Een gezamenlijke videoboodschap van de drie ๐ง๐ช๐ณ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐บ premiers tijdens het debat van het Benelux-parlement over de toekomst van de Benelux-samenwerking.
Luxemburg is sinds jaar en dag een belangrijke partner voor Nederland. We werken nauw samen op veel verschillende niveaus, waaronder binnen de Benelux, de EU en de NAVO. Ook zijn we eensgezind in onze volle steun aan Oekraรฏne. Vanmiddag had ik een prettige kennismaking met premier @LucFrieden. We spraken onder meer over de uitstekende relatie tussen onze landen, over onze niet-aflatende steun aan Oekraรฏne en over prioriteiten op de Europese agenda.

This year Luxembourg and the Netherlands are celebrating 135 years of strong diplomatic ties.
We work closely within the Benelux, EU and NATO. This afternoon I had a good introductory meeting with Prime Minister @LucFrieden. Our paths will cross frequently, starting with the upcoming European Council.
Our discussion included the excellent relations between our countries, our unwavering support for Ukraine, and priorities for the Benelux and European agendas.

I had warm introductory calls with @kajakallas, @prevotmaxime, @Xavier_Bettel and @AussenMinDE. Good, open exchanges about how we can advance our shared ambitions.
A good start. Looking forward to working together!
Congratulations to @MinPres Rob Jetten on becoming Prime Minister of the Netherlands. I look forward to working together in the same spirit of good relations and like-minded outlook that unites our two countries.
Thank you to Dick Schoof for the friendship and excellent cooperation during your tenure. Wishing you all the best for the future.

@OPCW ยดs yearly Conference of States Parties. On top of the agenda are i.a. the destruction of the Assad era chemical weapons stocks in Syria, and the appointment of a new DG. @OPCW remains a crucial building block of the disarmement pillar of the multilateral rules-based order.
Good to catch up with my friend @RobJetten during my stay in The Hague for the Grand-Ducal courtesy visit to the Netherlands. Congratulations again on your election victory - a sign that constructive politics can still win over populism. XB
