Europe and Japan face many of the same security challenges. This is why our Security and Defence Partnership is so timely. At the EU-Japan summit, we agreed to deepen our close ties even further, including with a new Defence Industry Dialogue.

Thank you, President Xi, for hosting us in Beijing. Europe and China are global economic heavyweights. Our relationship matters globally, and it must work for both sides, for our people and our businesses. Let’s shape that future together ↓ x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Dear Premier Li, Europe believes in the power of free trade to drive prosperity. But it has to be fair. So we need to address market access, overcapacity and export control. Rebalancing is also in the interest of stronger 🇪🇺🇨🇳 relations ↓ x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

The EU-China cooperation on climate can set a global benchmark. So our joint press statement is an important step forward. We will work together to make COP30 a success.

Both Europe and China are committed to multilateralism and the UN Charter. So we raised the crucial issue of Russia’s war on Ukraine. We asked China to use its influence to bring Russia to accept a ceasefire, enter peace talks and put an end to the bloodshed.

Together with President von der Leyen, I came to Beijing to address a range of issues directly with China’s President Xi and Premier Li. The EU always prioritises open and constructive dialogue to find shared solutions. Dialogue and negotiation are in our DNA. That’s what we

Returning to Brussels from EU-Japan summit in Tokyo and EU-China summit in Beijing with Presidents von der Leyen and Costa + HRVP Kallas. This trip was a major effort by the EU team and a fitting ending for me in Brussels this time. 🇪🇺 washingtonpost.com/world/2025/07/…

Situationen i Gaza är helt förfärlig och Israel lever inte upp till sina mest basala skyldigheter och gjorda överenskommelser om nödhjälp. Sverige kräver därför att EU så snart som möjligt fryser handelsdelen i associeringsavtalet. Det ekonomiska trycket mot Israel måste öka.

Grateful to Denmark, Norway & Sweden for fast action to fund a package of US military support for Ukraine. This will deliver life-saving equipment & critical supplies to the front-line, strengthening Ukraine’s hand & helping them deter aggression as they pursue lasting peace.

Sweden stands firmly behind the ambition to strengthen Ukraine’s ability to defend itself against the Russian aggression. Continued access to US military equipment including air defence, specifically Patriot, is a crucial part of this. (1/3)
