Russia’s baseless threats against #Latvia and the Baltic States at the UN are completely unacceptable.

The UK stands firmly with our Baltic Allies and in defence of European security - a threat to one @NATO Ally is a threat to us all.

[British Ambassador to Ukraine 🇬🇧🇺🇦 @UKAmbUkraine]

Today, we remember the 1944 forced deportation of the Crimean Tatars, the indigenous people of Crimea, by the Soviet regime.

We honour the memory of the victims and stand in solidarity with Crimean Tatars and all Ukrainians resisting Russian aggression today.

The ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz is deeply damaging. Getting global shipping moving is vital to ease cost of living pressures.

The UK has convened more than 40 nations who share our aim to restore freedom of navigation.

This week the UK and France will co-host a summit to advance work on a coordinated, independent, multinational plan to safeguard international shipping when the conflict ends.

NATO was founded 77 years ago today.

The UK is a proud member of the most effective security alliance in history 🇬🇧

[Alexander Stubb @alexstubb]

The day of the JEF Leaders’ Summit in Helsinki started with a bilateral meeting with British Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer.

The United Kingdom is a highly valued strategic partner and ally for Finland. It was a great pleasure to continue our discussions on current foreign and security policy issues, as well as European security. We last spoke about a week ago in London.

We appreciate the UK's leadership as the framework nation for the JEF. The UK has shown its strong commitment to our cooperation and to our region.

We will back you.

We will defend you.

We will fight with you in this new era of threat and hard power.

Defence Secretary @JohnHealey_MP 🇬🇧 has a clear message for #NATO Allies as he arrives in Brussels this morning

[John Healey @JohnHealey_MP]

Britain is providing an extra half a billion pounds in urgent air defence to Ukraine and will play a central part in NATO’s Arctic security mission.

This is how we are stepping up in this new era of threat and hard power 👇

[Ministry of Defence 🇬🇧 @DefenceHQ]

Britain’s strategic strength is reinforced through our alliances.

The threats we face demand that we are ready to operate together when it matters most.

#WeAreNATO

[Ministry of Defence 🇬🇧 @DefenceHQ]

The UK is set to deliver an additional 1,000 Lightweight Multirole Missiles, manufactured in Belfast, that will be critical to defending Ukrainian infrastructure and cities from Russia’s escalating drone and missile attacks.

The UK is ironclad in our commitment to Ukraine.

[John Healey @JohnHealey_MP]

NATO’s Article 5 has only been triggered once. The UK and NATO allies answered the US call. And more than 450 British personnel lost their lives in Afghanistan.

Those British troops should be remembered for who they were: heroes who gave their lives in service of our nation.

❝NATO remains the single most effective and successful military alliance the world has ever known❞

Arctic security is vital for Britain and NATO.

As threats increase, Britain is stepping up.

Great to join @EspenBarthEide at Camp Viking to see the work of @royalmarines with Norway and sign a new agreement on tackling the Russian Shadow Fleet.

[Yvette Cooper @YvetteCooperMP]

Finland is on the front line of Moscow's hybrid threats in the Arctic. From their reckless shadow fleet to attacks on vital undersea cables.

Speaking to @AlexStubb and @ElinaValtonen, we committed to standing firm against this aggression and protecting Arctic security.

[UK Joint Delegation to NATO @UKNATO]

@YvetteCooperMP tours the Arctic Circle and pledges support to allies in the High North

Just concluded our meeting of Foreign Ministers

We face real & lasting dangers: Russia continues its brutal war against Ukraine & demonstrates increasingly reckless behaviour when it comes to NATO

This shows that we need to remain vigilant – NATO must & will continue to respond with strength, unity & resolve
