The most powerful European response to the Russian aggression in #Ukraine will be offering support for democratic states in Eastern Europe & the South Caucasus, with strong regional/local authorities, economically & culturally vibrant cities and societies committed to EU values.

We need to support initiatives and have tangible results on the ground. For this to happen we must support local and regional authorities as well as NGO's in the accession process. @Dulkiewicz_A @EU_CoR

It would be a mistake to dissolve the #EaP. Furthermore, it would not be beneficial for the #EU. Regarding the procedures we must have a tailor-made approach for each candidate country. Local and regional authorities must be heavily involved. @ire #FranzSchausberger

Democratic societies are built on #MediaFreedom and pluralism. The @EU_CoR is united to protect these principles and to bring together diverging perspectives on how to secure them in an appropriate way. @markspeich @NRWinEU

@EU_CoR @markspeich @NRWinEU @NRW_in_Berlin @sabineverheyen @EPCulture The common goal of the European #MediaFreedom Act must be consistently anchored in the internal market, while the need to ensure diversity at the regional and local level has to be taken into account.@markspeich @NRWinEU @EU_CoR

The #EaP needs to change and respond proactively to the new realities by supporting all partner countries in their aspirations. We want to promote stronger involvement of regional and local authorities when designing cooperation priorities with territorial impact. #AlinNica
