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.

There is hope that this moment can open a path towards a free Iran. That is what the Iranian people deserve : freedom, dignity, and the right to decide their own future. But allow me to make one important point. Seeing the world as it is in no way diminishes our determination to fight for the world we want.

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.

In Kyiv for the tenth time since the start of the war. To reaffirm that Europe stands unwaveringly with Ukraine, financially, militarily, and through this harsh winter.

Peace on Ukraine’s terms.

Aujourd’hui sur les Champs-Élysées, nous célébrons la liberté, héritage chéri de la France. Nous le savons ; il n’y pas de liberté sans défense. Pas de paix durable sans force de la préserver. Je remercie la France pour son engagement. Car l'armée française fait la force de l’Europe. Et protège la liberté de notre Union tout entière.

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.

The situation in the Middle East remains volatile. But three things are clear: First, there is renewed hope for the long-suffering people of Iran. We strongly support their right to determine their own future. Second, we must do everything possible to de-escalate and stop the conflict spreading. Iran must cease its reckless and indiscriminate attacks on its neighbours and sovereign countries. Third, the stability of the region is of the utmost importance. The only lasting resolution is a diplomatic one. This means a credible transition for Iran which includes the halt to both the nuclear and ballistic programmes, as well as an end to destabilising action in the region. This afternoon, we will discuss the overall situation in the meeting of the Security College. Because from energy to nuclear, migration to security, Europe must be prepared for the fall-out from recent events.

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.

Europe is ready to negotiate with the US. We have offered zero-for-zero tariffs for industrial goods. Because we're always ready for a good deal. But we’re also prepared to respond with countermeasures. And protect ourselves against indirect effects through trade diversion.
