Starting my mission to the Netherlands w/meeting 🇳🇱 National Defence Committee.

Politicians are the driving force behind key decisions on national & EU #DefenceReadiness.

I welcome 🇳🇱 commitment to 🇺🇦, ramp-up of 🇪🇺 defence industry & more resilience.

Sometimes, to achieve more we need less - less complication, less red tape.
