The situation in Sudan is dire. Today, on the one-year anniversary of the conflict, we stand with survivors of sexual violence. The UK has not forgotten Sudanese women. UK funding is delivering protection and care for them. #SudanOneYearOn #KeepEyesOnSudan

Alexei Navalny dedicated his life to exposing the corruption of Putin’s system and speaking up for the Russian people – Yulia Navalnaya is continuing his fight.

I was honoured to meet her today.

New sanctions: today David Cameron has announced strict measures to impose asset freezes on businesses linked with financing the conflict in Sudan.

One year on from the start of the conflict, the warring parties must end fighting and meaningfully engage in a peace process.…

One year ago today, Sudan was plunged into a destructive war.

Today, we are sharing photos that show the beauty of Sudan, taken by our colleagues before the conflict began.

In front of the Palais des Nations, we solemnly marked 30 years since the genocide perpetrated against the Tutsi in Rwanda.

May we never forget the extreme costs of hatred and intolerance.

📢Excellent news in fight against meningitis.

Nigeria 🇳🇬 is the first country to roll out a new 5-in-1 vaccine against the disease. UK 🇬🇧 is proud to have funded its development.

Untreated, meningitis has a 50% fatality rate. With MenFive we're closer to defeating it by 2030.

Happy 30th birthday to the WTO

As indispensable as ever

And, as a “member driven” organisation, it’s in our hands to give it the birthday 🎂 present it deserves by finishing what we left unfinished at MC13 in Abu Dhabi - not least by curbing harmful fisheries subsidies

I presented my credentials three years ago tomorrow. The same blue skies as this weekend but a city - and world - still in the grips of the pandemic. A world before Putin’s full scale invasion of Ukraine. Before the calamitous civil war in Sudan. Before 7 October in Israel.

Read my statement on the Iranian regime’s reckless attack against Israel.

Iran's reckless attacks on Israel will only further inflame tensions in the Middle East.

The UK calls on the Iranian regime to stop this serious escalation, which is in no one’s interest.
