It was great to be in Madrid. At @FundacionAreces I spoke about the defining fight of our time — democracy versus dictatorship — and the four steps democracies must take, together, to prevail. Thank you for a wonderful exchange.

Ce fut un grand plaisir d'être à Madrid. À @FundacionAreces, j'ai parlé du combat décisif de notre temps — la démocratie contre la dictature — et des quatre mesures que les démocraties doivent prendre, ensemble, pour l'emporter. Merci pour cet échange formidable.

It was great to be in Kyiv, marking 35 years of Ukrainian independence — more meaningful than ever after four years of Russia’s illegal full-scale invasion. The resilience of the Ukrainian people is extraordinary. Ukraine will win this war. Слава Україні!

“I’m not surprised, I am relieved. I think that we were on the brink of a deal that would have been a bad deal for Canada and also, frankly, a bad deal for the United States. And I'm glad that that didn't happen,” Former Deputy Prime Minister of Canada @cafreeland tells @EenaRuffini and @davidgura on Bloomberg This Weekend.
