Today, we reached an agreement with Israel to expand humanitarian access to Gaza.
This deal means more crossings open, aid and food trucks entering Gaza, repair of vital infrastructure and protection of aid workers.
We count on Israel to implement every measure agreed

Ahead of an important Executive Board session of the World Food Programme, EU🇪🇺 Ambassadors met this morning to exchange views on how to best support the fight against hunger. In a volatile global context, we continue to stand firmly behind WFP’s life-saving mandate and the brave work of WFP staff.
Today Pope Leo XIV received the Diplomatic Corps. He outlined his foreign policy that will strive for peace, justice & truth. It was an honour for me as 🇪🇺EU Ambassador to meet the new leader of 1,4 billion Catholics whose own life experience has spanned North America, South America & Europe.
The diplomacy of Pope Leo XIV: Already in his first days in office as head of the global Catholic Church, the new Pope has shown his readiness to activate the papal diplomacy🇻🇦to help world leaders moving towards an authentic, just & lasting peace in the many wars & conflicts on this planet.
It was a great honour and a pleasure to meet, as Ambassador of the European Union🇪🇺, the new Pope Leo XIV on the occasion of his first address to the diplomatic corps accredited to the Holy See🇻🇦.
As 🇪🇺EU Ambassador to the Holy See, I was honoured & glad that the European Union, after 55 years of diplomatic relations, was strongly represented by @eucopresident.consilium.europa.eu, @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu, @president.europarl.europa.eu, @kajakallas.bsky.social & EP Vice-President Sberna.
