Happy birthday USA! 🥳I am so happy to share this little post, this little message of congratulations from myself & 🇮🇸 PM @KristrunFrosta to 🇺🇸 on your #250th! @SecRubio @WhiteHouse

I am shocked by last night’s shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner and deeply relieved that President Trump, the First Lady, guests, and staff are safe. An attack on journalists and democratic institutions is an attack on democracy itself and the free press.

Today marks four years of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

For four years the Ukrainian people have bravely defended their homes, their freedom and independence.

Iceland stands with Ukraine and its people.

Iceland stands firmly with Ukraine🇺🇦🇮🇸

[Þorgerður Katrín Gunnarsdóttir @thorgkatrin]

Today @UN_HCR, I reiterated that for four long years the people of Ukraine have endured the unimaginable—facing winter without reliable heat or light. If Russia stopped fighting today, this war would end. Iceland stands, & will continue to stand, in full solidarity with Ukraine.
