At the EU-CELAC summit in November, we want to deepen our ties & strengthen multilateralism, boost growth and tackle challenges such as organized crime and climate change. The 🇩🇪-🇨🇴 climate partnership already creates momentum for our cooperation. (2/2)

As strong partners, Germany & Colombia can face global challenges head-on. In a dynamic world, we can offer each other clear benefits, cooperating on economic and security issues. 🇩🇪 also supports the 🇨🇴 peace process. @aussenminister.diplo.de with 🇨🇴 Yolanda Villavicencio. (1/2)

Foreign policy isn’t just diplomacy between ministries, it must be rooted in our societies. In Egypt, that includes the German Archeological Institute @dai-weltweit.bsky.social, the many German schools, and 500,000+ students learning German. 4/4

Egypt is our gateway to Africa and the Arab world. Many German companies know this - and we want to deepen economic ties. We also aim to cooperate more in vocational training and attract skilled Egyptian workers. 3/4

We spoke with Steve Witkoff about the “day after”. Gaza needs new local administration under the planned peace council. Egypt has laid groundwork. For international security forces, a UN Security Council resolution would be a sensible basis. 2/4

My Egyptian colleague Badr Abdelatty and I agree: the momentum around the peace plan for #Gaza must be seized. Quick results are needed to build trust - and first signs of hope must be followed by concrete next steps. @aussenminister.diplo.de 1/4

Israel’s #security is non-negotiable. The US plan ensures just that. At the same time, international law must be at the core of all solutions. That includes the #WestBank, which is integral to the two-state solution we are working towards.
@aussenminister.diplo.de 3/3

#Hamas must act now. But #Israel also bears responsibility for a smooth transition between the stages of the #US peace plan. We need a ceasefire now - to free the hostages and to end the humanitarian catastrophe in #Gaza.
@aussenminister.diplo.de 2/3

During my trip to the region, I urged my counterparts to use their influence on #Hamas. The big questions of the day after must not delay the implementation of steps towards peace.
@aussenminister.diplo.de 1/3

That is why I’m holding talks in #Israel today and will continue my trip to #Egypt. This week is crucial: to free the hostages, get aid into Gaza, and achieve a ceasefire. Every effort is worth it. @aussenminister.diplo.de 5/5

In the coming days, it is key to implement phase one of the US peace plan for #Gaza. Regional states support this - a positive sign. But much work remains. We will do our part. @aussenminister.diplo.de 4/5

Proxies like the Houthis are one way #Iran destabilizes the region. In dealing with Iran, we - as the Gulf Cooperation Council - act based on the rules-based international order. @aussenminister.diplo.de 3/5
germany.diplo.de
The #Houthis threaten not only #Israel with their attacks but also global trade. Europe and especially Gulf states are affected. The EU is contributing to security in the Red Sea through naval Operation Aspides. @aussenminister.diplo.de 2/5
germany.diplo.de
The #EU and the Gulf states share common interests. Germany is expanding global partnerships - in the Gulf region, we work closely with partners on economic and security issues. @aussenminister.diplo.de 1/5

@aussenminister.diplo.de: It is the hour of diplomacy in #Gaza. Today I met 🇶🇦 Foreign Minister Al Thani. We agree: there is a real chance for the release of all hostages, an improved humanitarian situation in #Gaza & an end to this horrendous conflict. We stand ready to do our part.

დღეს საქართველოს ელჩის მოვალეობის შემსრულებელი გერმანიის საგარეო საქმეთა სამინისტროში მოვიწვიეთ და მას მკაფიო გზავნილი გადავეცით: საქართველოს მთავრობის წარმომადგენლების მხრიდან თბილისში გერმანიის ელჩის მიმართ უსაფუძვლო ბრალდებები და აგრესიული რიტორიკა მიუღებელია და უნდა შეწყდეს.

Today, the Chargé d’Affaires of #Georgia was invited to the German Federal Foreign Office. We conveyed a clear message: the unfounded accusations and aggressive rhetoric by Georgian authorities against the German ambassador in Tbilisi are unacceptable and must stop.

Thanks Marcos Perestrello for your important work as President of the #NATO Parliamentary Assembly. Where #Russia targets our readiness to defend, we must continue to strengthen our deterrence and defense. Germany is ready. @aussenminister.diplo.de

Diplomacy means exchange. After talks in the #WeimarTriangle & our panel at the Warsaw Security Forum, Andrii Sybiha & I are discussing bilaterally how 🇩🇪 & 🇪🇺 can continue to support #Ukraine in its fight for peace. Because strengthening 🇺🇦 means protecting Europe. @aussenminister.diplo.de

Thank you Rafael Grossi for your tireless efforts on nuclear safety. Diplomatic efforts must continue even after #Snapback. #Iran must fulfill its international obligations. We fully support #IAEA’s vital work also in #Ukraine, where safety at #Zaporizhzhia NPP is critical.

The war in #Gaza must end now. Hamas must finally release the hostages. Thanks also to 🇺🇸, a solution is within reach. 🇩🇪 worked hard to get to this stage. We call on all sides to show the courage to take the final decisive step. @aussenminister.diplo.de

#Russia is relentlessly continuing its war against #Ukraine. Peace talks could start today – if Putin wanted. Instead, he is choosing escalation. That’s why we are continuing to support Ukraine firmly – with weapons, but also politically. @aussenminister.diplo.de

Defending NATO’s eastern flank requires advancing our drone defence, reacting faster, and networking our systems even more closely. This is about safeguarding our European peace order as a whole. @aussenminister.diplo.de
