This weekend is special in #Estonia - it is the XIII Youth Song and Dance Celebration.
I have danced at every one of these celebrations throughout my youth, and these are memories I will always treasure.
I hope everyone enjoys these truly special moments.

Happy #CanadaDay, @JustinTrudeau and all our friends in Canada.
Estonia and Canada are close allies and like-minded partners. We value Canada’s contribution to the security of our region.
Glad Canada's presence in Estonia is soon growing by opening a new Embassy @CanadaEstonia.

Congratulations, @SwedishPM, on a successful @sweden2023eu presidency.
Sweden's leadership has been crucial to reach strong agreements on Ukraine, defence, migration, climate and eID.
Welcome to Spain taking over. I look forward to working closely during @eu2023es presidency.

My message on #AI regulation on the second day of #EUCO:
Europe should seize AI and the enormous opportunities here, not only concentrate on the risks.
In Estonia, we already have more than 100 use cases of AI to improve our public services. https://t.co/oGuHrZ0u7Y

A great example of #JustTransition: the construction of the first large rare earth refinery in Europe has started in Estonian border town of Narva.
#EU will reduce its dependence on critical supplies that are vital for green transition.
<div class="rsshub-quote">
European Commission: The Just Transition Fund finances a new facility to produce rare earth magnets in Estonia.
The rare earth magnets to be produced at this facility are important for Europe's energy transition.
They have the highest magnetic field strength, and sectors such as electric mobility,… https://n.respublicae.eu/i/web/status/1674048776380600326 https://t.co/MGf2jTR13v

At #EUCO, we reached an agreement that the new strategic environment requires the defence readiness of #Europe.
To stop Russia’s cycle of aggression, European defence needs a decisive lift.
EU-wide effort is needed to find ways and boost investments in our defence capabilities.

Had a good talk with the French President @EmmanuelMacron before #EUCO kicks off.
We agreed that European defence needs a decisive lift. We will have a thorough discussion on it around the EUCO table later today. https://t.co/dNXEmJIG7u

My messages at #EUCO:
The new security reality demands new solutions.
European defence needs a decisive lift. We need deterrence credible enough to stop Russia's aggression and avoid war.
Let's build a combat-effective Europe able to provide for transatlantic security. 1/ https://t.co/ik2uspOxUq

Re #Ukraine is fighting for freedom and also for justice.
We need to establish an international tribunal for the crime of aggression with the widest international legitimacy and no immunity for Russia’s leaders.
This is what I will suggest at the EUCO table to other EU leaders. 2/

Re We are committed to Ukraine’s reconstruction.
#Ukraine is a victim of Russia’s war and according to international law, must be compensated by Russia.
We need a solution that would allow the use of frozen assets, which we have seized with sanctions, to compensate war damages. 3/

In my @POLITICOEurope op-ed, I argue why with #EUCO and NATO’s Vilnius Summit just ahead, the time to lift our defence up to match the demands of the new security reality is now — because later may be too late.

I was glad to meet @vonderleyen.
We need a joint approach within the EU that would allow the use of #Russia’s frozen assets to compensate war damages.
#Ukraine is a victim of Russia’s war and must be compensated by Russia. It is unfair for our taxpayers to pay for destruction. https://t.co/sc75esdRA0

Had a good meeting with @alexanderdecroo ahead of #EUCO.

Good meeting with @jensstoltenberg.
#NATO is and will remain the cornerstone of a peaceful Euro-Atlantic area.
Our collective effort must be twofold: strengthening deterrence and defence and keeping our political promises by putting #Ukraine on the path to NATO membership. https://t.co/CIC2EpNQWm

Glad to meet with my good friend @RobertaMetsola.
We must not blur the focus in our support to #Ukraine.
European defence also needs a truly decisive lift. This means adjusting our defence industry to a new security footing. For this we need another EU-wide strategic effort. https://t.co/maOOiMa9pS

Thank you @CharlesMichel for a good discussion ahead of #EUCO.
My focus: use of Russia’s frozen assets for Ukraine's reconstruction, accountability, boosting European defence.
We must keep raising the price of aggression for #Russia and make sure we cut its cycle of aggression. https://t.co/VpIpUhf7xW

I am in #Brussels today to discuss with @CharlesMichel, @RobertaMetsola, @vonderleyen & @jensstoltenberg the decisions we need to help Ukraine win, break the Russian cycle of aggression, and secure the future of Europe.
I will also meet my good colleague @alexanderdecroo.

Re @hldrmeerits Ma pole öelnud, et pole mitte midagi võimalik kärpida. Seletasin, kuidas seda teeme ja jah, see on keeruline. Ja kõik ministrid pingutavad, et neid kohti leida.

Spoke to @Nieuwsuur. The war in Ukraine can only end with Ukraine’s victory. The war ends when Russia goes back to Russia.
This will not happen overnight. That is why it's so important that we don't get tired in supporting Ukraine.
Aggression as a policy tool cannot pay off.
