The world can never forget the images of the atrocities and horrors found in a liberated Bucha a year ago.
Mass graves, summary executions, homes and lives destroyed.
Those responsible for these crimes against humanity will be brought to justice.

Very good meeting with Prime Minister @antoniocostapm in the margins of #EUCO.
Agreed on the need for further investments to strengthen our competitiveness. To help our European businesses and SMEs face current challenges.
Our support to Ukraine remains steadfast.

Our EU economies are competitive & must remain so.
That is why now is the time to go green. It benefits people, businesses & families.
But we must leave nobody behind.
We can do this through investments - public & private - so that our SMEs and start-ups stay in Europe.

Our ultimate goal remains peace.
But for there to be peace, there must be a free Ukraine.
Our next steps:
- more political, economic, humanitarian and military solidarity
- close remaining loopholes on sanctions
- establish a Special Tribunal for the crime of aggression

We are strongest when we act together.
More than ever, now is the time to continue acting in unison.
My message today at #EUCO is for Europe to deliver where it matters:
• strengthen support to Ukraine
• boost economic competitiveness
This is how Europe can continue to lead.
