Together, we are stronger 🇸🇪🤝🇩🇪
Swedish and German forces are training on the island of Gotland, strengthening NATO’s collective defence and their ability to operate side by side.
Training boosts readiness and helps ensure Allied forces can respond effectively when needed.
With the whole NATO Military Committee, we visited Kyiv, yesterday, to reaffirm unwavering support for #Ukraine.
Discussions with Major General Drapatyi, Commander-in-Chief of the 🇺🇦 Armed Forces, focussed on Ukraine’s military priorities and lessons learned to strengthen Allied preparedness for current and future threats.
While in Kyiv, the 32 Military Representatives and myself did not miss to pay our utmost respect at the Wall of Remembrance of the Fallen for Ukraine.
#NATO #StandWithUkraine #SlavaUkraini
From weapons and air defence systems to training, medical assistance, and long-term recovery projects, NATO will continue supporting Ukraine 🇺🇦
