#EuropeDay is coming! Each year on May 9, we mark the signing of the Schuman Declaration in 1950. This established the European Coal and Steel Community, the very beginning of the EU we know today. Below, some memorable words from EU Founding Father Robert Schuman.

The global economy is fragmenting, which presents risks & uncertainty.
But EU response must build on openness, NOT protectionism.
Global trade is still growing.
Bolstering global ties will support our economic/geopolitical strength & build resilient supply chains.

RT @EUAmbUS: On #WorldPressFreedomDay, we can all be “human rights defenders.” So let’s.
Indifference weakens freedoms and emboldens autocrats. It allows for independent journalists to be silenced.
@evangershkovich @WSJ is one of them, among too many others. Russia should free him, now.

In EU effort to speed up ammunition delivery to #Ukraine, Member States just agreed on so-called track 2.
This will allow to use €1 billion from European Peace Facility #EPF for joint procurement and help deliver 1 million rounds of ammunition over 12 months.
