UN and PACE share the same objectives and concerns: consolidating the rules-based international order, ensuring the protection of human rights in every corner of the world, protecting the environment, and addressing the impact of AI on democracy, human rights and the rule of law.
I talked with President @christodulides who briefed me on the single incident that occurred shortly after midnight involving an unmanned aerial vehicle targeting the British base in Akrotiri. While the Republic of Cyprus was not the target, let me be clear: we stand collectively, firmly and unequivocally with our Member States in the face of any threat.
