Investing in water is investing in our economic security. The cost of doing nothing is too high.

This and more I talked about at today’s press conference in Cyprus.

I spoke with President Zelenskyy ahead of this week’s peace talks.

As we approach the 4th year of the brutal war against Ukraine, Russia continues to double down on war crimes, striking civilian infrastructure and homes.

Year after year, Europe’s support for Ukraine remains unwavering.

Denmark and Greenland are not alone.
Good to see my colleagues Troels Lund Poulsen and Vivian Motzfeldt.

Arctic security is a shared transatlantic interest, and one we can discuss with our US allies.
But tariff threats are not the way to go about this. Sovereignty is not for trade. (1/2)

Frågan är inte om vi har råd att sikta högre med bioekonomin, utan om vi har råd att låta bli. Detta är en investering i vår framtid och Sverige kan visa vägen.

Simplified rules while keeping strong action against global deforestation.

Simpler rules = more effective implementation, clarity for businesses, less burden for farmers & foresters, & more resilient, sustainable supply chains.

Air is the one resource that, if it was gone, we would miss instantly.
It is that fundamental to our survival.  
Yet, very often, we don't think of it at all.
