The Delegation was welcomed by Professor of Political Sociology at Queen's University Belfast @hayward_katy, who is an internationally recognised expert on Brexit and Northern Ireland/Ireland.
Today, the MEPs of the @EP_Trade delegation @berndlange, @SeanKellyMEP, @NathalieLoiseau, @svensimon, @RodriguezPinero, @BarryAndrewsMEP and Ernő Schaller-Baross travelled to Belfast to discuss practical issues in relation to the implementation of the Northern Ireland Protocol.
RT @EP_President: What is happening now in #Kyiv is sickening.
It shows the world, again, the regime we are faced with: One that targets indiscriminately. One that rains terror & death down on children.
This is criminal. They will be held to account. Ukraine will win. Europe will not look away.
RT @EP_President: At #EUCO in Prague today, on behalf of @europarl_en, my message is:
⚪ Provide Ukraine with much needed heavy weapons and tanks. Our response must continue to match the threat.
⚪ We should not outbid each other. On energy, we need joint procurement.
RT @EP_President: Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia - just like Crimea - are and will remain part of independent and sovereign Ukraine.
No sham referenda can ever change this.
EU consumers will soon be able to use a single charging solution for their electronic devices after the European Parliament adopted plans for this yesterday. Please release: http://eptwitter.eu/q8X8
RT @EP_President: Pleasure to welcome Professor @azadeh_kian to Strasbourg.

By 2030, the @europarl_en wants renewable energy to be used much more, and energy consumption to be greatly reduced.

Every year in September the EU organises the global #EUBeachCleanup campaign to raise awareness of how litter is polluting our rivers, seas and oceans.
RT @EP_President: Yulia Navalnaya's tenacity & resistance are an inspiration.
Your and @navalny's determination & courage in standing up for a democratic Russia is commendable & impressive.
Because of our common values - peace, democracy, rule of law - @europarl_en welcomes you with open arms.
RT @europarl_en: 🎉 Happy European Day of Languages!
The EU has promoted language learning across Europe for a long time because it:
•Creates personal and professional opportunities
•Fosters cultural awareness
•Helps businesses to succeed and grow in global markets
RT @EP_President: United in diversity.
There's no better day to celebrate our EU motto than today, on the European Day of Languages.
Understanding the power of Europe is best in your own language.
