La semaine dernière, la présidente C. Sheinbaum du 🇲🇽 a été victime de harcèlement sexuel en pleine rue. Si cela arrive à une présidente, imaginez à quel point cela doit être fréquent pour les femmes & filles en général, sans personne pour les défendre. #ZeroTolerance @megaluxembourg.bsky.social

Solidaritéit ass eng Kärvaleur vun eiser Arméi.

Um Mäertesdag, Dag vum Schutzpatroun vun de Militär, erënnere mir dru wat dat bedeit:

Se ass d’Fundament vun eiser Stäerkt, vum Asaz fir Land a Leit, a vun engem credibele Lëtzebuerger Bäitrag zu den Efforte vun NATO an EU.
