It was good to meet with Secretary General of NATO 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.
