We urge all UNSC members to ensure that Russia's leadership accepts a ceasefire and engages in good faith.
Enough is enough. The time for a ceasefire is now.

Back on the saddle and over the George Washington bridge, on a beautiful NY day, with old law school buddy Jonathan, fighting off a nasty case of the jet lag — bliss!

🇪🇺Amb. Lambrinidis on Russia’s threats against Latvia during Ukraine #UNSC debate: “Russia’s threatening a UNSC member and an EU member state in this Chamber reveals a desperate aggressor that has abandoned all pretence of reason, measure, modesty or dignity.”

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.

🇪🇺 Joined today’s UN stakeout reaffirming support for UNSC Res 2817 & condemning Iran’s actions.
Closure of Strait of Hormuz threatens global security, trade & energy markets. Navigational freedoms must be upheld—no unlawful restrictions or tolls. Urgent reopening is essential.

The 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon is excellent news. It must now be implemented and verified on the ground.
It is essential that Israel and Lebanon engage in meaningful negotiations that deliver concrete results - for the sake of their peoples and the prospect of a sustainable peace.
The EU will continue to support Lebanon.
Empowering the authorities to disarm Hezbollah is the only sustainable solution for restoring Lebanon’s stability.

I welcome the announced 10 day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon, mediated by President Trump.
This is a relief, as this conflict has already claimed far too many lives.
Now, we need not just a temporary pause, but a path to permanent peace.
Europe will continue to call for the full respect of Lebanon’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
And we will keep supporting the Lebanese people through substantial humanitarian aid.

Peacekeepers, protected under int'l law, must never be the target of attacks.
