At Azerbaijan’s 3rd National Urban Forum, 1.000+ participants from 63 countries and 20+ city representatives. Thanks to @AnacludiaRossb1 for mentioning #IOM in #UNHabitat flagship program here. Migration- and Urban policies are siblings!

Warmest congratulations to Pope Leo XIV as he begins his pontificate. IOM welcomes his message of peace, humility, and dialogue. We look forward to deepening our partnership with the Holy See in advancing human dignity & protecting the rights of most vulnerable incl. migrants.

@rumeliobserver @HansGutbrod @PACE_News @iulibulai @FrankSchwabe Polarized? The word on the street is that the demos also have a fair share of GD voters, in line with 80% plus wanting to join EU

An excellent timely text by @HansGutbrod on 🇬🇪 … civil.ge/archives/642540 Key answers: is Georgia polarised? What are protests about? Does GD have support? And: what to do to avoid collapse of Georgian democracy? Look to @PACE_News @iulibulai @FrankSchwabe proposal: x.com/rumeliobserver… @Zourabichvili_S

Today, IOM🇲🇩 handed over @CanadaRomania-funded equipment to the Center for Strategic Communication and Countering Disinformation #StratCom.  The Head Ana Revenco and IOM CoM @ljlonnback met to share ongoing efforts to counter #disinformation and #hatespeech against 🇺🇦refugees.

Heading to Frankfurt am Main to meet with the vibrant Moldovan community there.

Excellent news from the Hill in DC tonight on the vote to support Ukraine 🇺🇦 This will bring much wanted aid to its fighting troops that are also fighting for our freedom. We are grateful to the people of the USA 🇺🇸 for their efforts. But now is also the time to remember that the EU 🇪🇺 now have to increase our own production of armaments, ammunition and supplies to aid Ukraine 🇺🇦 on a long term basis. Tonight’s vote show the necessity of this. We have to do our own homework as well.

Delighted to be with US Ambassador Logsdon at #MAC10 the Moldovan diaspora congress in Washington DC.

Migration isn't just a journey. It's a complex interplay of economic, social, political, and cultural dynamics. Comprehensive data 📊 on #migration across many sectors is key in understanding migration patterns to shape policies while bridging research with real-world impact.

Grateful for the steady leadership of Minister Efros on one of Moldova’s most crucial portfolios.

❤️Happy Mărțișor Day, from the Republic of Moldova! 🤍Mărțișor is the celebration of new beginnings and happiness. 🌷The IOM Moldova team wish you a blessed and warm spring!

Migration is a promise for a sustainable future. Re-energised after meeting with Chiefs of Mission and Heads of Office covering our largest and one of our most diverse and dynamic regions to discuss ways on how we can continue to build a sustainable future for all.

Many migrants face obstacles in accessing essential health services. It is only by protecting everyone’s rights that we can protect everyone’s health. #ZeroDiscrimination

Today, IOM🇲🇩, together with @StatePRM and 🇺🇸Embassy in #Moldova, handover important infrastructure projects in Otaci. The improvements help prevent the border crossing point from flooding and create an energy efficient supply of water for all residents of #Otaci. Thank you, 🇺🇸.

To celebrate the historical European Council decision to open accession negotiations with the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine, I met a flashmob of mostly young people in front of the @EUinMoldova building. Today we celebrate together! Moldova is European! Moldova este Europeană!

IOM Moldova supports dignified repatriation of Moldovans from #Gaza, the result of extraordinary international coordination and Moldovan/Romanian collaboration.

There is universal consensus on the progress achieved by Moldova on the 9 steps, affirms @eu_near Director General @GertJanEU. With 94% progress rate, it is undoubtedly the frontrunner for the #EUenlargement. Now, it's the time to revise the existing methodology and make things happen. As the DG highlighted the crucial work of think tanks regarding the enlargement, take a look at our template 2.0 👉 ceps.eu/ceps-publicati…
