We discussed cooperation for the sake of Europe’s energy security. Russia must lose any leverage over our partners and channels for earning money to continue the war against Ukraine. We have clear proposals on how to do this together with international partners.

💔 Two 16-year-old boys from Melitopol were tortured to death in Russian captivity.

Danylo Dakhov and Pavlo Hrymak were detained in Aug 2023, accused of participating in the sabotage movement.

At the end of May 2024, the parents were informed that the boys had somehow died, "exploding on a bomb."

It is my absolute conviction that it will not be a one-front war.

China will probably first call their junior partner, the famous paper tiger in Moscow, and ask him to attack somewhere in NATO territory here in Europe.

🤔 Rutte: Why would you shoot down a plane which is not posing a direct threat? That would be silly.

NATO is infinitely stronger, more stronger than Russia will ever be. Russia is not bigger than the economy of Texas.

It is not bigger than the combined economies of the Dutch and the Belgians.

❗️🇧🇪 According to Belgian Defense Minister, NATO countries are indeed discussing new rules that would make it easier to shoot down Russian planes and drones if they violate the Alliance's airspace. It also includes countering ships, etc.
