Clinton and Macinka clashed at MSC in a debate about Trump. The difference between them was like heaven and hell. Clinton criticized Trump for ICE and Ukraine. Macinka defended him, saying he was just reacting to the “gender revolution,” to which Clinton replied with a question: does he really fear more gender than war? Just 3.5 years.

Thank you Enrico Letta for this important discussion on building European Defence Union. Defence readiness starts with material readiness, but does not end here. We need political & institutional readiness. Defence industry fragmentation is economic & national security issue. #MSC2026

🧵On Thursday, we voted on an important report calling on the Commission to limit subcontracting and regulate labour intermediaries. We know the reality: companies increasingly use these models to cut cost and push workers into job insecurity. 1/3

Good meeting with Lindsey Graham and a bipartisan delegation of US Senators. Now is the time to raise the costs of Russia’s war higher than ever. To bring Putin to the negotiating table with genuine intent. Sanctions work. And they work best when coordinated.

At @munsecconf.bsky.social we confronted the reality: food is used as a battlefield instrument Targeted attacks, market manipulation & supply disruptions have reshaped global food systems Food has become a tool in geopolitical power plays ➡️ We see it with Russia’s use of grain as its “second oil”

Always good to speak with 🇮🇹 Minister of Foreign Affairs Antonio Tajani. We exchanged on EU politics, economy and competitiveness.

Five European nations have determined that Russia poisoned Alexei Navalny. This was a cowardly act from a frightened leader. Russia has long acted as a terrorist state, relying on terrorist methods. 
Poisoning political opponents.
Silencing journalists.
Invading peaceful neighbors.

🧵The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement force, also known as ICE, is responsible for killing at least 40 people in 2025 and 2026. This paramilitary force has been granted a 7-fold budgetary increase, meaning that its funding now amounts to 75 billion dollars, 1/7

Great to see Senator @whitehouse.senate.gov again. We had a good conversation on geopolitics, transatlantic relations and climate policy. I am looking forward to my visit to US later this year.

No European country will defend itself alone," Zelensky says in Munich. Therefore Putin is investing in breaking up our unity. One of his "investments" is also being used in the Czech government, which now rejects the ammunition initiative and joins Orbán and Fico, who are not participating in the just approved EU loan to Ukraine.

Discussions at @munsecconf.bsky.social this year make it clear: Europe must step up. 📌 We must become more competitive economically and stronger in defence – in close partnership with our #NATO allies and standing firmly with #Ukraine. The @ec.europa.eu is driving this agenda. #MSC2026

Always great to meet Jonas Gahr Støre Challenging times are faced by partners together. This is why we need the EU-Norway partnership to grow stronger than ever. We are now deepening our cooperation on the Arctic and Arctic security, both bilaterally and as partners in NATO.

Good to catch up with Alexander Dobrindt, 🇩🇪 Minister of Interior, on migration, German and European politics.

We value our longstanding good cooperation with the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, I told President Barzani in the margins of #MSC2026 We welcome your efforts on de-escalation in Northeast Syria, dialogue and humanitarian passage.

Very good meeting with Dr. Sultan Al Jaber. We appreciate the United Arab Emirates’ engagement in hosting peace talks and supporting the reconstruction of Ukraine.

🇧🇷 Brazil is a benchmark in the fight for rights and social justice in Latin America. Yesterday I participated in Madrid at the 46th anniversary of @pt.org.br. 46 years are not improvised: they are coherence, organization and commitment to democracy and to the working people.
