Today I went back to where I did my bluebook traineeship, the @eudiplomacy.bsky.social, a place I hold very dear. Congrats to the EEAS colleagues for a very well organised and engaging EU Open Day!

Today, the Coalition of the Willing convened.
We support the proposal for a full and unconditional 30-day ceasefire.
It must be implemented without preconditions to pave the way for meaningful peace negotiations.
The ball is now in Russia’s court.

2023 was one of the worst years for wildfires in the EU in over two decades.
🔴 500,000 hectares of natural lands affected,

I’ve created @polviolencepapers.bsky.social to repost working papers on political violence. Since Bluesky doesn’t have a bookmark function yet, I thought we needed a dedicated space to store all those working papers often shared here.
