Protecting our oceans & safeguarding fisheries is not just good for our environment & our economy. It’s essential for the well-being of our society & our democracy. Great to discuss with Commissioner Costas Kadis how to empower our fellow citizens & involve them in EU policy.

Our Union is a beacon of freedom, democracy & human rights!🇪🇺 As Trump takes office, uncertainty clouds the future of those same values & rights in the U.S. We'll stand up for our values and work, in unity & solidarity, with people on both sides of the Atlantic, to defend them.

Η Ευρώπη παραμένει ένα από τα πιο εύπορα μέρη στον κόσμο. Αλλά οι διαδοχικές κρίσεις έχουν επηρεάσει αρνητικά την οικονομική κατάσταση όλων μας. Τι μπορεί να κάνει η ΕΕ για να μας προφυλάξει; Πολύ ενδιαφέρουσα συζήτηση στο Euronews, με συντονιστή την κατάπληκτη maria psara.

If there was any doubt, it is now abundantly clear. Trump and his cronies are hell-bent on destroying the EU. Not in defence of their twisted notion of “free speech”. But because of what our Union represents - democracy, human rights & the rule of law. They will not succeed.

Siding with autocrats. Threatening allies. Betraying Ukraine's fight for freedom & democracy. Trump's loyalty is not with America. His allegiances are clear. Russia First. The EU must support Ukraine, strengthen our collective defence & protect peace across Europe. 🇪🇺🇺🇦

To address the climate crisis, we need to involve citizens in the decisions that affect them.   We sat down with @RaquelGarciaHer MEP, EU Climate Action’s Elina Bardram and Brian Maguire, to discuss how we can achieve that. 👇 euractiv.com/section/eet/vi…

The European Parliament is the embodiment of EU democracy, a landmark in the process of European integration. The work of MEPs is hugely significant for our rights, our environment & our economy. Delighted to be on the The Parliament Magazine #MEPAwards2025 Jury, alongside distinguished colleagues.

The assault President Zelenskyy endured at the White House should be a cautionary tale for every European leader. Unless we move forward with comprehensive security & defence integration, Ukraine won’t be the last European state to be invaded by Putin and bullied by Trump.

"The road to equality is paved with solidarity. Defending our rights is a responsibility for everyone. Especially today, when we see a concerted attack on our fundamental freedoms, and democracy itself. We need a broad alliance to stand against those spreading hate & division."

Matina is an astute observer, not one to lend herself to hyperbole. Her reporting on Trump’s threats, and the degree to which they are taken seriously by Canada, should be a warning for policy-makers in Europe. Trump’s attitude towards US allies is revanchist and imperialist.

It turns out we don’t need to reform the Treaties to do away with unanimity. And we have Orban to thank for that. Who would have thought.

Let the music, the light & the setting do the talking! We spend all year discussing the EU, debating about policy. So for Europe Day, together with Mayor Philippe Close, we are doing something different. A celebration that’s inviting & inclusive, open to the uninitiated. 👇🏻
