Israel has the right to defend itself. We must make sure they have what they need to protect their people today and always. At the same time, Prime Minister Netanyahu and I have discussed how Israel must operate by the laws of war. That means protecting civilians in combat as best as they can. We can’t ignore the humanity of innocent Palestinians who only want to live in peace. That’s why I secured an agreement for the first shipment of humanitarian assistance for Palestinian civilians in Gaza. And we cannot give up on a two-state solution.

Congratulations to Team India on their remarkable performance in the #CWC2023! With three consecutive wins, they have set the tournament on fire, demonstrating their prowess on the field. Our bowlers displayed clinical precision by limiting Pakistan to just 191 runs on what appeared to be a great batting deck, while our batters showcased incredible composure and finesse during the run chase, securing a comprehensive victory. Captain @ImRo45‘s blistering knock in the run chase was the driving force behind our impressive victory, demonstrating his exceptional leadership and batting prowess. Let’s maintain this winning momentum and march forward!

Hospitals in Gaza are at a breaking point. Without immediate entry of aid, essential health care services will come to a halt. I visited Gaza in 2018. Access to care was already difficult. I know firsthand that a mass evacuation to the enclave’s south would be disastrous – for patients, health workers and other civilians left behind or caught in a dangerous and maybe a deadly mass movement. We appeal for the reversal of the decision.

Through his long and close association with CII, he championed initiatives in competitiveness, technology, corporate governance, community development and many others. Rahul Bajaj was a true and steadfast mentor for CII since its transformation in 1974. As President, CII in 1979-80, he presided over landmark initiatives in competitiveness and international engagement of Indian industry that guided its future.

Today is a historic day for all of us in the Tata Group, as we welcome Air India to the Group. We are excited, and we are committed to making this a world-class airline.
Like for many of us, my first flight was on Air India, in December 1986. I was a young intern then, at Tata Consultancy Services. I vividly recall, even after all this time, how I felt that day. There was a feeling of excitement, that it was a special experience. There was also a strong sense of belongingness.
Today, we are as excited. The Tata Group looks forward to working with Air India and taking our National Airline to new heights in the future.

An historic meeting for Australia, India, Japan and the United States – the first face-to-face Quad leaders’ meeting has just taken place at the White House.
The Quad is about demonstrating how great democracies such as ours can get things done and can respond to the big challenges that we face in a complex and changing world.
We came together today in collective strength, with mutual respect, transparently and, importantly, as one.
For Australia, the Quad is about how we keep Australia and the Indo-Pacific region we live in safe, secure and prosperous.
So much has been achieved since the first meeting of Quad leaders six months ago and we have great hope for what’s ahead.
That includes working together on low emissions technologies that will transform economies, to make cyberspace and emerging and critical technologies trusted and secure, and to manufacture and deliver over 1 billion COVID-19 vaccines to the Indo-Pacific region.

One of the things I’ve missed most over the last year is traveling to see our foundation’s work in action. I have photos all over our house of the women I’ve met on these trips. I’ve been thinking about them a lot amid the pandemic.
Has Anna in Tanzania gotten the information she needs to keep her family safe? How is Christina, a high school teacher in Kentucky, dealing with remote learning?
So many women face barriers in their daily lives. COVID-19 has only put up more. But if countries put women at the center of their pandemic response, I have hope we can build the more equal world that Anna, Christina, and all of us deserve. #tbt
