.Mayor Karen Bass is claiming that "things in LA... are calm." This is blatantly FALSE. As rioters have escalated their assaults on our DHS law enforcement and activists’ behavior on the streets becomes increasingly dangerous, the federal government is calling in the California National Guard for additional support to ensure the safety of all citizens, law enforcement and public property.show more

During an Israeli military operation last week the water... and sewage network in Nur Shams camp in the #WestBank were destroyed. UNRWA sanitation workers have stepped up to fix these systems, which are vital for the wellbeing of the 14,000 Palestine Refugees who live in the camp. As always, #UNRWAworks to fulfil the mandate given to us by the UN General Assembly - the international community - whatever the challenges. Our office in the camp was also bulldozed. The building, which was the hub of our work there, is now unusable and will have to be demolished. In Nur Shams and across the region, our services encompass learning for children, health, sanitation, and social protection. We will continue to deliver on our mandate.show more

During a meeting with President of Türkiye Recep Tayyip... Erdoğan in Istanbul, we discussed bilateral relations between our countries, as well as the situation in Europe and the Middle East. It is important that joint and coordinated actions strengthen the protection of life and help deliver greater security to people in every part of the world. We agreed on new steps in security cooperation. This primarily concerns areas where we can support Türkiye – expertise, technology, and experience. There is firm political readiness to work together, and our teams will finalize the details in the coming days. We discussed practical steps to implement joint projects in developing gas infrastructure, as well as opportunities for joint development of gas fields. I am grateful to the President and the people of Türkiye for their consistent support for our independence and territorial integrity. We value our close cooperation over all these years, which enables us to work on truly significant projects that can strengthen our entire region.show more

These are the faces of successful conservation work. African... wild dogs are critically endangered — fewer than 7,000 remain across all of Africa — and as part of our field work, we closely monitor local populations. Our pilot and SWT/KWS Anti-Poaching Team spotted this pack during an aerial patrol last week. The team landed and went to have a closer look — as you can see, the dogs were keen to investigate us, too! Besides a few pesky burrs, this pack is thriving and in peak health.

We discussed high-level diplomatic contacts, defense partnership, as well as economic cooperation in the energy sector, the oil and gas industry, and agriculture. I am grateful to Azerbaijan for its support for Ukraine, its energy and humanitarian assistance, and our constructive dialogue.show more

This afternoon I spent some time over at Parkesdale... Farms in Dover to discuss the impacts of the recent cold snap on our farming community. Food security is national security. As a state, we have a duty look out for those who do the work to put food on the table and assist them in hardening their crops for when disaster strikes. I’m grateful to the Parke family for showing me around today and for all of our farmers who are putting in long hours to combat this recent weather and protect our food supply.show more

MacArthur Park Update #5 Last night, DEALosAngeles and LAPD... HQ conducted a joint narcotics operation in the MacArthur Park area and it sent a clear message: drug dealers are not welcome in our communities. Six individuals were arrested on suspicion of narcotics sales. Federal and state laws were enforced. This is part of a sustained, coordinated effort to dismantle the open-air drug markets that have plagued Los Angeles for too long. I want to commend our federal agents and the men and women of LAPD for their professionalism and dedication. The people of Los Angeles deserve safe parks, safe streets, and safe neighborhoods. We are delivering on that promise. Law and order is being restored in Los Angeles.show more

During a meeting with the Federal Minister for Foreign... Affairs of Germany, Johann Wadephul Johann Wadephul, we had a detailed discussion on Ukraine’s path toward EU membership. The current blockages are purely political, and I am grateful to Germany for its support. The opening of clusters will certainly add momentum to progress across all areas of European integration and reforms. This should be the driving force for further joint work and coordination. A united Europe clearly has enough strength for this. I also shared the results of my visit to the Middle East and the system for protecting lives that Ukraine has offered to the countries of the region. We are ready to develop this kind of cooperation together with our partners in Europe who have stood with us from the very beginning.show more

The wife of a fisherman who went missing at... sea wrote a devastating plea to her community in hopes of finding him. Deborah Billmaier's husband, Brandon, 33, and his uncle, Randall Spivey, 57, left for a bottom fishing trip from Fort Myers, Florida, on Friday morning. Billmaier expected her husband home by late afternoon the same day. But their empty boat has been recovered, and they are still nowhere to be found. During the three days they have been missing, she launched search efforts to bring her husband and his uncle back home. In her heartbreaking post, Billmaier begged loved ones to come together in prayer and in action. 'I am heartbroken posting this,' she wrote on Saturday. 'My husband Brandon went out fishing yesterday with his uncle off the coast of Fort Myers. They left early in the morning on Friday Dec 19th and were meant to come back that afternoon.'show more

Today, I hosted the first meeting of a special... panel on child safety online. For decades, we have made the real world safer for children and we must do the same in the digital world. The positive opportunities that technology offers cannot come at the cost of their safety, health or happiness. In Europe, tech platforms already have a responsibility to ensure the safety of users. But we must also do more to protect and empower our young people online. This is the aim of the special panel. We will work intensely with experts and stakeholders, including our youth, to forge a strong and realistic European approach to keep our children safe in the digital age. By the summer, the special panel will publish its recommendations for further action.show more

🐣 Easter is a time for family, love, and... togetherness. But this year, thousands of Ukrainian children won’t be celebrating at home. They were stolen by Russia — taken from their families, their homes, and their homeland. Today, we launch the international Easter campaign #ChildrenAreNonNegotiable to remind the world that there can be no just and lasting peace without the return of every Ukrainian child. The sweater in this video is more than just clothing — it’s a symbol. A symbol of the children who were abducted and of our commitment to bring them back. Across the world, hundreds of leaders, public figures, and celebrities are posting photos in this sweater to say one thing loud and clear: the fate of Ukrainian children is not up for negotiation. Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Russia has carried out a systematic campaign to erase Ukrainian identity by abducting children, placing them in Russian families, and brainwashing them into becoming something they are not. It is a war crime — recognized as such by the International Criminal Court, which has issued arrest warrants for Vladimir Putin and Maria Lvova-Belova. These children have been used as weapons — to weaken Ukraine and threaten the security of Europe. But we will not allow this to be their fate. To everyone joining this campaign: thank you. Your voice matters. Together, we will bring kids home. Because children are not bargaining chips. Children are non-negotiable. #BringKidsBackshow more
