Gleichzeitig hat die Mitgliederversammlung Norbert Lammert zum neuen Ehrenvorsitzenden gewählt. Seit über 25 Jahren ist er im Vorstand unserer Stiftung – erst als stellvertretender Vorsitzender, seit 2018 als Vorsitzender. Mit langem Applaus wurde ihm gedankt.

Afghanischer Richter mit deutscher #Aufnahmezusage scheiterte am #BVerfG: Er hat keinen #Vertrauensschutz. Die Bundesregierung muss nur schnell über den Visumsantrag entscheiden, damit er und seine Familie Gewissheit haben. #Afghanistan

German Govt., via #KfW, is funding €27M for a new substation in Gharo, Sindh. Siemens & NTDC signed the contract today. The project will improve the electricity supply through wind power — a win for clean energy & consumers!

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our former Head of Delegation, @RaffaellaIodic2.
She was a true friend of Afghanistan, a champion of women & girls, and a beloved colleague to many.
Our delegation is in deep shock & mourning
May her memory be a blessing

#IMF executive board approved the much needed bailout package for #Pakistan.
Yes implementing the program will make life difficult for people and the Govt. However, any further delay in securing the program would have put pressure on value of rupee against dollar, and could negatively affect our credit rating.
Now what is needed, is implementation of the program while ensuring that lower and lower-middle income earners in Pakistan are protected from its negative effects through targeted social protection.

"While the Pakistan army’s campaign to sideline Imran Khan appears to be succeeding so far, it is severely undermining fundamental rights, judicial independence, press freedoms, and Pakistani democracy itself in the process."

The arrest of @ImranKhanPTI can only add fuel to an already highly volatile political environment in #Pakistan. Not a smart move by PM @CMShehbaz if he was hoping to quiet things down before the elections later in the year. nytimes.com/2023/05/09/world…
