Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg participated in the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland on Tuesday (16 January 2024), underlining the importance of continued support to Ukraine.
While acknowledging that the battlefield situation is “extremely difficult”, with the Russians “now pushing on many frontlines”, Mr Stoltenberg underlined that “there is also cause for optimism”. He pointed to Ukraine’s impressive achievements in liberating territory; opening a corridor for grain export in the Black Sea; and overall its survival as a sovereign, independent nation. Conversely, he said that “Russia has lost what they wanted to achieve with the war, and that was to control Ukraine”; Ukrainians are now firmly oriented to the West, aspiring for membership in NATO and the European Union. The Secretary General also stressed that “support for Ukraine is not charity; it’s an investment in our own security”. Pointing to the increasingly global nature of security, Mr Stoltenberg noted that close NATO partners Japan and South Korea are also concerned about Russia’s war against Ukraine, as a victory for President Putin would increase the likelihood of Beijing using force elsewhere.
The Secretary General spoke at a panel on “Securing an Insecure World” alongside Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, Nigerian Foreign Minister Yusuf Tuggar, Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, and US Senator Chris Coons. The discussion was moderated by the President of the World Economic Forum, Børge Brende.
Earlier in the day, the Secretary General participated in a dialogue between political leaders, CEOs and other officials to discuss the role of the global private and public sectors in Ukraine’s long-term reconstruction, alongside President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
While in Davos, the Secretary General will also address a closed-door session of the International Business Council. He is also holding meetings with a number of world leaders, including President Zelenskyy, Polish President Andrzei Duda, Swiss President Viola Amherd, and Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani.

Nigerian foreign minister is wonderful! Practice what you preach!

The German minister spoke very eloquently and earnestly. She demonstrated good analytical skills and presented very plausable and sensible actions that should logically be acceptable to both sides, such as each side releasing their hostages. The first stumbling block can be removed very easily.

This was a remarkable discussion. Diverse voices from different regions with different incentives agreeing and disagreeing without violence. Amazing

The wording "the danger of escalation" doesn't make any sense to me. One group is willingly trying to create escalation and the western world is just trying to live in peace.

Usually when politicians start talking about "danger of escalation" you can bet it has already happened.

@@nazortube Yeah, Armenia had a security guarantee from Russia and that evaporated the moment Karabakh was attacked by Azerbaijan last year. Not to mention Russian propagandists are threatening to attack the Central Asian nations who have the best relationship with Russia (like Uzbekistan). The U.S. is far from ideal, but U.S. propagandists don´t threaten to attack South Korea, Australia or Belgium.

42:00 Stoltenberg has a very good point. So many journalists, experts and politicians predict what will happen in Ukraine, forgetting that they - and we all - aren´t observers but active participants. We didn´t choose that role, but the situation is throwing it on us. We can change the outcome. It´s not important what will happen, it´s important what we do. ---- Also impressed by Baerbock´s humanism, Valtonen´s ability to address the problem and the audience, and Tuggar´s emphasis on neutral ground and diplomacy.

In order to end the humanitarian crisis in Gaza Egypt should open their border to Palestinian women, children, sick and elderly with a guarantee that they will be allowed to return home once Hamas have been destroyed.

Egypt has no obligation to do that and neither are they the cause of the war.
