A busy and positive day at the 7th Paris Peace Forum, taking stock of ongoing global challenges, reform of governance structures and partnerships initiatives. Thanks for inspiring discussions and many warm encounters.

On pysäyttävää lukea tutkimuksesta, jonka mukaan viidennes miehistä pitää naisiin kohdistuvaa väkivaltaa ansaittuna. Etenkin nuorten asenteet huolestuttavat. Asenteiden muutos on välttämätön, mutta ei synny itsestään. EU tekee tätä työtä globaalisti Spotlight Initiative kautta.

It was great to meet António Costa today! We had a fruitful discussion on the EU’s evolving international partnerships - especially engagement with Africa, and implementing our #GlobalGateway strategy as #TeamEurope. Best of luck for your presidency of the European Council.

I attended yesterday the ministerial meeting of the Resettlement Diplomacy Network (RDN) convened by US State Secretary Anthony Blinken. The EU is committed to safe and legal pathways to protection and it is also part of the Pact on Migration and Asylum. state.gov/joint-statemen…

Tonight, we #OrangeTheWorld Our Commission building shines bright as a symbol of solidarity with the women victim of violence. We hear you. We see you. We believe you. We stand with you.

I had a chance to discuss the EU’s development policy, geopolitics and #GlobalGateway FRANCE 24 English’s Talking Europe. Thank you Armen Georgian for the interview. france24.com/en/tv-shows/ta…

Today I met five democracy support organisations to discuss “Call to Defend Democracy: 10 Priorities for the EU”, published by them. Thank you for the fruitful exchange of views. Democracy is one of the EU´s founding values also underpinning the EU´s Global Gateway strategy.

It was an honour to announce the winners of the 2024 Lorenzo Natali Prize. In a world where truth and lies are increasingly blurred, investing in quality journalism is essential. The EU is committed to defending media freedom, knowing that democracy and rule of law depend on it.

Thank you Jutta Urpilainen & team for five super intense, yet fantastic years! Commissioner, you have been the trusted European face in Africa and beyond! Your leadership has been instrumental in forging strong partnerships! So many unforgettable memories to last a lifetime!

You have challenged us to think bigger and to dream bolder. Your human touch with our partners has not only expanded our reach, but has also created opportunities for growth and sustainable development. Thank you and best of luck for the next chapter of your life!

Today, I had the honour of receiving the Grand Cross of the Order of the Lion of Finland, awarded to me by the President of Finland. I am truly grateful for this recognition, which is granted for work done in service of the nation.

Päivän päätteeksi sain olla tänään keskustelemassa ”kolmen savolaisen kollegani” kanssa Euroopan tilasta ja tulevaisuudesta. Toivoa - sitä kaikki tarvitsemme! Kiitos ⁦Erkki Liikanen⁩ ⁦Jyrki Katainen⁩ ja ⁦Olli Rehn⁩ ajatustenvaihdosta!

It has been a long journey, but finally the negotiation result has been achieved. Congratulations on turning a new page in EU-Mercosur relations!

Tänään on juhlittu rakkaan Suomen itsenäisyyspäivää. Minulle Suomi edustaa vapautta, demokratiaa ja jakamatonta ihmisoikeutta. Luontomme on lahja. Kunnioitetaan toisiamme ja pidetään kaikista huolta.

Hyvää alkanutta vuotta! Kirjoitin EU:n ja Grönlannin yhteistyöstä, josta vastasin komissaarina viisi vuotta ja jossa vierailin viime syksynä. Grönlannin tulee saada itse päättää tulevaisuudestaan. hs.fi/mielipide/art-…
