The adoption of the 2020-2025 LGBTIQ equality strategy was a positive breakthrough for the promotion of the LGBTIQ rights in the EU and beyond.

25 years ago, brave leaders made the impossible come true by signing the Good Friday (Belfast) Agreement.
It not only ended 30 years of the Troubles, but also opened a new era of cooperation.
The Windsor Framework supports the same spirit and promise.

#DYK that prematurely tossed reparable products cause 261 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions in the EU every year?

The EU will be the first region worldwide to have a driving licence that works across borders:
🔹 it will be accessible through a mobile phone, and
🔹 would be recognised throughout the EU.
This would make it easier to replace, renew or exchange a driving licence at EU level.

Thousands of children have been abducted by Russia.
This war crime justifies the arrest warrants issued against Putin by the @IntlCrimCourt.
Together with Poland we will organise a conference to launch an initiative aiming at bringing back these children.

One year ago, Russia's bombing of the Kramatorsk train station deeply shocked the world.
It was a brutal attack on innocent civilians, including children, fleeing amid fears of another Russian onslaught against their homes.
Putin must be held accountable for his crimes.
