“Right when solidarity and partnerships with the Global South are needed more than ever, all Europe seems to be able to dig deep for is migration.” It’s not only a moral shame, it’s shortsighted. Many reasons for the EU to take leadership in solving global crises.

Orban sold one veto for 10 billion euros. His vetoes severely hamper support to Ukraine, worldwide leadership, a sound EU budget, but they also expose a lack of credibility on rule of law. Council: deprive him of his voting rights. Commission: don’t allow blackmails ever again.

BREAK: The European Parliament just adopted a resolution urging Frontex to suspend operational activities in Greece because of pushbacks and violence against migrants and refugees.
The EP resolution is a follow-up of the Frontex investigation I led two years ago. 🧵

R to @Tineke_Strik: The EP urges Frontex to be more proactive in protecting fundamental rights, and recommends:
- An immediate suspension of return activities of migrants in Hungary
- Impact assessments prior to third-country negotiations
- Full cooperation with the Ombudsman inquiry into Pylos

Unblocking more than10 billion EU funding to Hungary, as a reward for improving judicial independence, is a slap in the face of all Hungarians fighting for a true and effective restoration of democracy and rule of law. No appeasement but enforcement!

De rechtsstaat in Hongarije is nog niet hersteld. Dat betekent simpelweg dat EU-fondsen voor het land bevroren moeten blijven, ook als Orbán dreigt met veto's rondom EU-steun aan Oekraïne.
We mogen nooit onze oren laten hangen naar autocraten.

Jina Masha Amini, whose death triggered a massive ‘Woman, Life, Freedom’ Movement, is being awarded the Sacharov Prize. The Iranian regime denied her family the right to travel to Brussels. But the movement is much broader and unstoppable. We need to remain at their side.

A decision to release EU funds for Hungary would be a grave mistake by Commission president

Het Iraanse regime heeft de paspoorten van de familie Amini ingenomen om te voorkomen dat zij afreizen naar Straatsburg voor de Sacharovprijs. Het toont opnieuw hoe wreed en systematisch de Iraanse bevolking wordt onderdrukt.
