Excellencies, Distinguished Delegates, It is an honour to address this Biennial Summit. We gather at a moment when the 2030 Agenda is in peril. It is estimated that we need to close a financing gap of $4 trillion annually if we are to meeting the Sustainable Development Goals. A...

#WATCH | Kathmandu, Nepal: On Nepal formally approaching UN-backed Fund for Responding to Loss and Damage (FRLD) for urgent support, with recovery costs estimated in the range of $4–7 billion, Nepal Foreign Minister Shisir Khanal says, "Paris Agreement and Loss & Damage Fund are part of broader global agreements. We hope to see global community coming together to strengthen the fund. But as of today, we all know the funds have not been adequate. In global platforms, we continue to champion for the funds to be made adequate and community of the world should come together to strengthen that intiative. For this particular purpose, we have already initiated to seek some fund of about 20 million dollars right now. But that is significantly less than what we would need for rehabilitation and reconstruction effort. Currently we are doing a rapid assessment and then we will do post-disaster need assessment which will take a few weeks...We do feel that actual cost may be in billions. We would need the support of global community at this point." He further says, "The fund is extremely inadequate and we want global community to support and strengthen that mechanism, having a global mechanism would support all of us in our time of need..."

With developing countries facing $11.7 trillion in external debt and a $4 trillion SDG financing gap, the urgency is clear. The world does not need us to repeat promises, it needs action. At the 2026 ECOSOC Forum on Financing for Development Follow-up, I stressed that we need to deliver on the promises already made, in particular the 280 actions proposed by the Sevilla Commitment need to be translated into concrete outcomes.

We need better transport and logistics. We need more capacity to move large volumes of goods. We need to move faster with the modernization of our roads and railways. We need military mobility that improves our defense capability. We need more storage facilities, more renewables, development of region’s critical minerals, stronger trade links and stronger manufacturing cooperation. We need to build more interconnectors between our energy systems. And of course we need to bring much more investment into the Carpathian region, which is a natural European gateway for routes coming from the South Caucasus and Asia through the Black Sea. These routes are active today, and they will remain active in the future. From the opening speech at the Inaugural C8 Summit in Ukraine. (2/3)

The Russian army has turned our cities and villages in the Donetsk region and beyond into ruins. And this is exactly what we are fighting to stop. We are fighting against death – the death that Russia is bringing to our land. We must not allow Russia to blur reality or mislead the world. Moscow must be forced into diplomacy. We need a ceasefire. We need real peace. We need real security. We must use every method available to achieve this – our front line and our defense, our production and technology, our work to build a real security architecture. We must be effective in all of it. I said this in my address to the participants of the Ramstein meeting. I thank everyone who is helping. Glory to Ukraine!

“We must redefine our approach to partnerships. Too often, global cooperation is not balanced. We must move away from outdated practices that exclude the majority of the world. For multilateral engagements to be effective, they will need to be tailored to delivering universal, measurable and timely results, not promises. If we are serious about social development, then our solutions must serve the needs of all countries, not just a few.” President Kagame | #SocialSummit2025

🚨 Britain and the EU are to commit to the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) at this month’s post-Brexit summit, a leaked draft agreement has revealed. The statement says the UK and EU are “committed” to not only UN agreements but also the ECHR The leaked draft also steers clear of the term “illegal” migration, referring to it instead as “irregular” migration, which has previously sparked criticism of a softening in the approach to border control. The joint statement is being drawn up for the summit on May 19th. Read it below. 8. We recognise the shared challenge of irregular migration and the need to work across the whole route to address it. We note too the importance of securing our collective borders, while remaining committed to ensuring international protection for those who need it. 9. We agreed that, in an increasingly contested and volatile world, our shared commitment to multilateralism is vital. We recognised the importance of upholding international law, and are committed to the UN Charter, the Helsinki Decalogue, the implementation of the UN pact for the future, and subsequent OSCE commitments and the ECHR. We agreed to strengthen cooperation to tackle illicit finance, corruption and kleptocracy. We will continue supporting the UN Secretary-General's UN80 initiative to deliver ambitious reform efforts; and upholding democracy, human rights and the rule of law. We recognise our shared commitment to climate security and will strengthen cooperation on international aspects of the issue. We recognise that the climate and nature crises are existential threats to global prosperity and security. We remain committed to keeping the Paris Agreement goal of limiting global temperature rise to 1.5°C within reach and to implementing the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework targets to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2030.

We continue to work on the first Global Peace Summit, which has the potential to start the path to just peace. We are working with the Swiss side on this. Today, we agreed on the final details, and we will continue to work tirelessly to ensure that as many leaders and countries as possible attend the Summit. This is a matter of principle. The world is capable of stopping any aggressor. If the world works together and by the rules of a global majority, no aggression will be able to withstand such global pressure. Together, we must force Russia to make peace. There will be a lot of work in the coming weeks, including behind closed doors with partners, to ensure that the Summit is truly meaningful.

