At least 326 humanitarians were killed in the line of duty across 21 countries during 2025, bringing the total killed over three years to over 1,010. “This is not an accidental escalation. It is the collapse of protection." - @UNOCHA chief Tom Fletcher news.un.org/en/story/2026/…

Kävimme yhdessä ulkoministeri @elinavaltonen kanssa hyvän puhelinkeskustelun presidentti @ZelenskyyUa kanssa. Keskustelimme Ukrainan rintamatilanteesta, presidentti Zelenskyin matkasta Persianlahdelle ja Ukrainan puolustuksen tukemisesta.

The International Criminal Court @IntlCrimCourt was created in 1998 to bring perpetrators of genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and crimes of aggression to justice—beyond borders. ICC - a milestone in international accountability. #UNCharter

Congratulations to Peter Magyar and Tisza on their election victory. This is a result of great importance not just for Hungary but for Europe and all of those who believe in liberal democracy.

I spoke with FM of Iran @araghchi this morning. Finland welcomes the news of a ceasefire and a return to negotiations. We stand ready to support peace in the region and call for the respect of the security and human rights of all people, as enshrined in the UN Charter.

Very good phone call with the Iraqi FM @Fuad_Hussein1 on the current situation in Iraq and the Middle East. Iraq´s stability is crucial for the security of the entire region. The ceasefire between Iran and the United States is a welcome initial step towards lasting peace.

Yesterday, in my call with my Jordanian counterpart, His Excellency Ayman Safadi, I expressed Finland’s full solidarity with Jordan. We highly value Jordan’s constructive and stabilizing role in the region. We continue to support all diplomatic efforts towards peace in the region

Preventing childhood statelessness is about committing to principles, but also to making them reality in practice, stresses Finland's DPR Wong Hämäläinen at the #HRC61 side-event. #EndStatelessness

At the start of 2026, Finland has allocated 72 million euros to humanitarian aid. We recognize the vital role of ⁦@UNOCHA⁩ in mobilizing and coordinating humanitarian aid worldwide – join us in backing the hyper-prioritized plan to save #87MillionLives. #HumanitarianAid

🇫🇮 in today's #HRC61 statement: In a world shaped by rapid change, conflict, and new technologies, human rights, education, and critical thinking matter more than ever. Strong cooperation is essential to meet today’s challenges and build a better future together.

Lähi-idän alueellisen tilanteen kiristyminen on uhka kansainväliselle rauhalle ja turvallisuudelle ja koskettaa myös Eurooppaa. Kestävät ratkaisut löytyvät vain diplomatian, neuvottelujen ja kansainvälisen oikeuden kautta. Iran on omilla aiemmilla toimillaan heikentänyt alueen vakautta. Sen on sitouduttava vilpittömiin neuvotteluihin ydinohjelmaansa liittyen. Samalla ihmisoikeuksien kunnioittaminen ja tavallisten iranilaisten oikeus turvalliseen tulevaisuuteen on turvattava. Suomi seuraa tilanteen kehitystä tiiviisti ja on valmiudessa avustaa alueella olevia kansalaisiaan.

From Sahel’s heat to Helsinki’s winter. ❄️ EU Special Representative for the Sahel @JoaoCravinho visited Finland this week. Productive meetings on security, stability and improving the wellbeing of people across the Sahel – key issues for Europe and our shared neighbourhood.

Ambassador @ElinaKalkku at the #UNSC meeting on behalf of the Nordic 🇩🇰🇫🇮🇮🇸🇳🇴🇸🇪Countries: ”Rule of law is not optional luxury, it is a prerequisite for peace and stability and for the protection of human rights.” 🔗Full statement: finlandabroad.fi/web/un/current…

Welcome to visit the United Nations, Mr. Johannes Koskinen, Chair of Foreign Affairs Committee, Members of Finnish Parliament & the Development Policy Committee! Ambassador @ElinaKalkku, @MiiaRainne & @HelenaLaukko @UNAFinland present a broad program covering topical UN matters.

Among allies, issues are best resolved through discussion, not through pressure. Strengthening Arctic security together with allies is very important for Finland. This is also the purpose of the Danish-led and allied-coordinated action in Greenland. European countries stand united. We emphasize the principles of territorial integrity and sovereignty. We support Denmark and Greenland. Dialogue with the United States continues. Tariffs would undermine the transatlantic relationship and risk a dangerous downward spiral.

As the #US prepares to disengage from multiple international bodies, @antonioguterres stresses that the @UN will continue working with all partners to uphold peace, human rights, and sustainable development.

We repeat our call for the facilitation of unhindered access of humanitarian aid to Gaza. The UN, incl. UNRWA, must be able to continue their vital work in Gaza and the West Bank in accordance with international law and international humanitarian law. un.org/sg/en/content/…
