🇳🇱 Good to see both Amb. @AndreHaspels and @CoE Deputy Secretary General @TanjaGonggrijp in their new roles during today’s Committee Ministers!

[Alain Berset @alain_berset]

I welcome the ratification by the Netherlands of the Convention establishing an International Claims Commission for Ukraine. A further step towards holding Russia accountable for the damage caused by its war of aggression.

How does the @CoE #EuropeanSocialCharter work in practice?
How do its monitoring mechanisms function?
And what is the role of the CM?

In Monaco today for the Council of Europe's Committee of Ministers.

It was my pleasure this morning to receive the credentials of the new Ambassadors of Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Switzerland and the European Union.

I am encouraged by your strong support for our shared priorities: supporting Ukraine, advancing the New Democratic Pact for Europe, and continuing the reform of the Council of Europe so that it is better equipped to respond to today's rapidly evolving world.

今天是俄罗斯对乌克兰发动全面入侵四周年纪念日。请观看北京10位驻华大使联合发表的视频致辞，了解我们为何仍在继续战斗，以及我们究竟为何而战。On the 4th anniversary of 🇷🇺 full-scale invasion, a joint video by 10 Ambassadors to 🇨🇳 tells why we continue to fight & what we’re fighting for

Today we mark Ukraine’s 34th Independence Day 🇺🇦

Ukrainians have been bombed, robbed of their homes and even their children. And yet they persist and stand strong.

The Netherlands will remain firm in its support. Our commitment to a free and independent Ukraine is unshakeable.

Live from Beijing: one of the first Human - Humanoid Robot marathons! The event eventually had to limit the number of companies joining, as there was so much interest and so many different robotics companies willing to participate...

@ShefaliRazdan Traveling light Shefali😄. Bernie recognizes this!

[Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs 🇳🇱 @DutchMFA]

Today marks a 1000 days since Russia's large-scale invasion of #Ukraine. A brutal attack without justification. Despite the horrors of war, Ukraine is standing strong, its spirit unbroken. The Netherlands fully supports their courageous fight, for as long as it takes.

Great to meet with PM Schoof today in his office, het Torentje. Enough things to discuss, including our relationship with China. @NLinChina @MinPres

Na het enthousiaste commentaar uit Frankrijk en Brazilië over de prestatie van Femke Bol, nu ook de Chinese versie. Ook in China is de bliksemsnelle sprint van 'Bo'er' (博尔) niet onopgemerkt gebleven.
