From warm conversations to iconic Dutch treats including delicious bitterballen 🧆 and of course, cold Heineken, the evening was a perfect reflection of the strong and spirited ties between the Netherlands and the southeastern United States.

Tragic news at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport last night. Our thoughts are with the victims and their families. We wish them strength during this difficult time.

We also thank the people working the recovery efforts under such challenging conditions.

[Birgitta Tazelaar @NLAmbassadorUSA]

Today I witnessed a historic moment: the inauguration of President Donald Trump. I congratulate him and look forward to working with his administration to further strengthen economic & security collaboration between our nations, a relationship that dates back more than 400 years.

[Netherlands Embassy in the US 🇳🇱🇺🇸 @NLintheUSA]

Rest in peace, President Carter. Your legacy of compassion, service, and peace will inspire generations to come.

I watched in horror and with tremendous sadness the antisemitic scenes in Amsterdam last night. Such violence is appalling and has no place in our society. Dutch authorities have launched a major investigation and will hold those responsible to account.

[Birgitta Tazelaar @NLAmbassadorUSA]

Congratulations, President Donald Trump, on your return to the White House. As strong partners in political, economic, and cultural affairs, we look forward to deepening and broadening our collaboration.
The US and the Kingdom of the Netherlands have a partnership that works!
