For our planet and climate to be preserved.

Ukraine needs long-term security.
At the @NATO Summit we are discussing how to best provide for this.

Today we are signing the 🇪🇺🇳🇿 free trade agreement.
An ambitious, balanced agreement that reflects our shared net-zero goals.
We are already New Zealand's 3rd biggest trade partner.
Now we could increase trade between us by 30%

I welcome last night’s political agreement on ASAP.
The Act in Support of Ammunition Production will boost the EU’s production capacity and replenish stocks.
This will speed up delivery of ammunition to Ukraine at this crucial stage of the war.

Many key legislative files must be concluded by end of the mandate.
And we must double down on:
