Morning News: India really is a big geopolitical and economic player here in the region. So when we talk about Indo-Pacific stability and security we cannot do without India. @LSchreinemacher

Minister @LSchreinemacher had a great visit to @MazagonDockLtd & tour of facility. She was impressed with the existing cooperation with Dutch maritime companies & projects at the facility.
She spoke about Dutch expertise in the maritime field where 🇮🇳🇳🇱 can further collaborate
🇳🇱🇮🇳 Delighted to see the Netherlands' Naval frigate #ZrMsTromp in Indian waters.
As the Indo-Pacific region gains economic importance & geopolitical gravitas, it's great to have European friends like the #Netherlands upholding freedom of navigation and overflight in line with the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (#UNCLOS), alongside regional partners like India.

🇳🇱 🇮🇳 Grateful to attend the "RESILIENCE" panel by @NLinMumbai & @t_vanhelden where @Aastha82 from @mid_day and @supreetksingh from @TheSafecityApp illuminated inclusive feminism in art, cinema, media & beyond. The profound discussion underscored that while impactful progression has been made, together we must push further to uplift female voices across all platforms.
The Netherlands has demonstrated deep commitment to promoting equal rights by allocating 500 million euros towards global gender equality initiatives through 2025 for the SDG5 Fund. Meanwhile, as the world's 5th largest economy and largest democracy, India takes bold steps like legally reserving 33% of seats for women legislators. Currently India host 1.4 million (46%) elected female representives at Rural local levels.
The progress reflects shared vision — that both India and the Netherlands serve as inspirations in women's empowerment. By pushing boundaries together, our alliance can mobilize the collective responsibility ahead to equalize female voices across global platforms, progressing sustainable prosperity.
