I bid farewell to Amb. @olivierjmaes as he concludes his tenure as Permanent Representative of @LuxembourgUN in New York. On behalf of the Independent Institution on Missing Persons in Syria (IIMP), I would like to express my deep gratitude. As penholder of the resolution that created the @IIMPSyria, 🇱🇺#Luxembourg played a decisive role in turning the hopes of Syrian families into a concrete institution dedicated to truth, with a victim-centered approach. We thank Amb. Maes for his dedication, support and partnership, and we extend our warmest wishes on his new responsibilities. All the best, Olivier — and thank you for everything.

1/ The unauthorized entry by Israeli Security Forces into the @UNRWA Kalandia Training Centre in occupied East Jerusalem is unacceptable & a clear violation of Israel’s obligations under international law.   The protection & inviolability of UN premises must be guaranteed.
UN premises are inviolable. The forcible and unauthorised entry of Israeli forces into UNRWA’s Kalandia Training Centre is deeply alarming and threatens access to education and training for young #Palestine Refugees. Their opportunities and future must be protected. Full UNRWA statement: unrwa.org/newsroom/official-…

Luxembourg notes with deep concern the latest sanctions against officials of the ICC. Such measures threaten the Court’s independence & undermine the intl. rules-based order. We reaffirm our unwavering support for the ICC & its essential role in the global fight against impunity.

1/ How long will we continue to tolerate this kind of behaviour from 🇮🇱 politicians? Once again, it reflects a profound lack of respect, dignity and humanity among members of the government.
