Minister Crosetto Meets His Dutch Counterpart Dilan Yeşilgöz-Zegerius
"Cordial meeting with my colleague Dilan Yeşilgöz-Zegerius, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence of the Netherlands. An opportunity to discuss current and future challenges, with a particular focus on the role of innovation. Countering hybrid and cyber threats, as well as disinformation, requires increasingly close cooperation to strengthen the resilience of our societies, protect critical infrastructure, and enhance prevention and response capabilities.
A productive discussion on strengthening European defence in its continental dimension: a shared security framework that holds all European countries accountable and involves them, while contributing to consolidating NATO's European pillar. Strong interest in developing new opportunities for bilateral cooperation in the field of Defence and between our respective defence industries. A shared commitment to supporting Ukraine in order to achieve a just and lasting peace," said the Minister of Defence, Guido Crosetto.
