Full support for President Zelenskyi’s announcement of a ceasefire starting tonight. We urge Russia to respect it and stop the killing. We call on Russia to use this opportunity to demonstrate its commitment to peace and its willingness to return to negotiations.

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

This is Europe at its best 🇪🇺🇫🇮

Honouring these brave young men and women for their sense of duty, commitment, and dedication as they carry out their military service in the Finnish Defence Forces.

Thank you for your service to our Europe.

Again, last night, Russia struck Ukrainian cities, causing a large number of casualties — including children.

We consistently condemn these war crimes.

Russia is trying to exhaust Ukrainian resilience, but the people’s resolve to live free will not be broken.

[Alexander Stubb @alexstubb]

Together with Minister for Foreign Affairs @elinavaltonen we had an excellent call with @ZelenskyyUa.

We discussed the situation on the battle field, president Zelenskyi’s recent trip to the Gulf region and how to continue supporting Ukraine’s defence capabilities.

[Ville Niinistö @VilleNiinisto]

Unkarin vaalitulos näyttää ensimmäiseltä hyvältä asialta kansainvälisessä politiikassa pitkään aikaan.

Ehkä jälkikäteen tämä voi olla se hetki jossa kaikki alkoi kääntyä parempaan. Nyt on ainakin Euroopan unionilla sen tilaisuus ottaa johtajuutta maailman suunnasta.

[Alexander Stubb @alexstubb]

Among allies, issues are best resolved through discussion, not through pressure.

Strengthening Arctic security together with allies is very important for Finland. This is also the purpose of the Danish-led and allied-coordinated action in Greenland.

European countries stand united. We emphasize the principles of territorial integrity and sovereignty. We support Denmark and Greenland.

Dialogue with the United States continues. Tariffs would undermine the transatlantic relationship and risk a dangerous downward spiral.

It’s time to address water shortages in Europe.

Yesterday's Baltic Sea incident highlights threats to EU infrastructure.

We commend Finland’s swift action and stand with Finland, Estonia and Germany.

Together we will increase our common protection of European critical infrastructure including undersea cables.

@JessikaRoswall Välkommen till DG ENV, glad att vi har en svensk chef! #EU #Nordisk

[Jessika Roswall @JessikaRoswall]

Grateful for the broad support from the European Parliament's environment committee.

I look forward to working together to make progress on the environment, water resilience and a competitive circular economy.

Yksi syy miksi hakeuduin nykyisiin hommiin oli ymmärtää tätä globaalin turvallisuuden kannalta tärkeää megatrendiä. #UTP #ilmastonmuutos #ympäristökriisi #huoltovarmuus @ezhakala Lukusuositus: https://t.co/6oUr1RgTlV

A year after Hamas' shocking attack on Israel there's a risk of escalation in the Middle East.

The hostages must be released and access to humanitarian aid ensured. An immediate ceasefire is needed.

In the longer term, the conflict must be resolved in a sustainable manner.
International law holds the key to a solution that would keep both Palestinians and Israelis safe.

We must find a solution. There are no more excuses.

Kunnia puhua Ankarassa, Turkissa järjestetyssä Martti Ahtisaari Legacy -seminaarissa.

Martin persoona oli omintakeinen yhdistelmä empatiaa, optimismia ja realismia. Hänelle optimismi ei ollut vain asenne, vaan myös metodi. Näinä päivinä tarvitsemme enemmän hänen metodiaan ja tapaansa ajatella.

[Alexander Stubb @alexstubb]

Today in Türkiye for an official visit. In the afternoon I will meet President @RTErdogan in Ankara. I will discuss also with the Speaker of the Parliament Numan Kurtulmuş.

The visit began with a wreath-laying ceremony at the Atatürk Mausoleum. The programme also includes a speech at the Martti Ahtisaari Legacy Seminar and the book launch on the history of the Tatar community in Finland.

EU Special Envoy @TonyAgotha stressed the need to break silos on water, climate and environment issues @nytimes.

The #EU has good fundamentals in water quality and management and is stepping up its game even further with a new Commissioner for water resilience. #WaterWiseEU

Ilmastonmuutos on yksi maailman suurimmista haasteista. Meidän on vastattava siihen yhdessä.
Tarvitsemme YK:ta enemmän kuin koskaan.

Puhuin aamulla High Ambition Coalition (HAC) -maiden johtajien kokouksessa. HAC on kunnianhimoista ilmastopolitiikkaa ajavien maiden verkosto.
