At the first-ever UN 🇺🇳 #PeacebuildingWeek I presented this week the statement of the #EU 🇪🇺, its Member States and numerous aligned countries. At local, national and international level - 🇪🇺 is one of the main contributors to 🌏🌍🌎 international support. #StrongerTogether

Kicking off my trip to 🇺🇦 at the Green School Recovery Camp. #Ukrainian children and youth do not deserve what #Russia is inflicting on them. They deserve to learn and grow in peace and @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu 🇪🇺 is honoured to support those who create such spaces with 🇵🇱 Solidarity Fund

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

Around ten years ago I visited the #Chornobyl area - one of the most impressive places I have ever been to. The level of devastation by a technology that was seen as bringing a bright future. But also how much nature had claimed back control. #RussianAggression in Ukraine made things worse again

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

Always a great feeling if #EU support is so much appreciated by partners. With the European Peace Facility, the 🇪🇺 Member States provide tangible support. Proud of the work of the 🇪🇺 service for Foreign Policy Instruments on the implementation. Together with our wide ranging work on stabilisation

Wrapping up a visit to DRC 🇨🇩 with an interview at @hirondelle.bsky.social Great presentation of their excellent work on the media environment, disinformation and hate speech. And an opportunity to talk about the wide range of FPI activities on behalf of 🇪🇺.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 10/03/2026

Great start into the #FPIDays 2026 with a message from @kajakallas to our staff from Brussels and around the world 🌎🌍🌏. What do the F, the P and the I mean for our colleagues? Preparing for volatile times ahead, but also briefly looking back at 15 years serving the #EU 🇪🇺

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 28/01/2026

Thanks to @comfortero.crisisgroup.org and Olof Skoog (EEAS) for an insightful discussion today at ICG's "10 conflicts to Watch" event. We hear you Comfort: in a world shaped by spheres of influence 🇪🇺's strength is precisely its soft power. Though good that Europe also has hard power.

I am neither good at Boccia nor archery, but this tournament was far from frustrating. @EU_FPI has been supporting 🇺🇦 veterans since before 🇷🇺 full-scale invasion. Adaptive sports can be key for rehabilitation and it was good to see how CSOs like Вільні Воїни work in this area.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 21/11/2025

Lots of fog in Kyiv. But there is no other city where I would want to be on the day of dignity and freedom.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 04/09/2025

Paying tribute to the great Maidan figure, former Rada Speaker and Ukrainian politician Andryi Parubyi whose murder leaves an enormous empty space. It was an honour to light a candle at his grave in Lviv.

We’re at the Osaka EXPO with our exhibition “#TeamEurope & Japan: „United for a Safer World”, showing how we and 🇯🇵 Japan support humanitarian demining globally — from #Ukraine to #Syria. 🐕🤖👩‍🎓 Meet the heroes of mine action. Since 2022, 🇪🇺 has invested €200M+ in mine action worldwide.

Devastated by siege and war, #Yarmouk Camp is seeing its first waves of return since the fall of the Assad regime. Families come back to rubble, not homes. 🇪🇺 support is essential to Syria’s recovery, and we are proud to support the outstanding efforts of 🇺🇳UNMAS and many others

011

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 21/05/2025

The enormous destructions and the many landmines and unexploded ammunition across the country kill people, prevent families from returning home, the economy and agriculture to take up. Fruitful exchange with the White Helmets on how to support their work and increase their capacity

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 21/05/2025

Transitional justice was an area discussed with interlocutors, incl. 🇸🇾 Justice Minister Madhhar Al-Wais. We discussed concept and possible 🇪🇺 support via our Foreign Policy Instruments. Good to see now the creation of the long-awaited National Authority for Transitional Justice sana.sy/en/?p=355958

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 21/05/2025

Very good meetings with several ministers, civil society, some of our project partners, media, #EU 🇪🇺 diplomats present in #Syria 🇸🇾… Building on the big support packages already in place, discussions went around the economy, media, transitional justice, capacity building etc.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 21/05/2025

