J’ai échangé ce matin avec le Prince héritier d’Arabie saoudite, le Sultan d’Oman, le Président des Émirats arabes unis et l’Émir du Qatar pour leur marquer notre solidarité.
Au Président iranien, j’ai redit notre exigence : la libération immédiate de nos compatriotes Cécile Kohler et Jacques Paris.
Suite aux frappes de la nuit, j’ai appelé à la désescalade, à l'exercice de la plus grande retenue par l'Iran dans ce contexte dangereux pour permettre un retour à la voie diplomatique.
Le dialogue, un engagement clair de l’Iran de renoncer à l’arme nucléaire, ou le risque du pire pour toute la région. Il n’y a que ce chemin qui mène vers la paix et la sécurité de tous.
The title character of Tchaikovsky’s “Iolanta” overcomes blindness through the help of a doctor with spiritual powers. In a new production @WrStaatsoper, she holds her hands over her eyes after a magical rose garden yields to a war-torn city. More 👇

All but one of Johann Strauss’s operettas premiered @TheaterWien . A new production of his seventh stage work, Das Spitzentuch der Königin, is bold and entertaining but could lavish more attention on musical style. #Strauss2025 👇

Was out on the stump today at the German Foreign Office, calming German nerves about Trump 2.0…

Harmony still exists in some places: the end of Schreker’s Chamber Symphony, last Friday night in Chur, with my colleagues of the Musikkollegium in Winterthur.
Shrecker was “cancelled” by the government Nazis who labelled his music “degenerate”.

#HistoryCheck: Were #imperial #family dinners stiff and formal? The closest circle of #FranzJoseph enjoyed a much livelier atmosphere than one might expect. Even though the #emperor was still addressed as "Your #Majesty," the mood was quite spirited and open.
