I observed elections with head of the EP delegation @leopoldolopezg in Guatemala City and in the area of Antigua today, where voting is a real celebration for the citizens of Guatemala! https://t.co/xV32nUgNaY

I hope @ZelenskyyUa is listening!
@VeniceComm: people belonging to national #minorities in UA, incl. Hungarians in Transcarpathia, have the right to use their language freely.
We'll fight until the HU communities in Transcarpathia regain the right to learn in their mother tongue! https://n.respublicae.eu/VeniceComm/status/1668305092078972950

Important debate today at #EPplenary on how to make Europe a place to invest. Due to the skyrocketing #energyprices, raw material dependency & growing administrative burden, less investments have come to Europe in the last years. https://t.co/5lBAEj8Qfi

Re Meanwhile, US attract investors with paradisiac conditions. In my speech I emphasized:
1. we should stop discipline China as they are unavoidable to green transition,
2. COM should not waste more time to sign the negotiated Mercosur & Mexican FTAs,

Re 3. #SME Relief package should be published finally, while applying the "Think small first" and "One in one out" principles in practice.
COM should let businesses breathe so that it does not kill completely European competitiveness.

For totalitarian regimes, victims are just statistics. Today at the European Parliament we commemorated the victims of #Sovietdeportations, by reading their names out one by one. We do not forget them, we do not forget the crimes of oppressive regimes. Never again #communism! https://t.co/kJKdbBKa2w

I hope that the concrete legislative proposals that will follow today’s @EU_Commission #EconomicSecurityStrategy will be based on impact assessments.

The EU should be cautious in #EconomicSecurityStrategy. More security should not come at the price of rottening supply chains, ie. by depriving the EU from #CriticalRawMaterials. Do not risk our #competitiveness further.

In the #MFF review published today, @EU_Commission wants more EU money for #Ukraine, #migration& #hightech. If I translate it: no funds for Central and Eastern Europe. Not a very encouraging starting point for a difficult debate.

#MFF review: while MSs are requested to give more financial contribution, #HU & #PL haven’t received their money from the regular #EUbudget, meanwhile they contribute to it accordingly. I wonder how the @EU_Commission plans to address this contradiction.

Only 1 out of the world's 10 largest companies is European, and EU-based companies are preparing to relocate overseas to take advantage of #IRA.
COM should urgently stop its reactive-only policy. It should recognise Europe's interests & take conscious action to be competitive!

4. Our trade policy has become ideological.
In 2010 the EU accounted for 22% of world GDP, meanwhile today it's only 17%. China has doubled its share, overtaking us & US has increased its lead, as well.

Reality instead:
1.Bxl is extremely slow in responding to changes,
2.From looser state aid rules only the big players have benefited so far, threatening to distort the internal market,
3.Only 30% of the #recoverymoney has been spent, & there are pol games being played a/s HU&PL,

Therefore, it is in our utmost interest to urgently move the #EU-#Mercosur agreement forward and pave the way for its signature and ratification. Right now.

It’s clear that these ties are being increasingly exposed to major global challenges, thus European companies are losing ground to other competitors in the Brazilian market and vice-versa.

@vonderleyen should closely listen to @BusinessEurope’s worries ahead of her visit to Latin-Amerika: although trade & investment relations between the EU & #Brazil are solid, it’s far below their full potential.

Riposa in pace, #SilvioBerlusconi! È stato un grande statista e mi ritengo fortunata di averlo conosciuto, prima come ambasciatrice a Roma e poi come collega al Parlamento europeo.
