We need to take a step back.

Fostering an environment where there is room for #Israel and #Palestine to engage in dialogue again—an environment of mutual respect—is vital.

A two-state solution must be possible. #EPlenary

The separation of powers and rule of law have been severely damaged in #Bolivia, where 160 political prisoners remain incarcerated.

Añez is paraded around as a trophy of the narco-communist regime to intimidate the population.

We continue to demand justice for @JeanineAnez.
