The results from the University of Adelaide survey demonstrate Australians believe that stronger 🇪🇺-🇦🇺 ties would add to Australia’s prosperity and success. They see the EU as a trusted, reliable ally and a longstanding friend. Read the report here: iit.adelaide.edu.au/news/lis…

In Dutch towns and cities, cars aren't the go-to for daily trips. An European Commission survey revealed that 62% of Dutch residents primarily use bicycles or scooters (push or electric) for transportation, including trips to shops, schools, and work. europa.eu/eurobarometer/surv…

Today, the International Civil Aviation Organization has decided to hear the case of the Netherlands and Australia against Russia for the downing of flight #MH17. The rejection of the Russian objections by @ICAO is encouraging news for the loved ones of the victims. 1/2

"Companies providing #AI technology usually are two steps ahead of governments", says Dutch Foreign Minister @WBHoekstra. That's why we invite multiple perspectives to join the Summit and discuss #ResponsibleAI together.

At #COP27, a loss and damage fund was established, specifically for climate vulnerable countries. The Netherlands welcomes this first step towards rebuilding trust between the Global North and South. But this is not enough. More climate action is desperately needed.

Honoured and humbled to receive the Order of Prince Yaroslav the Wise from President @ZelenskyyUa. But let's be clear about one thing: it's the Ukrainian people and their army who deserve a medal for their bravery and perseverance.

We were delighted to host the visit from @UniUtrecht last week. We discussed strengthening research links in the context of the #SDGs. Prof Henk Kummeling, Rector Magnificus and Prof Mark Scott, VC, also took the opportunity to renew our student exchange agreement.

Russian attacks on #Ukraine cause huge destruction to buildings and people. The need for a register of damage is obvious. The NL co-facilitated a resolution that gives a green light for establishing such a register. Justice & accountability for Ukrainians are inching closer.

Today is Water Day💧at the #COP27. Minister @LSchreinemacher made a joint statement as co-host of the #UN2023WaterConference, together with 🇳🇱Youth Representative @sarahemyoey. It is now or never. We must put #WaterAction at the heart of climate action.
