Noterar att @magdandersson föreslår kvalificerad majoritet för fler beslut i EU:s utrikespolitik. Bra. Det har regeringen drivit länge.

Had the opportunity to speak with @jimsciutto last night on Swedens takeaways from the last few days. We are not out of the woods yet, it’s time for Europe to toughen up. Great talking to you @CNN

War is back in vogue and a zeal for war is spreading. The principle established after the Second World War, which prohibited nations from using force to violate the borders of others, has been completely undermined. #Peace is no longer sought as a gift and a desirable good in itself. Instead, peace is sought through weapons as a condition for asserting one’s own dominion. This gravely threatens the rule of law, which is the foundation of all peaceful civil coexistence. vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

Today’s Council decision to support the EU-Mercosur deal is historic. Europe is sending a strong signal. We are serious about creating growth, jobs and securing the interests of Europeans consumers and businesses. With Mercosur, we are creating a shared market of 700 million people. And so many new opportunities. Statement → link.europa.eu/vnM3QC

My comment on Grok/Bikini Gate

Having lived under Putin’s missiles & drones, it’s impossible to understand how Trump falls for this. There is one aggressor, Russia, which started the biggest & deadliest war in Europe since WWII. To end the war, the U.S. needs to do one thing: turn up the pressure on Russia.

We have just touched base with several leaders ahead of tomorrow’s meeting between President Trump and President Zelenskyy on peace talks. We welcome all efforts leading to our shared objective - a just and lasting peace that preserves Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. And that strengthens the country’s security and defence capabilities, as an integral part of the security of our continent. In 2026, the @EU_Commission will continue to keep up the pressure on the Kremlin, sustain our support to Ukraine, and work intensely to accompany Ukraine on its path toward EU membership.

This is as aggressive as it gets against a loyal ally - and against the Europeans giving it their support. 🇺🇸🇩🇰🇪🇺

I couldn’t do the first meeting yesterday in person, but i’m honored to be part of ⁦@KubiliusA advisory team on the future of European defence. euractiv.com/news/kubilius-…

I welcome the decision of the Council on our proposal to continue the immobilisation of Russian Sovereign Assets. We are sending a strong signal to Russia that as long as this brutal war of aggression continues, Russia’s costs will continue to rise. This is a powerful message to Ukraine: We want to make sure that our brave neighbour becomes even stronger on the battlefield and at the negotiating table.

In addition to the elements necessary for a just and lasting peace and Ukraine’s sovereignty: any agreement must include the return of Ukrainian children abducted by Russia. We will not rest until every single one of them is reunited with their families, in their homes.

Germany is the economic engine of Europe. When you thrive, so does Sweden. Happy to cooperate with Chancellor Merz on competiveness, security, defence and much more.

Is it a new attempt by Trump 🇺🇸 and Putin 🇷🇺 to do a Munich 2.0 agreement over the head of 🇺🇦? If that’s the case it’s bound to fail. Time for 🇪🇺🇬🇧 to step up again.

It’s outright shameful when 🇺🇸, after having made no contribution whatsoever to the reconstruction of 🇺🇦, demands 50% of all the profits from what reconstruction succeeds in building.

There are numerous directly absurd parts of the 🇺🇸 24 point plan. It says,to take one example, that 🇺🇸 should ”mediate” between 🇷🇺 and NATO. I was under the impression that 🇺🇸 was a member of NATO.

Russia is likely to test NATO’s collective defense pledge soon, Sweden’s top military official warned, as Moscow steps up its campaign of hybrid attacks against Europe. politi.co/3X3rCaz

Together with @eucopresident, we have spoken to President @ZelenskyyUA From day one, Europe has stood with Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression. We have been working for a just and sustainable peace with Ukraine and for Ukraine together with our friends and partners. Today we have discussed the current situation and we are clear that there should be nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine. As next steps, European leaders will meet tomorrow in the margins of G20 and then in Angola at the EU-AU meeting.

Just conveyed a Nordic-Baltic leaders call to discuss the way towards peace in Ukraine. We continue to coordinate closely and give our full support to Ukraine to ensure a just and lasting peace.

Swedish industry making us safer – in Sweden and around the world.

Touchdown in Stockholm and working dinner with @SwedishPM and Swedish companies. Europe is working hard on making more private capital available, so entrepreneurs can scale up in Europe. We are building a Savings and Investment Union learning from the positive experience of Sweden. At same time, we will accelerate the adoption of new technologies and increase R&D spending in Europe.
