Together, we can achieve a huge amount for the betterment of Europe and for the world.

Hong Kong was for many years a bastion of liberty and paragon of prosperity.
The UK won’t rest until Hong Kong has its freedoms back.
The world is watching how China behaves.

Today is 25 years since the handover of Hong Kong to China.
Beijing has abandoned its legally binding commitment to uphold Hong Kong’s rights and freedoms. The UK will continue to hold China to account for its actions.

Important discussion with @NATO Special Representative for Women and fellow female foreign ministers.
Freedom - and freedom for women in particular - cannot be taken for granted.
Every generation must fight for it and we will.

Inspiring to have @ZelenskyyUa at the #NATOSummit today. We stand in solidarity with Ukraine’s fight for freedom and self-determination. Now is the time to double down and ensure Ukraine defeats Russia so President Zelenskyy can negotiate from a position of strength.
291
Russia’s invasion is the biggest threat faced by the free world in decades. We must be united to ensure Ukraine wins, deter aggressors like China and extend @NATO’s influence.
Watch as I set out a vision for a global @NATO to tackle the threats we face. youtube.com/watch?v=BAKpO4…

Great to be with Finland and Sweden colleagues @Haavisto @AnnLinde tonight to mark news they are joining @NATO.
We need a strong, united NATO to deter aggressors in an increasingly geopolitical world. 🇬🇧🇸🇪🇫🇮 #NATOSummit #WeAreNATO

At the #NATOSummit in Madrid this week we must not only ensure @NATO remains the cornerstone of Europe’s defence but also has the resources to adopt a more global role, tackling the threats we face including from an increasingly assertive China.

Tonight @HouseofCommons has backed the NI Protocol Bill.
It provides practical solutions to problems caused by the Protocol and protects the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement.
While a negotiated outcome remains our preference - the EU must accept changes to the Protocol itself.

This is a shocking and barbaric attack on innocent civilians and my thoughts are with all those affected. twitter.com/DmytroKuleba/s…

Putin is using hunger as a weapon of war and we cannot allow his blockade of Ukrainian grain to continue.

NI Protocol Bill returns for 2nd reading today.
It will fix problems the Protocol has created in Northern Ireland & uphold the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement. Our preference remains a negotiated outcome, but EU continues to rule out change to Protocol👇

The NI Protocol is undermining the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement. The EU are unwilling to change the Protocol, therefore we must act.
Read my @FT piece on how our legislation will fix the practical problems the Protocol is causing👇
