The Global Compact on Refugees was a collective response to the plight of millions living in long-term forced displacement. COVID-19 now shows us that the Compact's principles of responsibility-sharing and global solidarity are as relevant as ever. https://t.co/vB7W5iwuwL

Malta’s assistance to refugees has been lifesaving. With @byroncamilleri we acknowledge that increased arrivals add pressure, but there are ways to ensure asylum procedures and reception align with int. standards without resorting to detention. UNHCR is ready to assist @MaltaGov https://t.co/WFnS7cXzXd

Inspiring to meet with refugee community leaders in Malta. After an arduous journey to safety it can be a daunting experience to start life in a new country. The refugee community has been key in helping support other newly arrived refugees to integrate. https://t.co/Bd4Zco1m0r
