Me sinto profundamente triste com o falecimento de Sebastião Salgado, ocorrido na manhã desta sexta-feira. Seu inconformismo com o fato de o mundo ser tão desigual e seu talento obstinado em retratar a realidade dos oprimidos serviu, sempre, como um alerta para a consciência de

Lamentamos profundamente o falecimento do fotógrafo brasileiro Sebastião Salgado. Mais do que um artista, Sebastião foi uma personalidade transformadora da nossa cultura. Seguiremos admirando seu legado e expressamos nossa solidariedade à sua família neste momento de dor.

Remember when...? Fast forward and #Anwar is now Prime Minister of #Malaysia and meeting Vladimir Putin in Moscow today @johans45 Wonder if Putin will travel to #Istanbul tomorrow...? @ZelenskyyUa

Michelle and I send our congratulations to a fellow Chicagoan, His Holiness Pope Leo XIV. This is a historic day for the United States, and we will pray for him as he begins the sacred work of leading the Catholic Church and setting an example for so many, regardless of faith.

We deeply regret the US tariffs imposed on Europe. Tariffs are taxes. They are bad for business, and even worse for consumers. Today Europe takes strong but proportionate countermeasures. We remain ready to engage in dialogue ↓

BREAKING: A video is going viral for showing just how stupid Trump’s tariffs on Canada are based on the importance of our lumber imports. EVERY American should see this.

WOW. Watch this. 🤯

(3/3) With decades of Western policy consensus callously swept aside, European nations must now do everything within their power to preserve Ukraine’s sovereignty and repel Russia’s aggression.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

“The future of Europe should not be decided in Washington or Moscow”. President Emmanuel Macron delivered his address to the French people today, here's a thread summarising his speech. 1/11

Let’s talk about the word ‘genocide’. As a former @BBCNews journalist, I can tell you that it’s rarely heard across coverage of Gaza. But the list below shows us that the editorial/evidential bar for incorporating the term has been met. Orgs like @Amnesty & @MSF are using it. 1/5

@RoryStewartUK Ok muppet: They have nukes, they have a space program, and they supply a *much needed resource* to the continent of Europe…necessarily because of EU plant denuclearization. The size of their GDP is irrelevant if EU is buying billions of dollars of their stuff and keeping

5/ Putin’s bluff went wrong when he failed to sweep through Ukraine. Since then Putin has had to flatter North Korea for its soldiers, Iran for his drones, and follow the direction of Beijing for his economic survival.

1/ Trump has been conned by Putin. Russia isn’t a global superpower—its GDP (~$2 trillion) is smaller than Italy’s and about 1/15 the size of the US. 🧵

Three years ago, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, continuing the aggression it started in 2014 with the occupation of Crimea. Despite the Kremlin's expectations, #Ukraine 🇺🇦 has endured and continues to fight for its freedom and independence. #StandForJustPeace

لم تبدأ حرب روسيا ضد أوكرانيا في عام 2022، بل إنها مستمرة منذ 11 عامًا. في فبراير 20، 2014، شنت روسيا أعمالها العدوانية المسلحة الأولى ضد أوكرانيا بغزو شبه جزيرة #القرم. ولابد من استعادة وحدة أراضي أوكرانيا. القرم هي #أوكرانيا! 🇺🇦

I am grateful to @EmmanuelMacron for his clear vision and our joint efforts to achieve peace. Peace must be real, not just a word—it cannot mean Ukraine’s capitulation or collapse. It must be just, reliable, and lasting, and this can only be achieved through strong and long-term

Tomorrow, Arab leaders will meet in an emergency summit to develop a plan to counter President Trump’s proposal for an American takeover of Gaza. But what might this plan look like? Carnegie scholars @HamzawyAmr and Nathan Brown asked this question when the war began – and
