Today I spoke at the launch of a platform hosted by the 🇪🇺EU and @AfricanUnionUN for youth to shape the future of the UN:
👉Decisions today impact young people's futures tomorrow
👉Youth must be involved in UN decisions from the start - not just to advise but to set the agenda!

Election observation is #EUForeignPolicy in action — strengthening democratic processes, building trust, and supporting credible elections worldwide. The new agreement between the European Commission and the UK will deepen our cooperation on Election Observation Missions #EOM, amplifying this shared commitment to democracy.
A new step in EU–UK cooperation.
Today, the EU and the UK signed an Administrative Arrangement enabling UK participation in EU Election Observation Missions, reinforcing our shared commitment to democracy, human rights and free and fair elections worldwide. @EU_FPI

The Myanmar military continues to inflict immense suffering. The regime must immediately cease all violations & abuses of int'l human rights/humanitarian law. #EU fully supports the mandate of the SG's Special Envoy Julie Bishop, who briefed #UNGA today.

The media has ensured that Malawians were kept informed about the mandate of the EU EOM, the presence of its observers across the country, and the principles of independence, impartiality and non-interference that guide the mission’s work.

Politicians talk about aid cuts as though they have no real impact on the world. They are wrong
Aid is education for tens of millions.
Aid is healthcare.
Aid is employment.
Aid is government stability.
Aid is children not dying.
During today’s livestream on Starmer’s international aid cuts to fund defence, a viewer remarked, “Aid isn’t education.”
Here’s @RoryStewartUK response.
