The message of all EU 27 Foreign Ministers is clear:
the best way to shape China’s choices is through robust engagement and by reducing strategic risks.

Chemical weapons remain a threat to humanity.
My message to #RevCon5: all states must strengthen the #ChemicalWeaponsConvention. Upholding the global norm against the use of chemical weapons is crucial to international peace and security.

I also want peace as soon as possible, and the Ukrainians more than anyone else, but what kind of peace? With an occupied country deprived of its freedoms? That is why we must continue to support Ukraine. My interview with @MariaTad

Important exchange today with EU Military Committee in format of 27 Chiefs of Defence on most important developments in area of security and defence.
At a very critical time to do so, which is rightly called a ‘tectonic shift’ and ‘Zeitenwende’.

No time to spare.
Together with @ThierryBreton, we've convened the whole EU defence #ammunition and missile industry to define the way forward to ramp-up production.
