16 years ago today Russia invaded Georgia. It still occupies 20 percent of its territory.

Iceland supports Georgia's sovereignty & territorial integrity and stands in solidarity with the people of Georgia against malignant Russian efforts to undermine progress toward prosperity.

Leaving office after 8 years as President of Iceland. It's been a ride and a tremendous honour. Now the future awaits. Thank you 🇮🇸

I condemn the appalling assassination attempt against President Donald Trump and wish him a speedy recovery. Political violence has no place in our democratic society. We should fight with words, not weapons.
