We are deeply saddened by the passing of Eva Schloss, who had fled Austria from Nazi persecution, became a close friend and stepsister of Anne Frank and later co-founded the Anne Frank Trust in the UK.
Our profound sympathies are with Eva's family and friends at this difficult time.

#70years after Austria’s accession to the #UN, one thing is clear: A rules-based international world order is crucial for our security. That is why we are running for a seat on the UN Security Council for 2027/2028. We must work together to ensure peace, freedom, and prosperity.

Deeply shocked by the heinous terrorist attack at a Chanukka festivity in Sydney. We will never give an inch to this terror. My thoughts are with the victims and their families, and the Australian people. We stand together with Australia in this shattering moment.
