This says a lot about the Turkish people and it’s one of the reasons I really enjoy living in Türkiye 😺🇹🇷

In Turkey, an elderly man who makes his living by shining shoes never turns away this little friend when a cat that shows up at the same time every morning asks to have its fur brushed.

I spoke with @RTErdogan about Iran and the security situation in the region.  We both agree on the importance of NATO’s 360-degree approach to security, and that we are always ready to deter and defend against any threat, from any direction.

Thank you, dear Grete @DKAMBinLT, for the warm hospitality this Saturday afternoon. It was a pleasure to meet friends of free Belarus in the beautiful garden of the Danish Embassy 🇩🇰 in Vilnius. Now I know what Danish 'hygge' really means!

For me, the Danish EU Presidency, which we have been working so hard for so long to prepare, truly started this week with this EU DG meeting in Aalborg. It feels great and I’m really excited for the next six months 🇪🇺🇩🇰

We’re not done. 1150 political prisoners remain behind bars. All must be released.

From day one of the war, the EU has stood by the side of Ukraine.

From day one of our mandate, we are reaffirming our unwavering support to the Ukrainian people.

Proud to be in Kyiv with @kajakallas and @Marta1Kos.

@VCmilyte @MsMariaOien Looking much forward to participating in the anniversary event in Copenhagen next week, organised by the 🇱🇹🇱🇻🇪🇪 embassies. Of course with a concert 🎶

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

I am grateful to the people of Denmark and the Danish government, led by @Statsmin Mette Frederiksen, for putting together the 20th military aid package to Ukraine.

I appreciate the implementation of our agreements, as well as Denmark's growing financial support for Ukraine's defense industry.

Denmark's contribution to funding weapons production in Ukraine will have reached $215 million. I thank Denmark—its people, parliament, and government—for their consistent leadership, which strengthens both countries and our entire Europe.

[Josep Borrell Fontelles @JosepBorrellF]

I have decided to convene informal meetings of EU Foreign Affairs and Defence Ministers in Brussels, after the summer break.

At today’s #FAC, EU Member States overwhelmingly criticized Hungary’s lack of sincere and loyal cooperation.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

For them, it is a pleasure to burn. We all know who we are dealing with. Russia is run by men who want to make it a norm – burning lives, destroying cities and villages, dividing people, and erasing national borders through war.

There is no nation that can stop such war alone, unaided. World leaders’ engagement is needed.

Does Russia want a dialogue? Ukraine has the world’s largest experience of lies from Russia during negotiations. And that’s exactly why global efforts are needed. The Global Peace Summit of the leaders whom Russia won’t be able to deceive.

Together with Switzerland, we are preparing for such a Summit. It starts on June 15th. More than eighty countries confirmed their attendance. And we continue to work with leaders, inviting them to join the Summit.

I am appealing to the leaders of the world who are still aside from the global efforts of the Global Peace Summit – to President Biden, the leader of the United States, and to President Xi, the leader of China. Please, show your leadership in advancing peace. Real peace, not just a pause between the strikes.

The efforts of the global majority are the best guarantee that all commitments will be fulfilled. Please support the Peace Summit with your personal leadership and participation.

Russia can lose. And it should lose, for the sake of the world – and for its own sake.
