Thank you Anna-Lena Baerbock @unpga.bsky.social for your leadership. The world needs a UN that delivers - human rights, not least women’s rights, are central to that promise.

US-UKR relationship restored, weapons deliveries & intel resumed. 30-days ceasefire proposal puts pressure where is belongs: on Putin. But many hurdles to take: will Russia accept, if yes how to make sure it doesn’t violate it, what’s the plan on security guarantees, long term, accountability etc

So Trump paused weapon deliveries and intelligence sharing with Ukraine. Has he requested the same from Kim Jong Un? Guess not. North Korea munitions, weapons and troops continue to fuel Russia. www.axios.com/2025/03/05/u...
