The #Adriatic and the #Baltic are not distant waters — they are two flanks of the same European architecture. Had excellent political consultations in #Stockholm with DG @sohlstromt and marked #Croatia’s Statehood Day w/our #Swedish friends. Bonds between allied 🇭🇷&🇸🇪 stand firm.
Today, I write in @nytimes that the weak state of the Russian economy shows that Western sanctions are having a real impact. Putin’s aim to control Ukraine remains unchanged, but those of us who stand by Ukraine can – and we have – raised the costs significantly.

Hej! Welcome to Sweden 🇸🇪
Located in Northern Europe, with vast archipelagos and strong regional ties, Sweden sits at the heart of the Nordic region and is host to this week’s meeting of NATO Foreign Ministers in Helsingborg
#ForMin | @SweMFA | @MaxVillman
Održali smo redoviti radni susret s veleposlanicima država članica EU-a u 🇭🇷, organiziranom u povodu @CY2026EU.
➡️Razmotrili smo aktualne političke i gospodarske teme na europskoj i globalnoj razini, uključujući jačanje konkurentnosti 🇪🇺 gospodarstva, energetsku sigurnost, ublažavanje posljedica krize uzrokovane ratovima u #Ukraine i na Bliskom istoku te stanje na jugoistoku Europe.
➡️Uspješan summit i poslovni forum @3seaseu u Dubrovniku potvrdili su stratešku važnost jačanja povezivosti u smjeru sjever–jug. Najavio sam i summit skupine #MED9 u Splitu.
➡️Ususret općim izborima u Bosni i Hercegovini u listopadu, naglasio sam važnost poštivanja jednakopravnosti i legitimne zastupljenosti triju konstitutivnih naroda u Predsjedništvu i drugim institucijama 🇧🇦.
➡️Povoljan makroekonomski i fiskalni položaj Hrvatske potvrđuju stabilan gospodarski rast, investicijski kreditni rejting 🅰️ razine, kao i napredak Hrvatske u procesu pristupanja @OECD. Nastavljamo provoditi mjere @VladaRH za zaštitu građana i gospodarstva od inflatornih pritisaka, uz očuvanje fiskalne stabilnosti i konkurentnosti.
➡️Osvrnuli smo se i na 1,7 milijardi € vrijedan zajam iz Instrumenta #SAFE, koji omogućuje snažan iskorak u modernizaciji #HV te daljnje jačanje nacionalnih i europskih obrambenih sposobnosti u aktualnim geopolitičkim okolnostima.

Supporting Ukraine 🇺🇦 is a priority for 🇸🇪🇭🇷 🇪🇺. As a follow-up to the Int’l Veterans Conference in Split it was an honour to host a fantastic group of dedicated experts & practitioners working to support Ukrainian #veterans, building on Croatia’s experience from its war.
Dear @grlicradman,
I look forward to welcoming you along with the EU colleagues and @kajakallas in Kyiv.
Your visit comes at a crucial moment. Accountability for Russia’s war crimes must be ensured — this is fundamental for any just peace.
We also appreciate Croatia’s concrete leadership, together with Sweden, in advancing support for Ukrainian veterans. This is a critical dimension of our resilience.
See you in Kyiv!
#Ukraine’s EU-membership on agenda @Europarl_HR today. Great discussion and show of unity from 🇭🇷🇺🇦🇪🇺 parliamentarians and experts.
As many as 91% of Swedes 🇸🇪 support Ukraine’s EU-accession once membership criteria have been met @EurobarometerEU
Sports! Building connections, friendships, trust and shared moments. 🇸🇪♥️🇭🇷🤾♀️🤾♂️
Ever since 1976 (!) youngsters from 🇭🇷 have been travelling to the international #Handball Partille World Cup in Gothenburg 🇸🇪. Looking forward to 50 more!!
Nordic Day on 2️⃣3️⃣ March celebrates the world’s oldest regional cooperation. In this video, Nordic Ambassadors in Croatia talk about how working together is key to building the most sustainable and integrated region by 2030. #NordicDay#NordicCooperation 🇩🇰 🇫🇮 🇮🇸 🇳🇴 🇸🇪
At the opening of Club of Venice’s StratCom meeting in Zagreb @MFA_Croatia with my 🇭🇷 counterpart in 🇸🇪 Ambassador @GrgicSinisa. Topic: Reinforcing Strategic Communications in a rapidly changing geopolitical landscape
Pleasure to join discussion on strengthening European 🇪🇺 defence thru joint investments, joint procurements and cooperation w/ industry. Win-win together at European level, 🇸🇪&🇭🇷 and w/ strategic partners. Coordination also strengthens interoperability in both #EU and #NATO.
Voditeljica @Europarl_HR@MajaLjubic: "Prema istraživanjima @EurobarometerEU, devet od deset ispitanika mišljenja je da bi države članice trebale nastupiti s više jedinstva, a tri četvrtine se slaže da Unija treba više resursa za odgovor na globalne izazove."
Marking four years since Russia launched its full‑scale invasion of Ukraine in @GradZagrebHr.
🇸🇪 🇭🇷 & 🇪🇺 will together continue to support 🇺🇦 in achieving a just and lasting peace, essential for Ukraine’s future and Europe’s long-term security.
Today, Sweden has announced its largest defense assistance package for Ukraine — nearly $1.4 billion. This will significantly strengthen our soldiers on the battlefield and help protect our skies from wicked Russian air attacks on critical infrastructure.
Sweden is among the staunchest supporters of Ukraine’s defense capabilities, and this package builds on our historic agreement on Gripen aircraft and broader defense cooperation.
Thank you to @SwedishPM, @PlJonson, the Government, and the people of Sweden for this meaningful contribution to the defense of life.
