Hello to all our service members, from across the Alliance.

We live in a more dangerous world.

There is a fully fledged war in Europe.
A new war in the Middle East.
Tensions in the Western Balkans.
Brutal terrorism persists.
And climate change is driving conflicts.

There can be no security without strong defences.
And no strong defences without capable armed forces.

That is why this past year, we took significant steps to further bolster NATO’s deterrence and defence.

With more troops on high readiness and increased defence spending.

This is not to provoke war.
It is to prevent conflict and preserve peace.

This past year, I had the privilege to meet many of you.

I met with troops who are part of the NATO battlegroup in Estonia.
I saw you exercising in Lithuania.
And met with sailors patrolling the Mediterranean and protecting critical infrastructure in the North Sea.
And met the troops supporting those made homeless by the devastating earthquake in Türkiye.

And just last month, I met KFOR troops in northern Kosovo.
Helping maintain a safe and secure environment for all in Kosovo is key for the stability of the wider Western Balkans region.

I want to take this opportunity to thank each of you.
Wherever you are deployed.

Without you, there would be no NATO.
No security.
And no freedom.

We owe you a debt a gratitude.

So thank you for your service, your professionalism and commitment.
And I wish you and your families a peaceful holiday season and a happy New Year!
