël Barrot in Paris, reaffirming the strong Malta–France partnership. Talks focused on closer cooperation, EU and global challenges, maritime security, and shared commitment to peace, dialogue, and multilateralism. 🤝🌍⚓
