NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte:

Europe, with the UK and Turkey and Norway, is over 500 million people. We are facing an adversary in Russia of about 120 to 140 million people.

And we are now overly dependent on one ally with about 350 million people, making sure that we can defend ourselves against Russia. That's not sustainable long term. And that one ally cannot keep explaining this to its own public.

Athens, you brought the fire last night! Still buzzing. Keep the spirit alive follow up, stay loud, stay with us. Yeah!

For Orthodox Easter, Russia proposed a ceasefire. Only to intensify its brutal attacks on Ukraine - almost 8,000 violations of the ceasefire they proposed.

Now, a ceasefire proposed only to guarantee a pause for their Red Square celebrations.

Today’s air strikes on Ukraine once again show Russia is not serious when it talks of ceasefire or peace.

The only way to stop human suffering and allow space for meaningful peace talks is to stop the killing immediately and agree a long-term ceasefire.

Today, our partner, the UAE, was once again the target of a vicious missiles and drone attacks originating from Iran.

I extend my full solidarity to @MohamedBinZayed, the people of the UAE, and our partners across the Middle East.

These attacks are unacceptable and constitute a clear violation of sovereignty and international law.

Security in the region has direct consequences for Europe.

So we will keep working closely with our partners on de-escalation and diplomatic resolution, to bring an end to the Iranian regime’s brutal actions.

Both against its neighbors and its own people.

[U.S. Ambassador to NATO @USAmbNATO]

NATO 3.0’s value proposition is about Allies stepping up and turning commitments into capabilities. That means frigates, submarines, airplanes, and more. And not just for the Alliance–for the United States of America.

The ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz is deeply damaging. Getting global shipping moving is vital to ease cost of living pressures.

The UK has convened more than 40 nations who share our aim to restore freedom of navigation.

This week the UK and France will co-host a summit to advance work on a coordinated, independent, multinational plan to safeguard international shipping when the conflict ends.

The election result, although not yet complete, is understandable and clear.

The responsibility and opportunity of governance were not given to us. I congratulated the winning party.

Record turnout shows the democratic spirit of the Hungarian people. They have spoken—and their will is clear.

I look forward to working closely with @magyarpeterMP to make Europe stronger and more prosperous.

Hungary has chosen Europe.

Europe has always chosen Hungary.

A country reclaims its European path.

The Union grows stronger.

Magyarország Európát választotta.

Európa mindig Magyarországot választotta.

Egy ország visszatér az európai útjára.

Az Unió erősebbé válik.

I welcome the two-week ceasefire agreed by the United States and Iran last night.

We thank Pakistan for its mediation.

The aim now is to negotiate a lasting end to the war. We are in close coordination with our partners on this matter.
