It wasn’t a bad day for 🇺🇸 diplomacy - it was disastrous. And it follows a string of disasters from caving in to 🇷🇺 demands before talks, over the shameful 🇺🇳 vote and Trump’s talk of Zelenskyy as ”dictator”. 🇺🇸 is burning credibility - bad for us all. thehill.com/homenews/house…

It’s certainly an innovative approach to a negotiation to make very major concessions even before they have started. Not even Chamberlain went that low in 1938. That Munich ended very bad anyhow.

Outraged by the news that the Rapid Support Forces have destroyed the Sultan Ali Dinar Palace in El Fasher, #darfur #sudan. A despicable attack on 🇸🇩 cultural identity and history underlines a broader agenda to destabilise the social fabric! g.co/kgs/Wzo6yEk

For the 2nd time in 18 months a US carrier sailed into the Oslo fjord as part of a training exercise with #NATO partners. On board of USS Harry S. Truman we are reminded that in turbulent geopolitical times, NATO stands together! @NLinNorway @NorwayMFA @DutchMFA @NLDefatNordics

Ambassador @Inescoppoolse presented her credentials to @PresidentISL. #Iceland and NL have strong ties, not only economically but also as NATO allies. A growing number of Icelandic students find their way to NL universities, and more tourists from the NL find their way to Iceland
