Einen frohen ersten Advent. 🕯️ From 🇩🇪Tyska St Gertruds kyrkan, where I was introduced to the German congregation today, I wish you a happy First Sunday of Advent.

Eventful first months at @TyskaAmbassaden. Conversations with 🇸🇪counterparts, high-level visitors and 🇩🇪 community underscore the importance of trust and cooperation on today’s security, environmental and global challenges. I look forward to strengthening our 🇩🇪🤝🇸🇪partnership.

Honored to speak at the meeting at 🇸🇪 Riksdag for action for the abducted Ukrainian children: The killing, abduction & forced indoctrination of 🇺🇦 children reveal the true purpose & monstrosity of Russia’s ongoing war of aggression. Russia must return these children to Ukraine!

🇩🇪 FM Wadephul said, talks between the US & 🇺🇦 on amending a 28-point plan had produced a decisive success for Europeans. On far-reaching support for Ukraine he added: For us the entire Baltic region is a key area on which the Bundeswehr will be focusing.

In honoring the innocent victims of the Societ genocide #Holodomor I joined Ambassador @svitlanaza and reaffirmed Germany’s continued support for Ukraine. 🇩🇪🇺🇦 #StandWithUkraine

"Russia’s attempts to divide Europe are failing. On the contrary, Russia’s war of aggression against #Ukraine is bringing us Europeans even closer together", @bundeskanzler Merz said yesterday on the occasion of his meeting with @SwedishPM Kristersson in Berlin. 1/2

Europeans need to lean into the EU & #NATO more. 🇩🇪 security expert ⁦@ConStelz⁩ Stelzenmüller stressed the continued importance of the transatlantic link. Insightful keynote prefacing debates on existential challenges we are facing at @KKrVA_Sverige.

In Berlin today. For Sweden, Germany is a strong Ally, partner and reliable friend in so many ways. Germany is also the largest foreign employer in Sweden, with some 98 000 Swedes working in German companies.

The signing of the new Memorandum of Understanding by 🇩🇪 Defence Minister #Pistorius and his 🇸🇪 counterpart @PlJonson aims to further strengthen this partnership – for enhanced collaboration, improved technology and interoperability. More👇

🇩🇪🤝🇸🇪 Germany’s close partnership with Sweden is a key focus at the 2025 Berlin Security Conference. Building on our shared values, our countries cooperate in multiple areas: from defence industry and cybersecurity to joint exercises in the #BalticSea. 1/2

Our close collaboration with Sweden reveals immense potential, esp. in security & military cooperation and defence industry. In our first meeting, we also discussed 🇩🇪 & 🇸🇪leadership in supporting #Ukraine and the introduction of the new military service following 🇸🇪’s model.

Thank you, Sweden, for your strong commitment to security & defence in Europe & #NATO and support of 🇺🇦. A pleasure to meet DefMin @PlJonson ahead of the Berlin Security Conference starting tomorrow, with Sweden as our Partner Country. Looking forward to a productive #BSC25. 🇸🇪🇩🇪

Honored to be received today by 🇸🇪 Foreign Minister @MariaStenergard. Sweden has given me an exceptionally warm welcome. The FM and I discussed our strong bilateral ties & further cooperation & exchanged views on current challenges. I look forward to continuing the dialogue. 🇩🇪🇸🇪
