Great meeting with these ambassadors discussing the Safer oil tanker, hosted by @GhanemSahar. The Netherlands is committed to prevent an oil spill, but we need global cooperation. Glad so many countries are willing to contribute, and that @beleefboskalis will pump out the tanker.

Belangrijk gesprek gehad met de @DutchRelief (DRA) over o.a. #Soedan. De DRA en hun lokale partners blijven speuren naar mogelijkheden om hun werk veilig en effectief voort te zetten. Samenwerking tussen internationale ngo's, lokale hulporganisaties & de VN is ook hier cruciaal.

Mooi bezoek aan @NXP, indrukwekkende chips voor auto's en andere toepassingen besproken. Om Nederlandse bedrijven in de chipsindustrie te helpen en onze positie te versterken, is samenwerking met andere landen op het gebied van ontwikkeling, talent en innovatie van groot belang.

Ongeveer 60 Nederlanders zijn succesvol geëvacueerd uit #Soedan, van wie 15 via een Nederlandse evacuatievlucht. Respect voor de inzet van onze diplomaten en militairen. Ondertussen doen we er alles aan om anderen die nog in Soedan zijn, te helpen.

Deeply saddened by the deadly attacks on humanitarian workers in #Sudan, such as a @UNmigration staff member today. My condolences to their loved ones.
RT @IOMchief: It is with a heavy heart I confirm the death of a valued IOM Sudan staff member today after his vehicle was caught in a crossfire south of El Obeid.
IOM mourns this tragedy, reiterates the call for an end to the violence and demands civilians be protected. https://www.iom.int/news/statement-iom-director-general-death-iom-sudan-staff-member#.ZEKF_Vfw3_k.twitter

Succesvolle handelsmissie in #Canada afgesloten. Veel belangstelling voor onze agri-tech bedrijven die land- en tuinbouw met hightech combineren. Met CETA is onze export met 30% gestegen en is zakendoen in Canada makkelijker geworden.

Great that @UNDP and Boskalis signed a contract to start the operation in the Red Sea to avoid an environmental, humanitarian & economic disaster. The Netherlands worked hard to mobilize funds for the #FSOSafer operation, and will keep helping the @UN to bring this to a good end.

Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, The Netherlands has remained committed to helping the Ukrainian people. This week we contributed EUR 40 million to the @Worldbank's @IFC_org. This provides Ukraine's farmers access to finance, and ensures more food security.

Alarming @OECD report: the production & trade of critical raw materials, like those needed for batteries, need to increase significantly to achieve global climate goals. The Netherlands and the EU are increasing efforts to reduce dependence on a few countries.
