#WhenThingsMakeNoSense! why not just making #Swiss chocolate in #Switzerland and keep the #Matterhorn – at Geneva, Switzerland

This stems from "Swiss Made" legislation, as the triangular chocolate bars will be produced in Slovakia. s.swissin.fo/ZDYhZxX

Twitter friends 25 years ago Princess Diana promoted the need to clear landmine fields & assist mine victims + tons of "regular" folks & friendly states helped create a treaty to ban anti-personnel mines. Let's maintain the norm against these weapons everywhere. #MineBanTreaty25

Promoting this landmark humanitarian disarmament instrument & its norm is one way to commemorate #MineBanTreaty25! @UNMAS Global Advocate Daniel Crag of James Bond fame lends his voice to this global movement for a #MineFreeWorld and #MineSurvivorsRights! What's UR message today?

Rather sad to see that the civil society session is considered "informal" and hence no broadcasting of the proceedings :=? #FirstCommittee

Four years after the murder of J. Khashoggi, and the mastermind of that barbaric crime remains in power, rather than behind bars like the brave Saudis who have been persecuted for defending human rights. U.S. credibility is weakened when we fail to demand real justice.

Today is the day! 🇨🇭Switzerland 🎂celebrates 20 years as a UN Member State (after serving as Host State for over a century). Former Presidents Deiss and Dreifuss & KDK Chair Pedrazzini, remember these days when Switzerland visually and visibly joined the community of nations.
