The Council of Europe condemns unbearable suffering in #Gaza, denounces violations of int’l law, and urges a return to a credible political process. A rules-based order cannot survive if international law is ignored — in Gaza or beyond. Full statement👇 coe.int/en/web/portal/…

I reaffirmed to Pope Leo XIV Pope Leo XIV @COE's commitment to peace, justice, accountability, and dialogue. When war, hatred, and division threaten the soul of our continent, we defend human dignity, protect the innocent, and restore democracy to the heart of our shared destiny.

Fake videos. Fake soldiers. Fake riots. Disinformation isn’t just noise — it’s a weapon aimed at democracy itself. Today Council of Europe, young developers, designers, and thinkers from across Europe are joining forces to fight back. This is Europe’s first hackathon on innovating democracy!

Just checked in with #Hackathon teams @coe_youth in Budapest. Incredible energy from young people across Europe (and beyond!)  They're the 1st generation raised in a world shaped by algorithms, feeds, and AI. But they’re not passive users — they're active defenders of democracy!

I look forward to welcoming President Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський to the Council of Europe tomorrow. As strikes continue, we are closing the accountability gap — and bringing the crime of aggression under the rule of law. Europe and the world need the Special Tribunal.

Thank you to PACE for this candid Q&A. We spoke about the war in #Ukraine, the situation in #Gaza, the role of the ECHR CEDH — and why a Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression matters. 🎥 Watch full video here: youtu.be/jNSk5vvc_Bk

Met with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський ahead of the signature of the bilateral agreement between Council of Europe and Ukraine on the Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression. His visit sends a powerful message: Law must speak louder than bombs. The arc of history bends toward justice.

#Ukraine and Council of Europe have signed an agreement to establish the Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression. This historic moment reminds us: international law must apply to all — with no exceptions, and with no double standards.

Tonight, the European family came closer together. As President Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський said: “This tribunal gives us a real chance to bring justice for the crime of aggression.” Let’s rally behind it. No reward for aggression. Vive l’Ukraine libre. Vive l’Europe.
