During my meeting with @MarkMitchellMP, I thanked New Zealand for participating in the Global Peace Summit and supporting Ukraine.

Following the successful summit, we discussed ways to advance the Peace Formula and New Zealand’s role in it.

We also focused on regional developments and global threats that our geographically distant, but friendly countries face. We are ready to counter them together.

For Māori, the rising of the Matariki star cluster ✨signals the Māori New Year. Also known as the Pleiades, it's depicted on the Nebra Sky Disc, which was found in Saxony-Anhalt, and was dated to 1800-1600 BCE. 🇩🇪
