“What is at stake in Ukraine goes far beyond Ukraine itself. This is a battle of a democracy that shares our democratic values and our European values against a dictatorship that violates the fundamental rights and freedoms of its people. The security and stability of Europe are threatened," declared Foreign Minister Hadja Lahbib in response to the Cabinet’s decision to allocate 200 million euros for the purchase of ammunition.

Minister Hadja Lahbib presented her policy note today in the Chamber Committee on Foreign Affairs. There was significant focus on Belgium’s role during the first half of the year of 2024 when it takes the Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
