“We are not at war, but we are not at peace either,” says @SecGenNATO. Though he is not sharing anything on a possible rise of 2 to 3% GDP - even raising the possibility of making the contribution more country-specific - he does underline the need to boost our industry. #Defence
These past 4 days, I mentored students at the interuniversity UNYA negotiations. Watching their growth, creativity, and teamwork in action was inspiring. I’m
honored to have been part of the @UAntwerpen team, led by Prof @DavidCriekemans, and to have met wonderful colleagues. 🙌
Today marked a highlight as we succesfully wrapped up the Formal #EPSCO 🇪🇺🇧🇪.
Our message was clear from the start: we need a Europe that cares, prepares and protects. I’m convinced that the work done these past 6 months reflects that motto, and I’m proud of our achieved result.
End of the first half-day of the Informal EPSCO on the topic of the health workforce challenges, presided by Minister Vandenbroucke. Great discussions and a will to move forward together. @EU2024BE @EU_Health@WHO_Europe@OECD_Social@RIZIV_INAMI @be_gezondheid @ZorgVlaanderen
