What a beautiful word to wrap up the week. "Regardless of where you start, you can always end in places that are extraordinary." Thank you, @USAmbUN for sharing this tribute.

Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield @USAmbUN

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since we lost Madeleine Albright. There’s not a day that goes by that I don't think about her, that I don’t miss her.

She was a role model to me and so many women around the world. And she left an indelible mark on our country and the world.

Important question posed today by @JerryMoran on the Afghan humanitarian/food crisis and the barriers created by the Taliban. Good response from @SecBlinken that US remains largest single humanitarian contributor to Afghanistan and has worked effectively through @UN and NGOs. https://twitter.com/JerryMoran/status/1638618095278333952

Senator Jerry Moran @JerryMoran

Afghanistan is facing a massive humanitarian crisis that is made worse by the Taliban's actions. As Co-Chair of the Senate Hunger Caucus, I asked @SecBlinken what is being done to pressure the Taliban to change course so that the hunger crisis can be effectively addressed.

With so much suffering in the world, this human kindness was just what we needed. Thanks to all the #Oscars in blue supporting #refugees worldwide ❤️

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees

The #Oscars were painted blue and gold last night in solidarity with displaced people everywhere.

Thank you to our Goodwill Ambassador Cate Blanchett for galvanising such incredible support for the #WithRefugees blue ribbon 🏆 4

Hey #Oscars2023 fans! Grab your popcorn and... have a think? Awards for best int'l film rarely go to the Global South. Not amplifying others' stories impacts how the U.S. engages with global partners. We can do better to nurture a more connected planet: https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2023/03/10/1161303036/and-the-oscar-for-best-international-film-rarely-goes-to

Thank you @POTUS for leadership in fully funding the @UN, including $344M in arrears and $150M to @UNESCO. While there’s more work to do to continue demonstrating American leadership around the globe, this is a necessary step #PresidentsBudget