Back from some busy and productive days in #Damascus 🇸🇾, together with our #EU delegation colleagues. Lots of people in the street to celebrate the announced lifting of sanctions by 🇺🇸, hoping for this to bring some of the desperately needed jobs

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 17/05/2025

Three incredibly beautiful countries with rich history - and a lot of suffering of the people. Together with them and our partners we are working towards a better future. #StrongerTogether 🇪🇺

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 17/05/2025

Demining, transitional justice, kickstarting the economy to provide jobs for the people, peace building… The #EU 🇪🇺 is already present in the country, and ready to do more.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 17/05/2025

Followed by visits to #Lebanon 🇱🇧 and #Syria 🇸🇾 where the #EU 🇪🇺 supports the people in these countries addressing the impact of decades of wars and conflicts. #ForeignPolicyInAction

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 17/05/2025

Ten days, lots of flags. Clearly too many on the cemetery in #Lviv for the soldiers who died defending their homeland #Ukraine 🇺🇦. Foreign Ministers from 🇪🇺 and beyond demonstrated solidarity - and launched the international Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression against Ukraine.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

This #VyshyvankaDay again colleagues from our 🇪🇺 Service for Foreign Policy Instruments & beyond joined the celebration of Ukraine’s culture & resilience. Here our wishes in 17 languages! How does ‘Happy Vyshyvanka day’ sound in your language? Tell us in the comments! We #StandWithUkraine!

At the end of a busy day in Damascus 🇸🇾: passing by Syrians celebrating the end of US sanctions.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 13/05/2025

After more than 20 years - back to #Syria 🇸🇾. Last time I was (on a private trip) admiring the landscape and marvelling at historical treasures. This time it’s about a part of the #EU 🇪🇺 support to the people of this beautiful country.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 11/05/2025

We used the opportunity to explain a bit, what we in @EU_FPI are doing for 🇪🇺 #ForeignPolicyInAction across the world 🌍. Election observation, mine action, public diplomacy e.g. in Osaka 🇯🇵. Thank you to joint teams with our partners, and the many curious visitors.

A doll and a toy 🧸 car 🚙 (containing explosives), a dog 🐕 (finding land mines), videos of 🇪🇺 #EU action in support of demining - some of the many @EU_FPI activities seen by thousands of visitors at our stands during the #EUOpenDay in Brussels. @ec.europa.eu

With attacks on energy infrastructure, Russia is trying to make Ukraine’s cities go dark. Together with our partners like @undp.org we are working against this. Zaporizhzhia is one of the cities that is receiving support to make sure that lights and power stay on in its homes, schools and hospitals.

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

With 🇪🇺 support via our Foreign Policy Instruments (FPI), apopo and MAG are training mine dogs in #Ukraine 🇺🇦 and beyond. Dogs 🐕 and their handlers are not afraid of mines. But some people look very sceptical when they are with dogs 🫣.

011

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

Long title, clear objectives. The „Ukraine Mine Action Partner Coordination Workshop“ brings together #Ukraine’s 🇺🇦 partners to discuss further cooperation and improvement in demining the country. Land the size of 🇨🇭 has already been released for use.

011

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 04/04/2025

Good to be back in #Zaporizhzhia 🇺🇦. A stark contrast to my last visit 2020 but even more impressive when it comes to the resilience of the city and its people. With 🇷🇺 constantly targeting critical infrastructure, energy resilience is key to withstand those attacks

000

Peter M. Wagner @petermwagner.bsky.social · 08/03/2025

🙏🏼 to our #EU support, 4 teams of highly trained dogs with their handlers will go to 🇺🇦#Ukraine to clear landmines & unexploded ordnance. Their work will contribute to making Mykolaiv safer to civilians. 12 of the 14 handlers are women. #forallwomenandgirls 🔗 europa.eu/!vDbdWB 📷 Mines Advisory Group
