We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.

NATO Allies stand in solidarity with Poland & denounce Russia’s reckless behaviour after the violation of Polish airspace by Russian drones. Allies are resolved to defend every inch of Allied territory. We'll closely monitor the situation, our air defences continually at the ready

From the online dictionary: Independence is the right of a nation to choose its own path, free from coercion and aggression. Today, we seize the occasion of the #UkraineIndependenceDay to honor - once again - the courage of Ukraine’s soldiers and people who fight every day to defend that right — a right violated, but never surrendered. Their heroism inspires us all. We look forward to the day when Ukraine will celebrate again, in peace, not only independence but the full and unconditional sovereignty it so courageously defends. #SlavaUkraini #СлаваУкраїні #StandWithUkraine #StrongerTogether

Een zeer indrukwekkend werkbezoek aan onze troepen in Litouwen. Samen met @UlysseEllian sprak ik met de vrouwen en mannen die het NAVO gebied verdedigen tegen Russische agressie. Wij zullen als VVD volop blijven investeren in onze veiligheid en in het beste materieel voor onze mensen.

Through struggle and discipline, persistence and faith, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. helped move this country forward. As we honor his legacy today, let’s remember the lesson he taught us: that even in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can help change it. In honor of #MLKDay, I hope you’ll do what you can in your community to create a better future for us all.

Deze week herdenken we de gitzwarte dag van 17 juli 2014. De #MH17-ramp schokte de wereld en kostte 298 levens, waaronder 196 Nederlanders. Voor velen van onze collega’s blijft het een pijnlijke en ingrijpende herinnering. ⬇️ rijksoverheid.nl/ministeries…
