It is more dangerous, it is more contested and it makes it all the more important that Nato allies work together to safeguard our freedom and security,” he says.He stresses that “Russia remains the most direct threat to Euro-Atlantic security,” not just for its actions in Ukraine, but over “persistent and growing attempts to underming our security and stability” in the alliance.He says the question for member states is not on “whether we need to do more; the question is, how quickly allies can turn commitments into capabilities.”He puts a positive spin on the recent US decisions to reduce its presence in Europe, saying it is a “transformation to a stronger Europe in a stronger Nato,” “moving away from unhealthy overalliance on one ally.”Tusk, Magyar brief media after talks in WarsawSeparately, if you want to follow a press conference between Poland’s Donald Tusk and Hungary’s Péter Magyar from Warsaw, you can do it here.Donald Tusk and Peter Magyar deliver joint remarks in Warsaw - watch liveNato's Rutte briefing press ahead of Nato ministerial in Sweden on FridayLet’s cross over to Brussels, where Nato’s secretary general Mark Rutte is briefing the media ahead of this week’s ministerial meeting in Helsingborg, Sweden on Friday.Rutte holds news conference ahead of NATO Foreign Ministers meeting - watch liveEU agrees to implement US trade deal struck last summer after night talksLisa O’CarrollSenior correspondentMeanwhile, the European Parliament will finally vote on the US trade deal on 16 or 17 of June after MEPs won significant amendments to the text of the tariff deal agreed with Donald Trump at his Scottish golf course last July.US president Donald Trump shakes hands with European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen, in Turnberry, Scotland, Britain.
