🇺🇳Thanks to my career, I have been lucky to work & meet with global leaders, a few celebrities & so forth…
BUT having the chance to get a slot for a quick☕chat in the super busy agenda of @StephDujarric (my idol), @UN Spokesperson for @antonioguterres, is unbeatable!

Not really the point here @pass_blue, but the U.S. retains sovereignty over the territory of UNHQ - it just waived certain legal powers in the HQ district through a bilateral agreement with the UNSG - so @michaelgwaltz is not actually wrong.
Mike Waltz, US envoy to UN, is confused as he shouts at Cuban diplomats, saying: "This is America!" but the UN is international territory: UN 101
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The UN headquarters district remains US territory under the 1947 Headquarters Agreement, where federal, state and local US law applies except as otherwise provided; the agreement grants inviolability but does not transfer sovereignty to the UN.

🇺🇳 My int’l career began with the @UN in 2010. Almost 17 years later, it remains a beam of hope for me.
On #UNDay, my conviction is unchanged: cooperation is the key to peace, development, and opportunity for all.

My #AI strategy: clear prompts, critical thinking, good sources, and “please.” 🧠
My parents taught me manners. “The Terminator” taught me contingency planning😅
Jokes aside, how we talk to AI reflects habits we bring to human interactions, too.
Stay curious💡Stay kind❤️

With @WorldBankGroup support, students in rural #Cambodia 🇰🇭 are now in school, learning more effectively and building the skills they will need later in life.
This is creating stronger pathways from classrooms to future #jobs and opportunities.

Every child deserves to learn in safety, free from gender-based violence.
Funded by #ECW and developed in collaboration with @UNICEF & @INEEtweets, the 'Menu of Measures' provides practical guidance and validated indicators to help education practitioners assess and strengthen #GBV risk mitigation efforts in education in emergencies.

Just a few days until these corridors are full of world leaders. The critics of the UN and humanitarian action are also out in force.
Can we prove them wrong?👇 #UNGA

Grazie mille to Italy 🇮🇹 for its generous EUR 2.4 million (approximately USD 2.7 million) contribution to the Secretary-General's Peacebuilding Fund in 2026. As a long-standing partner, Italy's commitment continues to drive innovative partnerships and peacebuilding around the world.

Education is a fundamental human right. But exercising that right is becoming increasingly dangerous.
In the past two years, more than 8,500 attacks targeted schools, students & teachers.
All countries must ensure the right to education for every child & protect schools & places of learning.

Today is the International Day to Protect Education from Attack.
The numbers are stark: 8,566 reported attacks on educational institutions in the past 2 years, with 24,174 children affected by grave violations in conflict in 2025.
Education is a right.
Protect it.
Defend it.
