Today, I urged governments, businesses, youth, activists and members of civil society to think big & be ambitious to get the #GlobalGoals back on track. This is not the time for incrementalism. This is the time for transformation.

In these troubled times, my message to the world from Lumbini - the birthplace of the Lord Buddah - is simple: Humanity has a choice. The path to peace is ours to take. Act now for peace.

Divisions are growing, tensions are flaring up & trust is eroding - raising the spectre of fragmentation & ultimately confrontation. My urgent appeal to the #G20: We cannot go on like this. We must come together and act together for the common good.

29 years since the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, we must never forget how easily hate speech turns to hate crime. Let us be ever vigilant – and always ready to act.

Women are still waiting for equal opportunities and equal pay. For equality under the law. For their work to be valued and their opinions to count. Gender equality is not a favour to women. It is fundamental to ensuring a better future for all.

The #GlobalGoals carry the hopes, rights & expectations of people everywhere. And now they need a rescue plan. Now is the time for leaders to keep their promise to build a world of health, progress & opportunity for all.

War in Lebanon could lead to further escalation involving outside powers. I fully support the proposal for a temporary ceasefire—allowing for the delivery of humanitarian relief & paving the way for the resumption of serious negotiations for a durable peace across the Blue Line. We must avoid a regional war at all costs.

My appeal to world leaders at #UNGA next week is clear: This is not a time for posturing or positioning. This is not a time for indifference or indecision. This is a time to come together for real, practical solutions.

The world is forgetting about the people of Sudan. Half of the country’s population needs lifesaving assistance. But they need more than humanitarian support. They need an end to the bloodshed. They need peace. The only path out of this horror is a political solution.

The benefits of making cities more environmentally friendly are enormous - reduced climate risks, more jobs & better health. Cities & towns are at the heart of #ClimateAction & central to our efforts to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees.

Women’s rights are under siege. Around the world, hard-won gains are being thrown into reverse. Now is the time for those of us who care about equality for women and girls to stand up and to speak out.

Many women & girls are facing a war on their fundamental rights at home & in their communities. We cannot accept a world in which grandmothers fear their granddaughters will enjoy fewer rights than they had. We must speak out, loud and clear: Not on our watch.

In a world of plenty, children are starving to death. That is unacceptable. Last year, the number of people on the cusp of famine doubled – to over 700,000. The global food crisis requires an urgent global response.

AI may feel intangible, but its footprint is not. Data centres already consume more electricity than most countries. I’m calling on every major AI company to measure & publicly disclose the full footprint of its systems & to commit to power every data centre with renewable energy by 2030.

No child should be a guinea pig for unregulated AI. That's why I am calling for an AI Child Safety Pledge built on three rules: safety testing & oversight, zero tolerance for abuse & crisis support systems. When a child is harmed, the answer must never be “the algorithm did it.”

I have two clear messages: First, to the United States & Israel: It’s high time to end this war that is risking to get out of control, causing immense suffering on civilians, with dramatic effects on the global economy & potentially tragic consequences, especially for the least developed countries. Second, my message to Iran: Stop attacking your neighbors, they were never parties to the conflict. The Security Council has condemned these attacks, has ordered them to stop, as it has order to open the Strait of Hormuz. The prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz causes enormous pain for so many people around the world who have nothing to do with this conflict. It’s time for the force of the law to prevail over the law of the force. It’s time for diplomacy to prevail over war. My remarks from the European Council in Brussels:

My message is clear: ‌ To the USA & Israel: It is high time to stop the war that is inflicting immense human suffering & triggering devastating economic consequences. ‌ To Iran: Stop attacking your neighbours. ‌ Conflicts end when leaders choose dialogue over destruction. ‌ That choice still exists. ‌ And it must be made now.

I strongly condemn the Israeli attacks in Qatar – a clear violation of the country’s sovereignty & territorial integrity. Qatar has played a positive role to achieve a ceasefire & the release of all hostages. Everyone must work towards achieving a permanent ceasefire, not destroying it.

In Antarctica, I saw for myself & heard from scientists how ice loss is accelerating in dangerous ways. Climate change is wreaking havoc. Fossil fuels are the main culprit. At #COP28, leaders must act to limit global temperature rise to 1.5°C & end the fossil fuel age.

For climate, this is the best of times & the worst of times. The worst – because climate impacts are intensifying & the energy crisis has exposed the deep risks of dependence on fossil fuels. The best – because the renewables revolution is well underway. We have the enormous opportunity – and responsibility - to turn this into a moment of resolve, fairness & shared progress. We can finally turn the page on fossil fuels & write a future powered by renewables & rooted in climate justice.
