Mr. Evangelos Sekeris, at the Mission of Greece yesterday. 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽 We look forward to continuing the conversation and our collaboration before Greece’s UNSC Presidency in May.

Say what you will about Trump’s shameful “performance” today, but that debacle was instigated by Vance. I suspect Trump was hoping for something different, but Vance seemed set on blowing it up from the start.

So, there you have it. The United States voting with Russia, Belarus, & North Korea, against #Ukraine and NATO allies. Even China abstained. This is not isolationism. This is taking sides, the side of the aggressors.

Merz just said on German TV that the primary priority of his government will be to ensure that Europe can achieve full strategic independence from the United States in the defence against Russia. Merz was once a die hard Atlanicist. Now, after Trump he is a Gaullist. Extraordinary.

Big new @crisisgroup.org report on #Haiti from my LatAm colleagues ⬇️ As part of their rich analysis, they flag the poor representation of women in the current transitional arrangements. (1/4) www.crisisgroup.org/latin-americ...

At #MSC2025, we hosted a roundtable with @munsecconf.bsky.social on a new two-state vision for Israel & Palestine.A Land for All (ALFA) movement proposes a confederal model: “two states, one homeland”—shifting from division to cooperation. Grateful to May Pundak & Omar M. Dajani for their insights.

Much to reflect upon as we depart @munsecconf.bsky.social today. We’ve entered a critical, dangerous moment in the transatlantic relationship. One bright spot was our @ipinst.bsky.social lunch on a new vision for peace in the Middle East. Difficult days ahead but #AnotherWayIsPossible

Two ministerial events today @munsecconf.bsky.social on Israel-Palestine, Q from audience: where is civil society? Tomorrow @ipinst.bsky.social hosts a side event with joint Israeli Palestinian movement ALFA: 2 states One Homeland . #Peace will come from grassroots.

The disruption that is happening today will yield a new order, says #Ghana President John Mahana @munsecconf.bsky.social

Beginning day @munsecconf.bsky.social w/ Econ Townhall w/ President of #Ghana, Celso Amorim, & SG @unctad.bsky.social . Takeaway: US trade war will ⬆️ South-South trade. Brazil & Africa won’t mourn old system. They must build new systems.

We highly recommend y’all crack open a copy of the U.S. Constitution before you break anymore laws…

It was an honor for @ipinst.bsky.social to host the screening of There Is Another Way. A powerful reminder that if former Israeli&Palestinian combatants can transcend hate, hold space for each others pain, and humanize each other in todays context of destruction, we all can @berghoffnd.bsky.social

File under silver linings? The stars may be aligned for real progress this year on maritime security at the UN Security Council. Read @ipinst.bsky.social GO theglobalobservatory.org/2025/02/with...

There is no coherence to US policy. Reductions in food aid have an established record of stimulating increased migration flows, something this administration is working to suppress. I know, #StatingTheObvious

This seems pretty clear: As USAID was established by Congress, “the President does not have the authority to abolish it; congressional authorization would be required to abolish, move, or consolidate USAID.” #HeDoesNotHaveAuthority crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/...

AI event @gzeromedia.com @microsoft.com #AI is moving at the speed of light and US disruption is causing high anxiety. Panel advice: stay true to your values & play long game.

(2/3) On the panel "The Innovation Imperative: Governing Technology for Global Peace & Security," with The Stimson Center, @alupel.bsky.social spoke on need to 1) maintain human control #PeopleCentered 2) take care to avoid unintended consequences & 3) embed values in new systems from the start.

A very convincing take on why ceding control of US payments system is a clear and present danger to American democracy.

This discussion w/ Combatants for #Peace, a joint Israeli-Palestinian movement, was among the most inspiring in my near 20 years w/ @ipinst.bsky.social While peace seems further than ever, these brave men & women are modeling a better future. They need to be heard: www.ipinst.org/2025/01/film...

Great discussion today on the 2025 #Peacebuilding Architecture Review w/ UN PBSO, & co-facilitators #Egypt #Slovenia @ipinst Key take away: we don’t need to reinvent the wheel, but the car needs fuel! Consensus on push for 💪🏼 PBC. We must seize opportunity for a more robust & effective system.

I tell @thenationalnews.com that Syria's new leaders will need to believe there are "concrete benefits" from working with the UN. www.thenationalnews.com/news/us/2025...
