Ukraine has fought hard for its independence. The determination of Ukrainians to fight for their freedom and live free from oppression endures. As you mark your Independence Day, we are reminded of the immense strength and bravery of the Ukrainian people today and every day.

Australia condemns the Taliban’s efforts to silence the voices of Afghanistan’s women and girls. The latest vice and virtue decree bans women’s voices and bare faces in public.   We stand together with the women and girls of Afghanistan, and in support of their human rights.

Wonderful to welcome @WIPO Director General Tang to Australia. His visit was an opportunity to celebrate those who worked tirelessly to deliver a historic new treaty recognising First Nations peoples’ genetic resources and traditional knowledge in the international IP system.
