Zelensky participated in our deliberations Moreover I am glad to emphasize the involvement of representatives from the Nordic countries in our discussion This is indeed an important step towards building an integrated Northeastern NATO security space The upcoming NATO Summit in The Hague will take place in only three weeks This is an excellent moment to discuss our expectations ahead of this very important gathering Ladies and gentlemen We all know too well that we are facing critical threats and challenges from Russia In response we have to make NATO stronger but also fairer Having in mind Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine and its aggressive attitudes towards the West We must do everything to develop appropriate instruments that will deter the Kremlin's new imperial ambitions especially here on the eastern flank That is why our talks focus primarily on the urgent need to increase defense spending and on developing the production capabilities of national defense industries I would like to recall even before last year's NATO Summit in Washington I proposed to raise the defense spending by NATO members to the minimum level of 3% of their GDP Three months ago I submitted to Secretary General Mark Rutte a request to raise this issue in the Hague And today I am glad to see that we all agree on that and that our ambitions are even higher up to 5% of GDP on defense We hope that the allies will follow into our footsteps Another key element of our discussions was strengthening the transatlantic relations and the strategic alliance with the USA Among our partners in the region there is a widespread understanding that Europe must take greater responsibility for its own security But it is critically important to do it not by following mirages of European autonomy but in close cooperation with the United States We also had an opportunity to exchange information with President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky During our conversation we addressed very important issues regarding further support for Ukraine in its fight against Russia Continuing our assistance to Ukraine in various domains military, political and humanitarian is critical to security in Europe and is Ukraine's integration with Europe and Euro-Atlantic structures including NATO Ladies and gentlemen For me today's meeting had a special significance and it was my last opportunity to speak at this forum as President of the Republic of Poland I have to emphasize that co-creating and later co-developing this format has been one of the most important and valuable aspects of my presidency Over the past 10 years the B-9 has been an effective tool strengthening the voice of the eastern flank countries within NATO and helping us shape the alliance's deterrence and defense policy I am convinced that even after my term as President of Poland B-9 will remain the best platform for coordinating security positions of our countries allowing us to better manage the threats and challenges we face Thank you Thank you Mr. President Mr. President Zelensky please deliver your statement Thank you so much Mr. President It's important to be here in Vilnius today Dear friends, partners We all want the same thing to stop the Russian war to bring real peace and to make security last That's what we are all working for First, I informed our partners about the situation at the front We also talked about our operation inside Russia which has seriously weakened their military Operation Spider Web showed that modern war really looks like and why it's so important to stay ahead with technology All our joint investments in drone production all our shared battlefield experience everything we are doing together with our partners it's making Europe stronger Today, we agreed with our partners on several joint decisions that will strengthen our defense Even more, I thank everyone for your willingness to help There will be new packages, there will be new investments in Ukraine's weapon production especially drones Ukraine can produce much more and we see partner investments as a way to give those partners priority access to restock their arsenals after this war Second, I thank you all for our shared view of what diplomacy needs in order to succeed Today, we see the situation clearly if Russia turns the Istanbul meeting into an empty talk There must be a new level of pressure, new sanctions and not just from Europe We need to work on joint sanctions at the G7 level including with the United States and with everyone in the world who wants peace It's very, very important that each of our partners supports this exact approach Sanctions against Russia are necessary It's important to seriously limit Russia's oil trade and its use of tankers Sanctions, including secondary ones, tariffs and price caps can work and push Russia towards peace Without pressure, Putin will just keep playing games with everyone who wants this war to end Talks in Istanbul just ended and now I'm waiting for the Minister of Mirrorful report They exchanged documents through the Turkish side and we are preparing a new release of prisoners of the war Third, the upcoming NATO summit can strengthen Europe's security or if it sends the wrong signal it will only encourage Putin The key to lasting peace is clear The aggressor must not receive any reward for war Putin must get nothing that would justify his aggression Any reward would only show him that war pays off Geopolitical gains are just as important to Russia as money or territory If Putin is allowed to decide who joins NATO where NATO infrastructure can or can't be then Russia's appetite for war will only grow Our shared goal is the opposite to completely end Russia's hunger for aggression Ukraine is doing its part and I am grateful to all partners who are doing theirs We must act as one united