Very good meeting with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif at #UNGA. The EU values its partnership with Pakistan. Our Strategic Engagement Plan reflects both the breadth of this partnership and the shared commitment to democracy, the rule of law, human rights and civic space. We work together on stability and security. We thanked the Prime Minister for his initiative to mediate in the conflict between the US and Iran. Pakistan is playing an important role in support of de-escalation, dialogue and peaceful resolution of conflicts. We discussed how to take our partnership forward, from trade to addressing illegal migration.

Hungary has taken important steps to strengthen the rule of law and protect the Union’s financial interests. And reforms deliver results. Today, we are proposing to unlock €4.2 billion and reopen the doors of Erasmus+ and Horizon Europe to Hungarian students and researchers. I am very glad that they will once again fully benefit from the opportunities our Union creates.

Greenland’s stunning landscapes and natural beauty will stay with me for a long time. But so will the visible scars of climate change on the ice sheet. As the ice melts, a new reality is taking shape. New trade routes, new security risks, new environmental concerns. Europe stands with Greenland. We will navigate these changes together.

In a session on the Middle East with regional partners. First, we need to ensure the full restoration of freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, without restrictions. Second, the events in the Strait have highlighted vulnerabilities that we need to adress. We should work together to alternative supply routes and new corridors, such as the IMEC. With better connectivity, we can transform vulnerabilities into opportunities. We also discussed Lebanon. Because a stable and peaceful Middle East requires a stable and peaceful Lebanon.

Our Union is not perfect, but it is a promise. That cooperation is stronger than confrontation. That law is stronger than force. Principles that apply not only to our European Union, but equally to Greenland.

We will never be able to match the sacrifice of the Ukrainian people. But we will support their fight for survival for as long as it takes. Because Ukraine’s security is our security. We already provided €193 bn in financial, military and humanitarian support. And we just agreed on €90 bn more for the next two years.

There is no justification for Hamas’ heinous act of terror. Israel has the right to defend itself. At the same time civilians in Gaza are also victims of Hamas. This is why we are tripling our humanitarian aid for Palestinians in need.

The people of Iran deserve freedom, dignity, and the right to decide their own future. Even if we know this will be fraught with danger and instability during and after the war. We are now seeing a regional conflict with unintended consequences. British military bases have been targeted in Cyprus. I want to reaffirm our full solidarity with Cyprus.
