Day 3,670 of injustice for Ahmadreza Djalali and his family. They have endured cruel separation since April 2016, nearly ten. His supporters will keep his name in the light and continue to call for his release and return home to Sweden. #SaveAhmadreza @SwedishPM @MariaStenergard

72% of Europeans say their country benefits from EU membership.
With the global situation and the cost of living as main concerns, 73% view the EU as a stabilising force in an uncertain world.
Together we are greater than the sum of our parts.

It was good to meet with @SecGenNATO Mark Rutte today to speak about our support to Ukraine, Iran’s latest unprovoked attacks, and European defence readiness.
NATO is the cornerstone of European defence. We agree that we must work together on strengthening Europe's contribution to NATO. A more European NATO is long overdue.
EU Defence Ministers will discuss this in Brussels next week, including how to ramp up the European contribution.

Twenty-five states have now confirmed their intention to join the Enlarged Partial Agreement on the establishment of the Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression against Ukraine!
The coalition now includes 25 states, among them Ukraine and 24 other countries: Austria, Belgium, Costa Rica, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Latvia, Lichtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Republic of Moldova, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and United Kingdom.
The Agreement is expected to be adopted at the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers meeting on May 14–15 in Moldova.
For the first time since the Nuremberg Trials, countries are working together in a coordinated way to hold accountability for the crime of aggression. We urge all states in Europe and beyond to join this initiative!

U.S.-EU Memorandum of Understanding and Action Plan for Critical Minerals strengthen our supply chain resilience and support the downstream sectors vital to our industrial competitiveness. We agreed on the need for tangible projects that benefit both the EU and the U.S. @MarosSefcovic and I also discussed how we can best work together on implementing our joint commitments in the U.S.-EU Framework Agreement on Trade. We are stronger together.

Europe is not just about geography, it's also about the values and principles we share.
That’s why we are glad to welcome Canada at the European Political Community meeting today to discuss common issues.
We will be talking about connectivity, but also resilience to the threats we are all facing.

Today is a day of good news.
Congratulations to the EU Member States on reaching agreement on the 20th package of sanctions against Russia.
Europe will continue to increase pressure on the aggressor. We will go on supporting Ukraine with all necessary means.
This is a fight that belongs to all of us.
