The resolution on the moratorium on the use of the #deathpenalty was adopted today in the UN General Assembly with the support of more than 2/3 of the UN members. The trend is clear - more and more countries see capital punishment as obsolete, cruel and ineffective. 🇪🇺EU at UN-NY

Congratulations to the Tocoa Committee, winner of the 2024 EU Human Rights Award from Unión Europea en Honduras. This 🏆 honors environmental human rights defenders, often risking their lives, as shown by the murder of their leader, Juan López. EU urges full investigation into his case.

Venezuela: La UE se solidariza con todas las víctimas de la represión. La UE exige la liberación inmediata de Enrique Márquez, Carlos Correa y Rafael Tudares, así como de todos los presos políticos. La intimidación contra los líderes de la oposición y sus familias debe acabar.

The ICC guarantees accountability for international crimes and gives a voice to victims worldwide. It must be able to freely pursue the fight against global impunity. Europe will always stand for justice and the respect of international law.

We shouldn't take anything off the table before the negotiations have even started. It is clear that any deal behind our backs will not work. You need the Europeans, you need the Ukrainians. Extract from my doorstep ahead of @nato Defence Ministers meeting ↓

Our presence today in Kyiv is a demonstration of our solidarity with the people of Ukraine and with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський. We all want this war to end, and the suffering and destruction to stop. This moment matters. For Ukraine, and for Europe's security. #SupportUkraine

Just 2 weeks ago I met with politically persecuted journalist José Rubén Zamora in Guatemala. I am deeply concerned over news on attempts by Guatemalan courts to return him to prison - a violation of freedom of expression and an assault on democracy Unión Europea en Guatemala
