With Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the world as we know it changed dramatically.

Our response was strong. We have shown solidarity.

The values Ukrainians are fighting for are what Europe stands for. And must be protected.

🇺🇦 needs hope.
🇪🇺 can offer that.

Europe is a choice.

And our best chance is if we are together.

Because of Europe, the world ahead will be better than the one we leave behind.

People are worried about paying their bills. Anxious about stretching their salaries to the end of the month.

Europe must respond as one. This is the time for Europe to deliver.

@europarl_en will be at the forefront of action.

Together.

Europe will survive if we fight for it. If we stop taking it for granted. If we understand and explain its benefits. If we listen.

That is why I look forward with hope. With optimism. With purpose.

Because young Europeans are engaged. They speak out.

Europe is hope. Hope in the future. In the next generation.

A bright spark. A beacon of light.

Europe has the power to transform. To change the world.

That is why the world ahead will be better than the one we leave behind.

When I look at young people across Europe I know that the future is bright.

The enthusiasm, hope & optimism I saw today fills me with confidence. Youths asking difficult & pertinent questions, eager to turn challenges into opportunities.

Thank you for believing in our project.

Excellent meeting Speaker @ASantosSilvaPAR. As we address inflation, energy & cost-of-living challenges, links between national Parliaments & @Europarl_PT must be enhanced.

Grateful for @AssembleiaRepub's leadership in ensuring decision-making is brought closer to people. 🇪🇺 🇵🇹

Important to see EU funds being used to transform people's lives.

@champalimaudf & other projects investing in research and innovation must continue to find our support.

We can beat cancer only if we invest.

This is what Europe does. And what we will continue to do.

Our regions, towns & cities is where Europe's heart beats loudest.

Honoured to receive the key to Lisbon from my friend Mayor @Moedas.

Lisbon is one of Europe's greatest cities & I am grateful for such a warm welcome by people here for their commitment to our European project.

Great to be in Lisbon with President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa.

@Europarl_PT will continue doing what we can to assist Portugal & other Member States combatting forest fires.

Ahead of #SOTEU, we also discussed decisions on energy, cost-of-living, inflation & food security.

There is nothing that motivates me more than to speak with the next generation of Europeans.

This morning, my message to young people at the @Campus_Polska was to lead.

By being active, by making your voice heard.

Together we can forge a better future. For Europe & the world.

My lasting memory of Mikhail Gorbachev is watching him meet George HW Bush in stormy Malta to signal the end of the Cold War.

It inspired hope of a better, freer world. It meant walls torn down & led to Europe's reunification.

His legacy will be remembered.
May he rest in peace

Today we remember crimes against humanity in the past, but we also remember the importance of speaking up, for democracy and our values.

To make sure that the horrors of totalitarianism in Europe are not repeated again.

54 years ago, Soviet troops & tanks rolled into Czechoslovakia, brutally crushing the democratic movement, pushing back against personal liberties & ensuring another lost generation.

History teaches us. We cannot allow the same to happen to the people of Ukraine. We will not.

20 weeks ago.

In Kyiv, I saw courage, hope & determination in the eyes of Ukrainians. Belief in freedom, in democracy, in the rule of law.

@europarl_en will not waiver in our support. We will not leave you alone.

Europe will continue to #StandWithUkraine.

🇪🇺🇺🇦
