Arrived in Fiji and met with PM Rabuka. We discussed shared values on multilateralism, a rules-based order & stronger Europe–Pacific ties. As well as his support for Ukraine and a stable Pacific region. We continue to partner with Fiji on climate resilience, food security & sustainable development.

🇳🇱🇳🇿🏳️‍🌈 The NL & NZ are partners in inclusion and equality. At #Wellington Pride, as Dutch Ambassador and a gay man, I emphasize the importance of looking ahead while celebrating progress. We thrive when everyone belongs. Despite global tensions, we stand for cooperation, shared values and human rights.

Exactly two years ago, Türkiye and Syria were hit by devastating earthquakes. Today, together with the Turkish Embassy, NGO NP2E, Minister Bruins, and the Mauritshuis, we paused to commemorate the thousands of people who lost their lives on that terrible day. 1/2

Saddened by the passing of President Carter, a true statesman and humanitarian. Meeting him 5 years ago was humbling—he was inspirational, inclusive, and forward-thinking. His legacy of peace and service through the Carter Center continues to inspire. Thank you, rest in peace. 🌸
