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

За свою незалежність.
🇪🇺 завжди стоятиме пліч-о-пліч з Україною. Наша підтримка триватиме.

The significance of this year's 🇺🇦 Independence Day is more compelling than ever before.
Strong & brave Ukrainians fighting for their lives, families, country, values, choices & freedom.
For their independence.

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.

The end of enhanced economic surveillance in #Greece is an important achievement.
The determination of Greek people to overcome the challenges provides for a future of sustainable economic growth for 🇬🇷 to meet its full potential.
@europarl_en will continue to support you 🇪🇺🇬🇷

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.
🇪🇺🇺🇦

Youth must be given a stronger voice in shaping a better and more sustainable future for all.
We must continue to put our trust in young people and enable them to become world-change makers.
The future lies with the youth of today.

The people of #Belarus deserve democracy & freedom.
2 years after elections, the people of Belarus keep fighting for their democratic choice.
@europarl_en will continue to #StandWithBelarus.
Violence & repression must stop. All those detained released.

14 years ago, Russia started a brutal pattern by invading independent Georgia to halt its pro-European choice.
We will never accept the ‘right of might’.
#Georgia 🇬🇪 belongs to the European family of values.
@europarl_en continues to stand firmly with the people of Georgia.

On 4 August 1944 a 14-year old girl & her family were arrested by Nazis.
#AnneFrank's writings exposed us to what millions of innocent girls, boys, women & men endured.
Our duty is to remember. To keep Anne Frank’s memory - & all victims of the #Holocaust - alive.

Awareness, enforcement, safety.
@europarl_en joins @UN on the World Day Against Trafficking of Persons.
People - women, men, children - should never be exploited.
Together, we will continue working to #EndHumanTrafficking 💙

Today we reaffirm our commitment to 🇺🇦 as a European nation. As a 🇪🇺 candidate country.
A nation free to make its own choices. Free to choose its own destiny. Free to live the values that bind us all.
Thank you for standing up. For inspiring the world.

Addressing 🇺🇦 @ua_parliament with President @ZelenskyyUa, Speaker @r_stefanchuk, 🇱🇹 President @GitanasNauseda & MPs - on 🇺🇦 Statehood Day - is an honour. More than that, it is a responsibility.
🇪🇺 marks this day with you. In solidarity. In friendship. In a bond as Europeans.

Appalled by the execution of pro-democracy activists, including a former lawmaker, by Myanmar’s Junta.
I condemn this outrageous violation of human rights in the strongest possible terms.
Capital punishment is inhumane and should be abolished worldwide.

Today marks 10 years from the death of Sakharov Prize laureate Oswaldo Payá. A tireless crusader for freedom and democracy in #Cuba.
Payá dedicated his life to the belief that one day Cubans would be free. May his powerful example inspire and never be forgotten.

As Russia’s illegal invasion is soon in its sixth month, we cannot allow war fatigue to set in.
Aid to 🇺🇦 will not stop. We will continue isolating Russia & weaken its finances.
Today’s ‘maintenance & alignment’ package strengthens current sanctions & makes them more effective.
