Pleased that senator @BenCardinforMD and former congressman Mr. Tom Davies joined the @oscepa briefing for the US #MidtermsElection2022 observation mission. In the coming days, some 110 #OSCEPA members from more 30 countries will observe the election in different states.

Briefing for the US election observation mission of the #MidtermElections2022. One of todays topics is campaign and campaign finance with @EllenLWeintraub @skrmhlz and Saurav Ghosh @perejoanpons @oscepa

Honoured to serve as Special Co-ordinator/ Leader of the Short term mission for the election observation of the #MidtermElections2022 #USA

It’s a true honour to have been appointed as Special Coordinator/Leader of the Short term OSCE observation by @PLinOSCE Foreign Minister @RauZbigniew for the observation mission of the #USA #MidtermElections2022. @oscepa observer delegation is the largest ever.

I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear of the violent assault on @SpeakerPelosi's husband Paul in San Francisco last night. Violence such as this has no place in our politics. I wish Paul Pelosi a speedy recovery! @oscepa

@tkdb10 @Sverigesriksdag @SikyongPTsering @frasi_la Thank you for visiting the Swedish Parliament. It’s a true honour to meet with Honorable @SikyongPTsering

Grattis Ulf Kristersson, Sveriges statsminister!

Looking forward the Ministerial Council hosted by #OSCE2022POL in #Lodź. @oscepa

In the past two days, Ukraine’s air-defense forces have shot down at least 66 cruise missiles, 40 kamikaze drones and destroyed eight of the cruise missiles fired at Ukraine yesterday. The international support for Ukraine need to continue and increase. #StandWithUkraine @oscepa

#Russia will be even more isolated if #Putin continue his illegal war in Ukraine. If Putins goal is a better situation for Russia and it’s people there is only one way - immediate end his war in #Ukraine. @oscepa

Today marks 6 months since Russian democracy activist #VladimirKaraMurza was imprisoned for speaking out against Putin’s war in Ukraine. He is now facing up to 20 years in prison for treason charges. We need to raise political will and continue to call for his release @oscepa

The shelling of #Kyiv and several other Ukrainian cities during the morning must be strongly condemned. #Putin and his regime are targeting residential areas and killing civilians, to which they will be held accountable. I call for an immediate cessation of the bombings @oscepa

#Putins attack on Ukrainan capital Kyiv has no excuse. The only way forward is ceasefire and negotiations based on respect on Ukraines international agreed boarders for long lasting peace. @oscepa

Participated in a roundtable at #WHDC with @KHadjiyianni and @MPritchardUK about parliamentary partnership with civil society organisations and the role of @oscepa in strengthening human rights in the region. Civil society is a cornerstone in a democratic society

At the #WHDC did I raise political imprisonments need for greater attention as it’s a violation of the HR and fundamental freedoms of the Helsinki Final Act. It’s 6 months since Russian opposition politician @vkaramurza was detained. Demands on his release will continue.

Pleased to attend the @PLinOSCE and osce_odihr #WarsawHumanDimensionConference. In my address, I highlighted that @oscepa parliamentarians are instrumental in strengthening rule of law in our national parliaments as well as in the dialogue with @OSCE and its institutions.

A fake referendum doesn’t give Russia right to Ukraine territory. Kherson and Luhansk are among 4 regions which Putin declared to be part of Russia. Russia doesn’t fully control any of the 4 regions. The only right thing is to withdraw the illegal military forces #SupportUkraine

The OSCE's united in condemning Russia’s annexation of Ukrainian territory. The “referenda” held in Donbas were illegitimate under both Ukrainian and international law, therefore today’s move is nothing but an illegal land grab. We demand that Russian forces leave Ukraine @oscepa

#Putins illegal annexation of parts of Ukraine doesn´t become more legitime because of bombastic speeches, rock concerts and festivals. It´s only a signal that Putin fare to loose his illegitimate war in #Ukraine. #SupportUkraine #StopPutinNow #SlavaUkraine

#Putin is desperate and weak. Putin and #Russia will sooner or later be hold responsible for the war in #Ukraine. No treath, weapons or violence will protect Putin. Whatever he may consider to be the strongest remaining assets will be the opposite #SupportUkraine

#Putin #Referendum is only a pretext for and prelude to a try to justify an illegal annexation of Ukraine’s Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions. The votes have been widely criticized by some of Russia’s allies as well by West #StopRussianAggression #SupportUkraine

Thanks to Finlands OSCE Delegation, Head of Delegation @vilhelmjunnila and Vice President @PiaKauma for a very interesting Helsinki + 50 Seminar - The Role of the OSCE and its Parliamentary Assembly in the Changing European Security Architecture.

It’s a pleasure to participate in the @oscepa and @SoumenEduskunta Helsinki+50 seminar. Discussion on the role of @oscepa in the importance of OSCE in the changing European Security Architecture. It’s important to continue to promote security in the 57 countries in OSCE region.

I strongly condemn Putins decision to mobilize Russian military reserves to serve in #Ukraine. Putin is escalating the #RussianWarInUkraine, to which he will be held accountable. @oscepa continues to work for an end of the war with respect for Ukraine’s territorial integrity.
