#Iraq ’s legislation criminalising same-sex relations is deeply disturbing. We call on Iraqi parliament to rescind this decision which violates #HumanRights .

Russia: Disregarding international law & rules, 🇷🇺continues to take measures against EU companies. Subsidiaries of Italian & German companies were put under 'temporary external management' by a RU firm. The EU calls on Russia to reverse these measures

BiH: latest legislative initiatives in Rep Srpska assembly would undermine the constitutional order, fundamental freedoms & 🇪🇺 path of 🇧🇦. The RS leadership should stop them. Any action against basic principles of BiH will have serious consequences.

Held a phone call with Iranian FM @Amirabdolahian this morning. Condemned the attack on #Israel in the strongest possible terms and urged to contribute to de-escalation. We cannot afford another front in the Middle East. Also discussed bilateral consular issues.

Extremely alarmed by reported drone attacks from #Iran against #Israel ! This is a new level of escalation in a situation which is already highly dangerous. Call on Iran and its proxies to stop adding fuel to the fire and to urgently reverse course.

I condem the violation of the premises of the Mexican Embassy in Quito, in a clear breach of the Vienna Convention of 1961. I call for respect of diplomatic international law.

Six dreadful months since #Hamas terrorists attacked  #Israel , causing intolerable human suffering for Israeli and Palestinian civilians. It's high time for a humanitarian pause! ❗️Hamas must release all hostages ❗️More aid must reach  #Gaza ❗️Humanitarian law is non-negotiable
