There is a need for the European Union to use all potential we have on defense cooperation.

The European Union will never see America, or an American president, as a risk.

The European Union remains a staunch supporter of the ICC and is committed to full co-operation on the prevention of serious crimes falling under the jurisdiction of the Court.

Indeed, our British friends have decided to leave us - which is very sad for all of us - but life goes on, and the European Union as well goes on.

The European Union will continue to fully support multilateral global governance based on international law, human rights, and strong international institutions.

This can sound as something naive. But if we are together in this union, it's because we choose to be one in many things. That's what makes the European Union experience so challenging and also a model. Why did we do this choice? Because we see that we share a common interest and common values.
