Whether Putin dares to test Europeโ€™s defences depends on us. Today, EU Defence Ministers are meeting to discuss how to make use of the โ‚ฌ90 billion loan for Ukraine, as well as defence industry cooperation between the EU and Ukraine. Together with industry, we will focus on ramping up defence production. The funding is there. Now it is time to turn investment into capabilities โ€” faster and cheaper. At the European Defence Agency Steering Board, we will decide on strengthening the agency, with a greater focus on innovation and experimentation.

The European Parliament just voted to burn yet more public money on "security & defence." Appalling! The security we demand is the security of a decent job & a place to live. The defence we want is a defence of our rights. We reject a Europe that robs from the poor to bankroll slaughter.

With SAFE we are producing the capabilities Europe needs most. We will focus on pan-European projects from drones, cyber defence and air defence systems. For example, a comprehensive European Air Shield. It will be a strong symbol of ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ unity in defence.

EU Defence Ministers are meeting today to discuss Europeโ€™s security, from support for Ukraine to freedom of navigation in the Middle East. Ukraine is turning the tide of the war, and we are helping them, including by advancing the unblocking of โ‚ฌ6.6 billion through the European Peace Facility. The Middle East does not need another escalation. All parties must return to the negotiating table. My press remarks ahead of todayโ€™s meeting of EU Defence Ministers โ†“
