@KZiabari Good for you...

Is this the human dignity the government in #Iran boasts of extending to women post-1979? And isn't it surreal that Shia clerics still theorize this horror in the name of moral standards? And why was she arrested to begin with?

@baysontheroad hmmmm

80 countries sign up to #Ukraine peace declaration. Interesting to compare to #UN General Assembly vote in March 2022 (I know wording is different) - but then 143 nations voted with #Ukraine

@giacomonyt Unbelievable!

Republicans who fled the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol today applaud the guy who extols the insurrectionists and was at the heart of it all.

@RichardGowan1 Good idea, but Dream On.

#UNSC nerds suddenly pointing suggestively at Article 16 of the Rome Statute.

@betulyuruk Great!

Exciting news to share. I'll be joining CNBC Türkiye in June as their New York Correspondent and US Representative. Can't wait to bring you the latest updates and insights.

@maggieNYT Boooo

After months of publicly dodging but privately saying he liked the idea of a 16-week federal ban, Trump posts video on Truth Social again praising end of Roe v Wade, saying it’s up to states to decide on specific bans, doesn’t support specific week limit, supports exceptions.

@amanpour @DmytroKuleba The older you get, the more perspective you have...

A tenuous moment here in Ukraine, with US aid still stalled in Congress. Ukraine’s soldiers “are making miracles,” Foreign Minister @DmytroKuleba tells me, “but the reason they have to sacrifice themselves and die is because someone is still debating a decision.”

@KZiabari @timeshighered @Columbia Please ignore these lists; every university is different and the rankings don't mean that much.

In September, @timeshighered released the best US universities ranking. I'm not biased, but @Columbia being ranked 17th globally is puzzling. Consider any evaluation parameter, and it fares extremely well. At least a couple of its schools are #1 worldwide timeshighereducation.com/student/best-u…

@SergiyKyslytsya I hope so!

Senate Passes Defense Bill The $886 billion legislation is the product of bipartisan negotiations between the House and Senate The vote was 87 to 13 to approve the legislation, which would expand the Defense Department’s ability to compete with China and Russia in hypersonic and nuclear weapons, implement components of a key Indo-Pacific security partnership with Britain and Australia, and direct hundreds of millions of dollars in military assistance to Ukraine and Israel. The Ukraine and Israel programs authorized by the bill are distinct from a $111 billion spending bill to send additional weapons to those countries, among other expenditures, that is currently stalled in Congress. nytimes.com/2023/12/13/us/…

@annepenketh excellent article and so so sad...

must read here:

@wachteltweet @PoppyHarlowCNN @ericahillcnn @SecBlinken Looking good...

video.snapstream.net/Play/9jGAO1mgQ… Good to join @PoppyHarlowCNN & @ericahillcnn to analyze the significance of @SecBlinken visit to #China. #Washington and #Beijing must start piecing together a vision for a future global order that respects both nations.

@deadlinepundit Strange and dumb

demented.

@RichardGowan1 One can only hope it is not Weimar.

This is a bad sentence in a good article.

@betulyuruk Great!

Einstein vizesi olarak bilinen ABD’de üstün yetenek alanında yaptığım başvurum kabul edildi. Uluslararası alanda gazeteciliğime inanan, güvenen, aralarında Pulitzer ödüllü, Vietnam’da savaş muhabirliği yapan ilk kadın gazetecilerden birinden tutunda +++

@HenochGabriel @KZiabari @Diplomat_APAC Cannot find your Diplomat article. Kindly email it to me. Cheers

🚨 NEW PIECE 🚨 I am glad to announce that my article has been published on @Diplomat_APAC, which is one of my favorite magazines ever! I analyze the implications of Lula's foreign policy toward China on the prospect of Brazil in the Quad Plus. thediplomat.com/2023/04/lula-i…

@LauraTrevelyan Best of luck!

A new chapter is starting for me. After thirty incredible years at the BBC, I’m leaving tomorrow - to join the growing movement for reparatory justice for the Caribbean. Thank you to my beloved colleagues and to our amazing audience. I couldn’t be more grateful to you all.

@NikaMelkozerova Great story and wonderful archive. Stay safe...

@KarenPierceUK @RoyalFamily Great. Did the boys join you too? And you look fabulous...

Honoured to be at Windsor Castle this morning as King Charles III gave my husband Charles Roxburgh his award, Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath (KCB).
