Awful news from our partner, the Olena Zelenska Foundation. Its work is irreplaceable for Ukrainian children. RU’s deliberate attacks on humanitarian aid show its utter disregard for human life. 🇺🇦’s resilience will not be broken. We keep supporting and helping Ukraine 💙💛
A Russian attack destroyed the warehouse of Olena Zelenska Foundation today. Humanitarian aid t be distributed to Ukrainian kids, their families and schools was kept there, waiting to be transported across Ukraine: generators, household appliances, e-books, laptops, tablets, medical equipment etc. In recent months, Russia has also attacked warehouses of international relief organizations such as the Red Cross and the UN. Russia intensifies its terror on Ukrainian civilians, hoping to make their lives as miserable as possible and cause a humanitarian refugee crisis in Europe this winter.

Just witnessed history in the making: the opening of the first accession negotiations cluster with Ukraine and Moldova. Ukraine and Moldova have delivered on reforms, and today Europe delivered on its promise. Montenegro also continues its steady progress towards EU membership, closing two more negotiating chapters and demonstrating that reforms deliver results. EU enlargement is one of the best investments we can make in our shared security, stability and prosperity. Now it is time to maintain the momentum and open the remaining negotiation clusters.

Happy #AfricaDay to our friends and partners across the African continent. Estonia’s 🇪🇪 cooperation with African nations has grown remarkably in recent years, especially in the fields of digital development, education, innovation, and business, as well as through collaboration in multilateral forums. Just last week, we opened two new honorary consulates in Gambia 🇬🇲 and Côte d'Ivoire 🇨🇮. Later this year, we will take another significant step as we open a new Embassy in Nairobi 🇰🇪, complementing our existing mission in Cairo 🇪🇬. We look forward to deepening these partnerships and creating new opportunities together.

Great to host colleagues from NB8 countries. Discussed development cooperation challenges and opportunities: reforms of UN and OECD Development Committe, tied vs untied aid. Found many areas where to cooperate, for example sharing experiences of increasing public awareness.

We stand with Ukraine because it is the right thing to do. We will not let Russia’s imperial ambition threaten European security. Ukraine needs money now. Europe must move. And Russia must pay. We need a decision from next week's #EUCO to move ahead with the reparations loan.

✨At #GlobalDigitalHealth in Nairobi, Enabel & the #DataGovernanceAction programme led a panel on how digital health wallets can move patients from data subjects to true data owners. 🩺 Key message: success depends on interoperability, human-centred design and no added cost for patients - and coordinated action at all levels.🚀

The #TallinnMechanism partners announced an additional €60 million for Ukraine. As Russia escalates attacks on Ukraine’s critical infrastructure, boosting cyber resilience is more urgent than ever. United, we stand against cyber aggression.

Today, Tánaiste @SimonHarrisTD joined 5️⃣0️⃣ UN MS + 🇪🇺 to condemn the incursion of Russian MiG-31 fighter jets into Estonian airspace. “We are here today because this incident concerns not only 🇪🇪, but the entire int’l community.” “We should always call out such outrageous actions by any member of the UN & even more so by a Permanent Member of the Security Council.”
