The #SocialClimateFund trilogue is about to start in Brussels.
Key issues remain, but I am positive we will reach a good deal with Member States that will deliver beneficial investments to address the energy needs of those who need it most.

3 months ago today, a 22-year old young woman died in police custody in Iran.
#MahsaAmini's brutal death marked a turning point.
The women, men & all those protesting in the streets of Iran have inspired the world.
We have stood by you & will stay with you.

The Prime Minister is the last person whom @RobertaMetsola need consult on fighting corruption.
On the contrary, our PM would do well to take a leaf out of her book if he is serious about ending impunity in #Malta.

The @EU_Commission noted significant and direct influence by the Maltese government in the public broadcaster.
This is unacceptable.
I welcome the EC's legislative proposals to strengthen the press and protect journalists.

Government interference in public broadcasting is a threat to democracy.
In #Strasbourg I highlighted the need to strengthen rules to enhance independent governance and editorial independence of public service media.

.@IFJGlobal document 67 journalists killed around the world this year, including 13 in Europe.
It is unacceptable that journalists should pay the ultimate price simply for doing their job. Since last year, the numbers have only gotten worse.
Democracy needs #journalists.

I condemn the riots that broke out in #Brussels after the Belgium-Morocco match.
Citizens were exposed to gratuitous violence and destruction that is wholly unwarranted.
I'm especially shocked that three #journalists were physically assaulted, to whom I express my solidarity.

The @europarl_en is under a sophisticated cyberattack. A pro-Kremlin group has claimed responsibility.
Our IT experts are pushing back against it & protecting our systems.
This, after we proclaimed Russia as a State-sponsor of terrorism.

Justice delayed is justice denied.
It is obvious that @MaltaGov has been dragging its feet in bringing to justice the bank of choice of the corrupt.
Failuring to prosecute Pilatus Bank is not just another rule of law failure, but akin to protecting criminals. @azzopardijason

Immediate action must be taken after the vile threats to Victor Vella and his family.
On the anniversary of Daphne's assassination, we have a clear if despicable sign that the protection of journalists is still an ongoing duty.
We must make #Malta safe for journalists.

Another step towards justice.
Justice should never have been delayed in the first place by a Magistrate who refused to recuse herself three times and was forcibly removed by the Constitutional Court.
