NATO Secretary General with 🇺🇸 US Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken, 29 JAN 2024
Joint press conference by the NATO Secretary General, Jens Stoltenberg and the US Secretary of State, Antony J. Blinken, 29 January 2024.
🗣 | NATO Secretary General:
Thanks so much, Secretary Blinken, dear Tony,
Thank you for hosting me here in Washington.
It is always good to meet with you.
And even more important given the dangers we face.
So let me begin by offering my deepest condolences for the US troops killed and wounded in yesterday’s drone attack in Jordan.
We see Iran continue to destabilise the region.
Iran also bears responsibility for backing terrorists who attack our ships in the Red Sea.
Tehran’s behaviour reminds us of what a world without rules looks like:
Unpredictable and dangerous.
A world where our security becomes more expensive.
I welcome your tireless diplomacy, Secretary Blinken, to prevent further escalation of the war in Gaza.
Your efforts to alleviate human suffering.
And your hard work toward a peaceful resolution.
Russia’s brutal war against Ukraine is nearing the two-year mark.
And a Russian victory would embolden Iran, North Korea and China.
That matters for Europe’s security.
And it matters for America’s security.
So supporting Ukraine serves U.S. interests.
For a tiny fraction of annual defence spending, the United States has helped Ukraine destroy a major part of Russia’s combat capacity.
Without placing a single American soldier in harm’s way.
I welcome the clear commitment from President Biden and you.
To sustain U.S. support to Ukraine.
And to work with Congress to achieve that.
As you said, other Allies are also stepping up.
In fact, what European NATO Allies and Canada provide -
in terms of military, financial, and humanitarian aid -
actually exceeds what the U.S. is providing.
So truly joint effort from both sides of the Atlantic.
And I am confident that all NATO Allies will continue to deliver.
Because supporting Ukraine is not charity.
It is an investment in our own security.
President Putin started this war, and he could end it today - if he stopped attacking a neighbour.
The war could also end if Ukraine stopped defending itself,
But that would not mean peace.
It would mean Russian occupation.
And occupation is not peace.
A just peace will require President Putin to realise that he will not get what he wants on the battlefield.
Moscow must accept a negotiated solution where Ukraine prevails as a sovereign, independent nation.
What happens around the negotiating table is inextricably linked to the situation on the battlefield.
So if we want a lasting, just peace, we must provide Ukraine with more weapons and ammunition.
Weapons to Ukraine is the path to peace.
Finally, we also discussed adapting our Alliance for the future.
In July, we will mark NATO’s 75th anniversary with a Summit here in Washington.
And as you said, NATO is getting stronger and bigger.
Finland is already a member, Sweden will become a member soon.
And this demonstrates that Putin is getting exactly the opposite of what he wanted.
He wanted less NATO, a weaker NATO.
He’s getting a stronger NATO and a more united NATO and a NATO with more members.
At the Summit, we will take further steps to bolster NATO’s strength.
Invest more in our defence.
And work with partners around the world.
Through NATO, the U.S. has more friends and allies than any other power.
Together, we make up 50 percent of the world’s economic and military might.
China and Russia have nothing like NATO.
It is why they always try to undermine our unity.
In times of growing competition and rivalry.
NATO makes the U.S. stronger and safer.
And all of us more secure.
Secretary Blinken, dear Tony,
Thank you again for your personal commitment to our transatlantic bond and to our shared security.
Thank you.

Lol, This is a theoretical written on the page but all human beings can do anything to achieve their interest and no country wants to allow the other to progress. .We live in very dangerous, unpredictable and dynamic world *War cannot be avoided, it can only be postponed to the other's advantage"😂😢

U mean diplomacy..but what happens when diplomacy fails?
Russia provides technology not only Iran. Also to North Korea
"... including Ukraine which WILL become a member of NATO." That's the first time I've heard that said and clearly committed to. How..?? When Russia is still within Ukraine..?
Together ❤️

Make the land between russia and Ukraine apart of Ukraine but demilitarized. We did it for Åland. We have had that deal with Russia for over 100 years and it works.

This re-install faith back to me about NATO and the World for Ukraine Thank You
Pakistan ❤Gaza
Thank you! US Secretary Antony Blinken & Nato Secretary Jens Stoltenberg for working tirelessly on the global security & challenges of the ongoing 2 wars at this moment.
Peace
Thank you Erdogan for putting the impetus on Hungary's Orban. He will have to choose betwen being part of the EU or being allied with Russia. He cannot be both.
Lesson learned! Peace is fragile, Be over prepared and supplied for the unexpected
The volatile situation is not confined to the Middle East. It started with the war Russia launched against Ukraine and has extended to China with it's threats against Taiwan, North Korea against South, Iranian action against those on Pakistani soil and many others that are rarely or never monitored on mainstream TV.

Bring them freedom 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Peace on earth 🙏

Thank you for your steadfast leadership and service to all of us worried global citizens who pray for world peace--not WWIII. God Bless and keep you safe.

NATO is only theoretically strong. If there is no will to fight against the Russian / Iranian /North Korean alliance China will he encouraged to join this war alliance.

Europe also needs to significantly ramp up military manufacturing in their own countries as well as doubling the size of their armed forces through civilian soldiers joining reserve forces

They are all doing that. The invasion of Ukraine was the wake-up call for all those peaceniks in Europe who thought they could extend a loving hand full of flowers to Russia and all would be OK.
I love the NATO leadership
From day one you both have been strong and true.❤
This was good thank you. Everything makes more sense to me
Both sensible and great speech gentlemen. 🇨🇦
Stronger NATO, Stronger US, Stronger Civilized World, Peaceful and Safer Humankind.
Thank you, I'm agree with these speeches.
Love You, Jens. ❤❤❤ You are Just amazing..
Long live Palestine🇵🇸
We need actions not words!
I thank both of you gentlemen! I hope Ukraine can become a part of NATO soon. They deserve peace and freedom.

Blinken for US 2024 president
Secure our borders.
In regards of what is going on in the middle east and the threat of China invading Taiwan, why would we abandon the most high tech military base in Iraq that was located where we need one the most?
Blinken should run for president.
Thank you
I wish health, freedom and peace to the inhabitants of planet Earth.
It seems rather a shame Secretary Blinken could not name the three soldiers killed. NATO needs to step up and provide adequate support of material for Ukraine.

Two reasonable men. We definitely need such diplomatic reasonableness, rather than shortsighted rantings that foment more chaos and division in our dangerous world. Moving forward to Ukrainian victory is the path to a more stable world. Ukraine in NATO is our STAND.