At the 21st Extraordinary AU Summit in Luanda, I reaffirmed Ghana’s stance: African ownership of peace and security must be matched by African ownership of its financing. We must move from words to action to build a sustainable and self-reliant peace architecture for our continent.

South Africa’s G20 Presidency has been a historic milestone; not only for our nation but for Africa as a whole. For the first time, the G20 was hosted on African soil, placing our continent at the very heart of global decision-making. As President of the G20, South Africa was uniquely positioned to champion the priorities of emerging market economies and to advance Africa’s development agenda within the G20 framework. Our Presidency was not merely a moment in time, it was a catalyst, a launchpad for inclusive innovation, sustainable development, and African-led global collaboration. We sought to build on the developmental agendas advanced by Indonesia, India, and Brazil, while aligning with Africa’s own vision in Agenda 2063: The Africa We Want. #G20SouthAfrica #TheAfricaWeWant

We are preparing for the first, inaugural Peace Summit in June. Our team works with the teams of our key partners to ensure that the Summit is truly global. We can certainly say that countries from all continents will be represented, from various parts of the world and with different perspectives on global development. They are all, however, in agreement that the UN Charter and foundational international conventions are binding documents for all countries, including countries like Russia, where insanity reigns. The global majority must force Russia to make peace, and it can do it. The path to just peace can start in June.

Pioneers, the Revolution Is in Our Hands! 🌏 We are living in a historic moment! Pi Network is not just another cryptocurrency – it is a global movement that can forever transform the world’s financial system. But for this to happen, we must act with intelligence, unity, and determination. We are millions of Pioneers across the planet, connected by a single ideal: building a decentralized, fair, and accessible future for all. No government, bank, or financial elite can dictate the value of Pi. We are the force driving this revolution! The True Value of Pi Is in Our Hands! The GCV of $314,159 is not just a number – it is a symbol of our vision, our confidence, and our mission. Pi is worth what we believe and make happen. If we want to see Pi shine, we must act now: Say NO to exchanges that try to manipulate Pi’s value! Withdraw and protect your coins. Refuse to sell your Pi for unfair prices! We determine its value. Use Pi in real transactions! The more we use it, the stronger it becomes. Spread the word, encourage others, make history! The more people believe, the more powerful it gets. Create scarcity! The harder it is to obtain Pi, the more valuable it will be. The World Is Watching – Let’s Show Them Our Strength! The early days of Bitcoin were filled with uncertainty. Many doubted it. Today, it is a global phenomenon! Now, we stand before an even greater moment: the birth of a cryptocurrency that is truly accessible to all. But Pi’s future will not be written by speculators. It will be written by US! The decision is in our hands. We can allow our dream to be manipulated, or we can change history and make Pi a global powerhouse! If every Pioneer acts with faith, strategy, and commitment, the GCV of $314,159 will not be a wish – it will be an undeniable reality! Together, we are unstoppable! The future is now!

🇷🇺 "We don't need anything that belongs to others." Vladimir Putin stated that Russia will only agree to “a peace option that will ensure peace for a long historical perspective.” Today, the President met with the wives of the special operation participants and members of the Fatherland Defenders Foundation. In response to the phrase "we must not give in to anyone, we must go to the end" from the wife of a deceased SVO veteran, Putin spoke about the terms of the ceasefire in Ukraine: "We are not going to do this. We must choose for ourselves a peace option that would suit us and ensure peace for our country for a long-term historical perspective. We need an option that would ensure stable development of our country in conditions of peace and security. We do not need anything that belongs to others, but we will not give up our own either." The president also stated during the meeting that Russia does not send conscripts to combat zones. - FRWL

Some of today’s economic policies, at both national and global levels, constitute a war on the poor – and on their human rights. The global financial architecture must be reformed to provide long-term, low-cost financing and an effective safety net for all countries in need.

‼️A great injustice is being conducted against the world's poorest people. ‼️ While developed countries in the Global North continue to expand fossil fuel use for their own citizens, these same governments, often backed by NGOs, pressure global development banks to withhold financing from Global South countries for projects that would provide access to clean cooking fuels like LPG. At the heart of this campaign is a critique of what we call "carbon colonialism": a new form of climate injustice in which the poorest are asked to sacrifice the most, while the richest continue to expand the very emissions infrastructure they refuse to allow in Africa. There is no denying the urgency of decarbonisation. But if we do not distinguish between fossil fuels that lock in emissions for decades and those that offer a short-term bridge to health, dignity, and development, we risk deepening existing inequalities while doing nothing to save the planet.

ELON MUSK: "With Robotics and AI, this is really the path to abundance for all. If you say people often talk about solving global poverty, essentially, how do we make give everyone a very high standard of living? I think the only way to do this is AI and robotics. I mean this, we need to be very careful with AI. We need to be very careful with robotics. We don't want to find ourselves in a James Cameron movie. We don't want to be a Terminator, obviously. But if you have ubiquitous AI that is essentially free or close to it, and ubiquitous robotics, then you will have an explosion in the global economy and expansion the global economy that is truly beyond all precedent."
