Today, I met with Mozambique’s President Daniel Chapo. We discussed the EU’s support to the country after the recent devastating floods, as well as our Global Gateway investments in clean energy and digital connectivity. I also emphasized that attracting more European investment requires a good business environment, political stability and continued reforms. This is how we can create new jobs and economic opportunities for people in Mozambique.

Iran’s attacks of a number of countries in the Middle East are inexcusable. The events must not lead to further escalation that could threaten the region, Europe and beyond, with unpredictable consequences. We are taking all necessary steps to ensure the safety of EU citizens in the region. The EU expresses its solidarity with partners that have been attacked or affected. We will continue to contribute to all diplomatic efforts to reduce tensions and bring about a lasting solution to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.

The latest developments across the Middle East are perilous. Iran’s regime has killed thousands. Its ballistic missile and nuclear programmes, along with support for terror groups, pose a serious threat to global security. The EU has adopted strong sanctions against Iran and supported diplomatic solutions, including on the nuclear issue. I have spoken to Israel’s Foreign Minister Saar and other ministers in the region. The EU is also coordinating closely with Arab partners to explore diplomatic paths. Protection of civilians and international humanitarian law is a priority. Our consular network is fully engaged in facilitating departures for EU citizens. Non-essential EU personnel are being withdrawn from the region. Our Aspides naval mission remains on high alert in the Red Sea and stands ready to help keep the maritime corridor open.







Four years into its war in Ukraine, Russia is not winning. By any measure, Moscow’s invasion is a total strategic failure. Within the Coalition of the Willing, we are clear that the fastest way to end the war is to increase support for Ukraine and intensify pressure on Russia. Going after Russia shadow tanker fleet decimates Moscow’s war chest. We must also flip the script in peace talks, away from pressure on Ukraine, to what Russia must to do for lasting peace in Europe.
