‘My wife and I were greatly saddened to learn of the death of David Hockney O.M., a giant of the world of art and painting, a Yorkshireman through and through and a dear friend and inspiration to so many. David was one of life’s true originals; one who wore his genius as lightly as those beloved yellow Crocs of his that helped brighten Palace occasions. I trust they will see him tread safely into the hereafter as we mourn a man whose irrepressible charm, talent and constant innovation will be most sorely missed, but whose dazzling creativity lives on in galleries and museums around the world.’ Charles R

Putin said to all missions ‘leave Kyiv’. Instead, all 32 NATO Ambassadors and the Secretary General visit Ukraine. Our message is crystal clear: NATO’s support for Ukraine is unshaken #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦

Great to meet with @_OrbanAnita. An honour to make the first official incoming ministerial visit to Hungary in this role. Really encouraged by the steps Hungary is taking to restore the rule of law and support Ukraine. 1/2

As @UNSGSA, Her Majesty will address the importance of a financial system that helps all people meet their daily needs, strengthen resilience, invest in their futures — and the role institutions such as @EBRD can play in supporting efforts to advance financial health. #EBRDam

Taking a decisive step for justice 🇺🇦 We are joining the Special Tribunal to prosecute the crime of aggression against Ukraine and ratifying the International Claims Commission to ensure victims are compensated. Holding Russia accountable is the only path to peace.

Terwijl Poetin praat over een einde aan de oorlog tonen deze aanvallen opnieuw het tegenovergestelde aan. Wij zullen Oekraïne blijven steunen, en de druk op Rusland verder opvoeren. 2/2

Opnieuw doden en vele gewonden door een grote Russische luchtaanval op Kyiv. 675 drones en 56 raketten troffen woonwijken; een appartementencomplex stortte in. 1/2

The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Putin and his accomplices in the abduction of Ukrainian children. This is a global case – and it must have global consequences. Everyone who commits crimes against children must truly feel that this is wrong. Today, we have new sanctions against those who abduct children and try to normalize it. And the pressure on Russia must not ease. Sanctions work. And the world has power. Please use it right. From an address to the International Coalition for the Return of Ukrainian Children (3/3).

The Netherlands firmly condemns Russia’s deportation and forced adoption of Ukrainian children, alongside its systematic manipulation of information and inauthentic online behaviour. We welcome the UK’s sanctions against Russian disinformation & foreign interference networks. 1/2

Russia's deportation and forced adoption of Ukrainian children is a deliberate attempt to break Ukraine's future. Important that we agreed to impose new EU sanctions against those responsible. Countering this abhorrent practice is an absolute priority for the Netherlands. 1/2
