As water is shared in blessing this #Songkran, may it wash away the past and carry forward renewal and new beginnings. May the New Year bring peace, health, abundance and joy for all. Happy Songkran 🌺

I just spoke again with Prime Minister-elect @magyarpeterMP. Hungary has returned to the very heart of Europe, where it has always belonged. This is, above all, a moment for the Hungarian people. For their voice, their dignity, and their future in a safe, prosperous Hungary inside a strong Europe. We discussed immediate priorities. There is swift work to be done to restore, realign and reform. Restore the rule of law. Realign with our shared European values. And reform, to unlock the opportunities offered by European investments.

FOSTERING THE FUTURE: Capitol Hill I look forward to working with Congress tomorrow to advance new legislation designed to protect and empower individuals from the foster care community. Tomorrow’s bipartisan roundtable assembles a group of leaders with a common mission: to strengthen America’s next generation.

Bassam was displaced from eastern Khan Younis to Mawasi with his family and no income. The meals WCK delivers have become a lifeline. To supplement what he can, Bassam grows cauliflower, peppers, and eggplant in whatever small patches of space he can find next to their tent—making the most of what little is available. #ChefsForGaza

Before outside help arrived, Oʻahu's North Shore was already feeding itself. WCK is proud to stand alongside Hawaiian communities who did not hesitate to support neighbors impacted by devastating flooding. Read in @HawaiiNewsNow how local partners stepped up and how WCK helped scale up efforts. bit.ly/3QjS5Al?utm_so… #ChefsForHawaii

After weeks of destruction & distress, it is clear that there is no military solution to the current conflict in the Middle East. I call for resumption of talks for an agreement to be reached. The ceasfire must absolutely be preserved. All violations must cease. All parties to the conflict must respect the freedom of navigation, including in the Strait of Hormuz, in line with international law.

Warm thanks to @UNReliefChief for your wonderful presentation and dialogue at our Global NRC Meeting. Your extraordinary leadership of international humanitarian work in these challenging times is most appreciated.

Three years into the war in #Sudan, families still face widespread suffering. Now, Red Sea disruptions are driving up the cost of food and deepening hunger. WFP is prioritizing the hardest‑hit areas. More support is urgently needed. 🔗ow.ly/rmLi50YIFMj

Productive discussion with parliamentarians at the German @Bundestag. We discussed @WHO reforms to make the organization even more effective and focused on our core mandate. We also discussed strengthening collaboration to advance #HealthForAll. I thank #Germany for its continued support and leadership in global health and look forward to continuing this partnership.

A guerra no Oriente Médio causou impacto no preço dos combustíveis no mundo inteiro. O Governo do Brasil não ficou parado. Zeramos impostos, ajudamos a reduzir custos e aumentamos a fiscalização para evitar aumentos abusivos. Com essas e outras medidas, somos um dos países menos afetados. Se vir preço abusivo, denuncie: 0800 970 0267. Governo do Brasil. Do lado do povo brasileiro.

Tomorrow marks 3 years of senseless war in Sudan. A country torn apart by greed & violence. Exposed by failure & apathy from international community. 34m people - two thirds - need humanitarian aid: world's largest humanitarian crisis. My statement: bit.ly/4mqjIUi

“We’ve never really created cultural institutions in this country that deal honestly with the harms and legacy of slavery,” says Bryan Stevenson of @eji_org. Their new site at Montgomery Square “invite[s] people to have a deeper appreciation of what happened here in Montgomery between 1955 & 1965, a decade that we believe changed the world.”

“It took me back to my graduate studies and to the Investiture Crisis in the early Middle Ages - a time when rulers took on popes for power and authority.” — @peterfrankopan on the President vs the Pope: @peterfrankopan/note/p-194063225?utm_source=notes-share-action" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@peterfrankopa…

Yesterday, I spoke with Iranian President Massoud Pezeshkian, as well as with U.S. President Donald Trump. I urged the resumption of the negotiations suspended in Islamabad, the clearing up of misunderstandings, and the avoidance of any further escalation. It is essential, in particular, that the ceasefire be strictly respected by all parties and that it include Lebanon. It is equally important that the Strait of Hormuz be reopened unconditionally, without restrictions or tolls, as soon as possible. Under these conditions, negotiations should be able to resume quickly, with the support of the key parties concerned. France and the United Kingdom will also host a conference in Paris this Friday, bringing together by videoconference non-belligerent countries ready to contribute, alongside us, to a multilateral and purely defensive mission aimed at restoring freedom of navigation in the strait when security conditions allow.

The conflict in Ethiopia's Amhara region continues to expand with civilians bearing the brunt. Now 3 health workers have been killed. International humanitarian law clearly forbids all such attacks: healthcare workers are #NotATarget, and hospitals are not battlegrounds.

75 years ago, IOM began where recovery and opportunity met. Labor migration wasn’t designed on paper - it emerged from human need. That founding purpose continues to shape how we work today. storyteller.iom.int/gallery/first-…
