15 years ago, on 8.08.2008, #Russia invaded #Georgia.
The invasion of #Crimea followed in 2014, the war against #Ukraine in 2022.
We can not change the past, but we have the obligation to learn and not repeat past mistakes:
Be firm against Russia, support Ukraine, stay united!

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro #Sanchez has jeopardised enough #Spain's EU Council Presidency.
It is time he recognises his defeat, allows the election winner @NunezFeijoo @ppopular to govern the country and successfully conclude the Council Presidency.

El presidente del Gobierno español, Pedro #Sanchez ha puesto bastante en peligro la Presidencia del Consejo UE.
Es hora de que reconozca su derrota, que permita al ganador @NunezFeijoo @ppopular que gobierne y concluya con éxito la Presidencia del Consejo.

Re @MWlachovsky The choice is not between war or peace, the choice is between the survival or the surrendering of Ukraine.
Defeating the aggressor is the only choice.
@MWlachovsky is right.

Re @EUCouncil's reading of the 2024 Draft @EU_Budget proves that the Council acts as a copy machine - I said today during the budget trialogue between @europarl_en, @EU_Commission and @EUCouncil on #EUbudget for 2024. 1/2

Re @EUCouncil is copying the same amounts as in the 2023 #EUbudget, even though the situation we are facing is different, the absorption capacity in several programs is increasing and needs have changed. New priorities cannot be ignored. 2/2

My message for @EUCouncil is: hope is not a strategy when negotiating a €190 bn @EU_Budget. @EUCouncil proposes cuts to @EU_Commission's proposal for 2024 #EUbudget, hoping there will be no need for more money. 1/3

Re ➡cuts to EURI interest rate payments hoping interest rates will decrease. Unlikely!
➡cuts to @HorizonEU even though it is oversubscribed & EU urgently needs more R&D funding. Unwise!
➡no margins for EU budget, ZERO capacity to react to unforeseen situations. Irresponsible! 2/3

Re ➡@EUCouncil does not take into consideration the Multiannual Financial Framework (#MFF) revision proposal even though it will create space for maneuver in the @EU_Budget.

It is weakness, not strength, that provokes Russia. The stronger we are, the better it is for our relation with #Russia. What we need to do now is to support #Ukraine in all its needs. Secondly, as soon as it is possible, Ukraine should become a #NATO Member State.

In order to make #EU stronger in the face of unpredictable situations, we need more resources - I said today in the @europarl_en plenary. As the General Rapporteur for the #EUBudget for 2024, I say that the Multiannual Financial Framework #MFF revision is crucial.
