European Union at the UN – New York

🌈Celebrating Pride with partners, colleagues, and friends hosted by 🇪🇺Ambassador Stavros Lambrinidis at 📍 Leslie-Lohmann Museum of Art, NYC.

Pride is a celebration of dignity, equality and love — and a reminder that human rights are universal and belong to all of us.

The EU remains steadfast in defending the rights, freedoms and equal dignity of every person, everywhere. Because diversity makes our societies stronger, and human rights are for all of us.

Enough is enough. Time for a ceasefire now.

This week all UN Security Council members—except one—were united in calling for a full, immediate, and unconditional ceasefire. As did Ukraine.

Russia remains the only obstacle to peace. We urge it to abide by UNSC members’ call. Now.

Happy World Oceans Day! 🌊
A day to remember how much life depends on the health of our ocean.
A healthy ocean supports marine species, coastal communities and food systems, and helps strengthen climate resilience.
This is why the EU is working to protect the ocean in different ways: through the European Ocean Pact, better ocean observation with OceanEye, and international action for marine biodiversity.
The ocean is vast, and caring for it depends on steady action, day after day.
