A good meeting with Minister @claudiabauer_at in Vienna on EU enlargement, migration and a modern EU-budget. We work closely together on many of these issues, also in the EU. Important to stick together in a decisive period for Europe.

Eerste bestemming vandaag: Wenen. Met Europaminister @claudiabauer_at sprak ik over de toekomst van de EU, EU-uitbreiding, een modern EU budget en migratie. Onze landen werken nauw samen op veel van deze thema's, ook in de EU. Belangrijk om hierop voort te bouwen.

Vandaag bezoek ik Oostenrijk, Slowakije en Hongarije. Deze drie landen zijn belangrijke partners voor Nederland binnen de EU en NAVO, juist nu Europa voor grote keuzes staat over veiligheid, concurrentiekracht, energie, migratie en blijvende steun aan Oekraïne.

The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons paved the way for the negotiation of the #CTBT. Today, both contribute to collective peace & security. Bringing CTBT into force would mark a decisive step towards the NPT’s ultimate goal of a world free of nuclear weapons.

Belgium welcomes the adoption by the @iaeaorg Board of Governors of a resolution confirming that 🇷🇺’s attacks on 🇺🇦’s energy infrastructure, incl. electrical substations, present a direct risk to nuclear safety and security, and reiterates support for the IAEA’s expert missions.
Today marks 4 years of Russia’s reckless attack against and illegal seizure of Europe’s largest nuclear power plant ZNPP, gravely endangering nuclear safety and security. Russia must release detained #ZNPP staff and return the plant to Ukraine.

#EU follows developments in Iran & Middle East with utmost concern. Iran's attacks & violation of sovereignty of a number of countries in the region inexcusable. Iran must refrain from indiscriminate military strikes. We express solidarity with attacked & affected partners.
