Oliver Röpke @EESC_President@respublicae.eu

One month has already passed since I was elected President of the #EESC.

I remain committed to upholding #democracy, #FundamentalRights, and the #RuleofLaw as the guiding principles of my presidency.

Only in this way, we can achieve a stronger and more resilient Europe.

The @EU_EESC & the @EU_CoR represent the beating heart of Europe – its citizens.

These Committees empower #CivilSociety, local, and regional authorities to raise their voices & ensure they are heard in the EU 🇪🇺.

We must make sure that those voices are united, loud, and clear.

Delighted to have taken part in today's #CoRplenary with @CoR_President.

We share the common goal of empowering local & regional authorities, alongside an engaged #CivilSociety, in policy matters.

By joining forces, we can make our cooperation meaningful and our voices louder.

RT @oliverroepke: Moving words of a strong and courageous woman:

@YusraMardini at #ETUC50 congress in Berlin.

As a child fleeing the war in Syria, she is fighting for human rights, freedom and humanity.
Thank you, Yusra!

Today marks the 65th anniversary of the first #EESC plenary meeting.

A vibrant #CivilSociety is key for any healthy #democracy.

This is why I want the EESC to become a true civil society gateway - speaking up for Europeans and making sure their voices are heard at 🇪🇺 level.