Euro-Atlantic community The NATO summit in June is the right place and the right time to send a clear message Russia will not get anything from this war Strong decisions are needed Decisions for Europe not for Putin We all need to work together to make this really happen and it's doable Thank you everyone who helped us Thank you so much Thank you Mr. Zelensky President of Romania The floor is yours now For me it's the first opportunity to participate as a president and I've been I've been very honored to be here and I have to thank also to our very nice organization So Bucharest 9 started 10 years ago it was just after Russian attack Crimea and at that moment it was a potential threat of Russia against European nations and it was a proposal in order that the countries on the eastern border or eastern flank of NATO have a common voice Now that potential threat became real We haven't war in Ukraine for more than 3 years and all our countries faced hybrid a set of hybrid actions So it's reality and for us members of Bucharest 9 and also for our Nordic allies we have the same concerns I'm So as you know most part of discussion were in order to prepare the HUG summit which will be in 3 weeks from now and I'm very pleased that most of our participants agreed on very important things like we need a stronger NATO we need a stronger transatlantic connection we have to not only to increase our expenses in defense but also being able to produce military equipment in order to protect ourselves and also that as I said the threat is not only classical military but it's we have very important hybrid actions against our countries I'm also very pleased that all the participants agreed that we have to continue to support Ukraine um as as a Romanian interest I emphasize that we have a long-term concern on the security in the whole Bled Sea area including the Republic of Moldova and I thank to our partner that they continue to support the Republic of Moldova and this European integration process and finally I propose I'm very pleased that everybody agreed that the next summit to be organized in Bucharest next year. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President. Madam Prime Minister, it's time for your Thank you. Dear dear dear Thank you for hosting us today and thank you for inviting the Nordic countries to join you here today in Linius. Today's meeting has been about one thing and one thing only the security of our countries and the security of our continent deterrence and defense. The threat from Russia against all of us is real and it is serious. Russia is continuing the war in Ukraine. Putin is talking about peace during the day and bumping at night. We see a more aggressive Russia approach in the Baltic Sea region and it is assessed by the Danish Defense Intelligence Service that Russia sees itself in conflict with the West and is preparing for war against NATO. It is therefore crucial that we take both unnecessary decisions at the NATO Summit in the Hague in only three weeks from now. In my mind and what we have discussed today there is only one way forward. We need to invest massively in our collective security all of us and we need to do it fast. NATO is by far the strongest military alliance in history and so our starting point must be to focus on what is needed to continue to be so to secure deterrence and our ability to defend ourselves. But I have to say that Russia is not deterred merely by us agreeing on a new defense spending target. We need to deliver actual capabilities and we need to do it fast. We must make sure that NATO always has the full range of capability necessary to deter and to defend against any threat against our countries. And at the same time we need to continue our strong and steadfast support for Ukraine's brave fight for freedom. Let me be very frank. We have to donate what is needed on the battlefield. We have to provide more financing for arms production directly going into Ukraine. We already have a mechanism that works. And I think we have to implement stronger sanctions against Russia. It goes for the shadow fleet. Recently we listed almost 200 additional vessels from the Russian shadow fleet and more have to come against the shadow fleet against Russian banks and I think we have to end any remaining dependency on Russian energy including oil, gas and nuclear energy. And to add one more thing, lower the oil cap. I think all that on the table would put the necessary pressure on Russia to get to the table and actually negotiate on peace. And why is that? Because Ukraine deserves peace. But the peace must be comprehensive, it must be just and it must be lasting. And it has to respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine. I'm sorry to say I think until now we haven't seen any signs that Russia is willing to actually commit to any of that. So our key task at the moment has to be to put Ukraine in the strongest possible situation and position on the battlefield and on or at the negotiation table. Europe, of course, needs a strong and independent Ukraine. I believe that once again the coming month will be paramount and we haven't got much time and therefore we need commitment to take the right decisions on behalf of all Europeans now. Thank you. Thank you so much. Mr. Secretary General. Thank you, President Noceda, dear Kitanas. Thank you for hosting the B9 Nordic Summit here in Vilnius. It is a pleasure, always a pleasure to be back here in Lithuania. Lithuania is a staunch ally and continues to lead by example. You invest more than 4% of GDP in defense this year and I welcome your plans to spend between 5% and 6% starting from next year. I think this sends an incredibly powerful message of commitment to our collective defense and it also sets an example for our other allies. On this stage and in our meetings today, it is clear