Today in the US Congress I held positive discussions with leaders from both parties on various refugee crises. I urged them to step up peacemaking efforts, while bipartisan support for the recent supplemental bill allows life-saving aid to keep flowing to millions in need.

Grateful for the opportunity to thank @SecBlinken for the extraordinary support which the US continues to give to refugees and displaced people, and to UNHCR. I assured him of our commitment to implementing the Los Angeles Declaration on migration and protection in the Americas.

I represented UNHCR at the ministerial meeting on the Los Angeles Declaration hosted by Guatemala — regional cooperation is crucial in addressing regional population flows, with a strong focus on building the capacity of states and creating opportunities for people on the move.

Un placer reunirme con el Canciller @AlbertoKlaveren y discutir el desarrollo del proceso de conmemoración del 40 aniversario de la Declaración de Cartagena — piedra angular de la protección de los refugiados en las Américas. Gracias a Chile por su liderazgo.

I have just concluded a fruitful visit to Qatar, where UNHCR’s cooperation with government and civil society organizations remains strong. Yesterday’s $8 million flexible contribution to our global work confirms Qatar’s humanitarian engagement and leadership. Thank you!

Together with the Olympic Refuge Foundation, I visited a shelter for Palestinians from Gaza treated in Qatar for grave injuries and other health issues. I saw children whose limbs had to be amputated because of the lack of antibiotics in Gaza. This is intolerable. #CeasefireNOW

The “Safety of Rwanda” bill was passed by the UK Parliament: both @UNHumanRights and UNHCR are very concerned by this decision, which breaches refugee law and won’t help address the challenges of irregular population movements. Read our joint statement:

UK-Rwanda asylum law: UN leaders warn of harmful consequences | UNHCR

GENEVA – Following the passage of the “Safety of Rwanda” Bill by the UK Parliament, two UN leaders have again sounded the alarm on the harmful impact it will have on global responsibility-sharing,...

Ambassador Mailu, Kenya’s Permanent Representative @UNGeneva , will soon leave his post. He will be missed, but I was delighted to have another inspiring talk with him, thank him for his support and agree that UNHCR’s special relationship with Kenya is key and must be maintained!

We are all at risk of losing our #Earth . Refugees and displaced people are among the most vulnerable. Because climate change causes conflict — and displacement. It makes displacement even harsher. And it complicates solutions for those displaced. Food for thought on #EarthDay .

Ce fut un plaisir d’échanger avec @steph_sejourne et de le féliciter personnellement pour le succès de la conférence de Paris sur le Soudan. Le ministre m’a assuré de l’appui fort de la France au travail du HCR: un partenariat indispensable à la cause des réfugiés dans le monde.
