EU and Guatemala are close partners. On 10 June, we held our second bilateral consultations in Brussels, building on the momentum of President Costa’s visit to Guatemala in May, where we reaffirmed our shared commitment to democracy and the rule of law. Discussions focused on multilateralism, regional integration, human rights, sustainable investment opportunities, Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, and the situation in Haiti.

Enough is enough. Time for a ceasefire now. This week all UN Security Council members—except one—were united in calling for a full, immediate, and unconditional ceasefire. As did Ukraine. Russia remains the only obstacle to peace. We urge it to abide by UNSC members' call. Now.

Tomorrow, 10 June, leaders from the EU and the Republic of Korea (RoK) will meet in Brussels for the 11th EU–RoK Summit.

As efforts continue to preserve the ceasefire agreement between Lebanon and Israel, another @UNIFIL_ peacekeeper was killed on 4 June.

Across Europe, member states pursue efforts to follow the Paris Agreement objectives. @DanishMFA @GermanyDiplo @francediplo_EN @SweMFA @DutchMFA

A temporary overshoot of the 1.5°C Paris Agreement target is now highly likely. Annual average global temperatures have already exceeded 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for the first time. This is not only a climate emergency. It is a security one. As long as Europe depends on fossil fuel imports, it is exposed to price shocks, supply disruptions, and geopolitical pressure. In just 60 days of conflict in the Middle East, the EU's fossil fuel import bill rose by over €27 billion. That is not an energy statistic. It is a security cost. Tony Agotha, the EU's Special Envoy for Climate and Environment, works at exactly this intersection. Getting back below 1.5°C is the goal. Reducing fossil fuel dependence makes Europe more secure in the process. EU emissions are down more than 37% since 1990. GDP has grown by over 70%. In 2025, renewables generated more EU electricity than fossil fuels for the first time. Every fraction of a degree avoided still matters. Reliable. And that's the whole point.
