EU Foreign Ministers just gave the go-ahead to sanction Israeli settlers over violence against Palestinians. They also agreed new sanctions on leading Hamas figures. It was high time we move from deadlock to delivery. Extremisms and violence carry consequences.

Fascinating visit to @ashdodport, a vital cog in Israel's economy. Thanks to Chairman Shaul Schneider and CEO Nissan Levy for hosting us! Was impressed by their resilience during the war, efficiency in maintaining supply chains during difficult times and leadership in innovation.

We had a constructive and engaging discussion today with Roni Borstein @aluzi7771 and his team from the Israel–EU Chamber of Commerce and Industry. We discussed prospects for improving mutually beneficial economic ties between the EU and Israel.

Thank you Minister @avidichter for an interesting discussion on agriculture, trade and food security and the mutual benefits of sharing best farming practice. Looking forward to fruitful cooperation!

The Israeli import reform “What is good for Europe is good for Israel” is about to turn one! I was glad to open today’s workshop, co-organized with the Federation of Chambers of Commerce of Israel @businessisrael, to take stock of its implementation and improve its functioning.

Very interesting visit with EU Member States to Israel Electricity Company to learn about business opportunities for European companies & collaboration with European power utilities, and Israel's plans in the electricity sector.

I was honoured to kick off the Multinational Corporate Summit on EU-Israel trade, investment and innovation relations tonight in Tel Aviv. Thank you, Startup Nation Central @sncentral_, for inviting and organising!

Odesa’s main Orthodox cathedral. Established in 1794, destroyed by Stalin in 1936, rebuilt under an independent Ukraine and destroyed again by Putin in 2023. One of several historical parts of central Odesa, a UNESCO world heritage site, hit by Russian missiles strikes today.

Odesa, my home city, tonight. This is the real face of russia’s Orthodoxy for you, my brothers and sisters….

The immediate outcome of 🇷🇺 Russia killing the #GrainDeal will be increasing food prices again, hurting those most vulnerable, especially in Somalia, Ethiopia, South Sudan, and Yemen. Share this video to raise global awareness and end Russian #HungerGames!

It is bad news that Putin does not want to prolong the Black Sea #graindeal. It demonstrates to all of us that Russia does not feel responsible for good interaction and with its attack on #Ukraine threatens the whole world.

Hats off once again to @joburgtheatre for tonight’s sublime performance of Prokofiev’s Romeo&Juliet by @JoburgBallet. My favourite parts: the dance of the knights and the epilogue, the death of Juliet. Stunning! And the music….❤️🇿🇦@gotosouthafrica

Good winds dear Tobias, to you and your family! It was truly a pleasure and an enriching experience having met you and Viebeke! All the best in your new pastures 🙌

I am already thrilled! Will be there at the performance this Friday: I love Prokofiev’s version of Romeo and Juliet, and am curious to hear how it has been revisited! Not to mention the dancing…..🙌👏👍
