- Joint press conference by the NATO Secretary General, Jens Stoltenberg and the US Secretary of State, Antony J. Blinken, 3 April 2024.
🗣 | NATO Secretary General:
Secretary Blinken, dear Tony.
welcome back to NATO. It's always great to see you here. And thank you for leadership. Thank you for your strong commitment to our Alliance.
Today, we have already started our Foreign Ministers meeting. And we have addressed how to strengthen our support to Ukraine, to create an even more robust framework for our support.
And I thank you for your strong commitment, your personal commitment, commitment of President Biden, to ensure that the United States continues to be a lead nation in supporting Ukraine.
Then, burden sharing is always top on our agenda. When NATO made the pledge to invest the 2% of GDP on defence, back in 2014, only three Allies met that target. Today, two thirds of NATO Allies are spending 2% of GDP on defence, that is significant progress. But of course, we want more Allies, we want all Allies to be at 2%, and 2% is minimum.
So this is a message that I and we all convey very strongly as we prepare for the upcoming Washington Summit.
Then tomorrow, we will also meet with our Asia Pacific partners. And I think the war in Ukraine demonstrates how intertwined the security of Europe is with the security of Asia and the Pacific. North Korea, China, Iran are supporting Russia's war aggression in different ways. So this demonstrates that security is not regional, security is truly global. And therefore, it is important to work together with our Asia Pacific partners.
And again, thank you for the strong US leadership on this issue.
Then lastly, tomorrow, we will celebrate NATO's 75th anniversary. We will actually meet to tonight at the Truman Hall. But also then tomorrow, we will mark it here at the NATO headquarters. And, then we will also mark the 75th anniversary at the NATO Summit in Washington in July.
Thank you for hosting the summit. And it will be a great summit to celebrate the Alliance, but also to ensure that we continue to adapt and to ensure that NATO continues to be the most successful Alliance in history. So, Tony, welcome, it is always great to have you here.

Stay United Stay Strong NATO!!!
Keep moving forward 👍
Trump-proof NATO! and MAGA-proof NATO! Keep Democracy Strong!
BRAVO US and NATO
Jens Stoltenberg has been a great SG of NATO. I hope he'd stick around in the international politics arena and be given another challenging post once he stepped down from NATO later this year. I am thinking something like the UN Secretary-Gereral's post in which the current incumbent is not up to snuff.
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦❤❤❤💪
What an dedicated, amazing leader the NATO secretary is.❤
A very good summary of the purpose of NATO which needs to be repeated, because many do not appreciate it.
Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

NATO with Ukraine and also India would be great, but I dont think India wants to join Nato?
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
If you're trying to say, support Ukraine by letting it join NATO, I agree!
They can't join during an ongoing conflict, but NATO will do everything they can to continue to support you. Slava ❤

More defence strong NATO so amazing
Long live nato democracy and freedom
Stay strong but get stronger NATO 💪💪💪.
All NATO countries increase defence spending to 3% as a bare minimum if you can & ensure you're strong enough that no country dare come for any one of you.
There is only war because of weakness. By getting stronger you'll eliminate any chance of that happening.
Happy 75th Anniversary NATO.
Welcome both Finland & Sweden to our alliance ♥️♥️
Uplift democratic world
NATO AND USA 👍👍👍
I'm proud to NATO. Jens Stotenberg is a real leader , is a honest person, charismatic image, he must have a good job in NATO, USA or another allies in this beautiful and important military organization.
Mr Blinken is an excellent Secretary of State, I'm respect both and include the other Prime Ministers. Thanks NATO.🌏🌎🌍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇫🇷🇺🇳🇪🇺

Stoltenberg is the hero of NATO well done
Taiwan joins the help for Ukraine.
Notice that the colour in the background is blue! Go blue! 💙
As long as it takes as much needed!,,
My opinion - in concreteness, the next Secretary General will have to be best for the NEW CONTEXT while preserving what has been achieved so far. In other words, (1) the greatest enemy is the 'business-as-usual' mentality, and the (2) the right person for the job is Klaus W. Iohannis. Now, some Westerners may (and do) have a hard time understanding and adjusting when we actually have to "run in order to keep in the same (safe) place". I hope they will, in due time.
Secretary General in Nato, Jens Stoltenberg, is an excellent leader for the Allians. His leadership during this difficult times is both clear and firm.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😘👋🙌

Great to see NATO so united. All thanks to Putins ridiculous aggressive attitude. So much for his three day special military operation. Not so special now.