that the commitment to collective defense is strong. We have had a productive day of meetings as we continue to prepare for the summit in The Hague. We are facing the most dangerous security environment in decades. Russia's war of aggression continues. Terrorist threats persist. We are not at war but we are not at peace either. So we must continue to strengthen our deterrence and defense. And that means pivoting towards a full warfighting readiness providing significantly more forces that are well trained, well equipped and support this logistic sustainment and ammunition. We continue to count on the B9 and our Nordic allies to play a key role in these important efforts. At the The Hague summit, I expect allies to demonstrate their enduring commitment to our collective defense by deciding to boost defense industrial production and increase defense investment. And this is purely simply essential to our security.And so is delivering on the new ambitious capability targets that allies are expected to agree later this week when the defense ministers will meet here in Brussels.Not here in Brussels, but in Brussels. Today, we also discussed Ukraine, a key priority for the summit in The Hague. Here for Vladimir, we continue to support Ukraine.We know that a strong, sovereign Ukraine is essential for Euro-Atlantic security.So we have about three weeks left until the NATO summit in The Hague.And I look forward to working with all allies to ensure we deliver for our one billion people. Dear Gitanas, thank you again for your hospitality, your leadership, and your unwavering commitment to our allies. Thank you, Mr. Secretary General. Dear journalists, we only have time for one question, which can be addressed to all the leaders, or some of them.Please indicate that. Martina, go ahead, please. Hello, Martina Pichelita, News Agency Alta.I have a question to all of you.So with the announcement that America will review its true presence in Europe, there has been some concern about a reduction in United States capabilities on NATO's eastern flank.So in this context, and given the fact that the current administration of the United States has reduced America's focus on Europe, what can be expected at the upcoming summit in Cape? Thank you. I think we can do anything more than that. I will start. You know, I don't want to base my assumptions on the rumors.I would trust official information about the possible reduction of United States' presence in Europe. So far, we have 1,000 U.S. soldiers standing shoulder to shoulder with the soldiers of Germany, Norway and other EFP countries. And we are ready to provide all necessary conditions even to increase this number if there would be political will from the new American administration. So far, we are working on the broad range of activities. And I would like to remind you last week, 100 meters from here in the cathedral square, the chancellor Friedrich Merz inaugurated the German brigade. Full-scale brigade will be deployed in Lithuania until 2027. And we are progressing on the all necessary infrastructure for German soldiers here. And those are my assumptions right now. So we are highly interested that United States' focus on Europe remains because this is very important element of our collective security.And I hope that the Hague Summit will bring very positive news to this field. Thank you. Mr. President Duda, what would be your answer to this question? I can only answer that I had a few opportunities to talk with President Trump during last 6-7 months. I talked also with his secretaries, especially with Secretary Haxat. And I have no information about any ideas of who is throwing American military forces, U.S. Army forces from our part of Europe from eastern flank. So this is my answer. President Zelensky, can you please give your views? He refers to me now, but then maybe we should... Let me be very straightforward here. Since January, I get two questions from European allies. Question one is Is the U.S. still committed to NATO? The answer is yes. Committed to NATO, committed to Article 5. And this has been many times repeated by President Trump in many meetings.So my only suggestion to many European colleagues is put on your television so that you can hear him say this. Don't ask me. He is very clear about this.But there is an expectation. Expectation is that we are going to spend more because we need to spend more for our defense. But also it is because it is fair to equalize our spending with the spending the U.S. is doing currently. Second question, they might withdraw their troops all of a sudden. And exactly as President Duda is saying, there is absolutely no indication of this. What we know is that the U.S. next to Europe of course also has to take care of the Middle East, has to take care of the Indo-Pacific. And it is only logical that over time, as we are building up, that the U.S. will pivot somewhat more towards Asia. But I am absolutely convinced that also in the long term, there will be a very strong conventional U.S. presence in Europe. Next to the nuclear presence, the nuclear umbrella, our ultimate guarantor of our freedom, there will be a very strong conventional presence of the U.S. in Europe. There is no doubt about it. Basically referring back to what the two other speakers have been saying. Thank you. President Zelensky. I agree with Mark. Good answer, Mark. President Rubino, please. Yes. First of all, the United States presence in the eastern flank of NATO is extremely important for all of us. So as I said, we have to strengthen the transatlantic connection. And on this regard, it is very, very important our commitment on 3.5 plus 1.5. And I hope that we will take that decision. Thank you. So I would like to thank all the leaders. I would like to thank all the journalists. Our press conference is over. Thank you.
