RT @JorgWojahn: 🇷🇺 #Desinformation in 🇪🇺: „Deutschland ist das Schlachtfeld eines Kriegs der Worte“, warnt @EU_Commission Vizepräsidentin @VeraJourova heute im Europäischen🇪🇺Haus Berlin. “Russland nimmt Deutschland besonders ins Visier. Denn sie denken, wenn sie 🇩🇪 brechen, bricht ganz Europa.” https://t.co/tl5o2iZHe6

Always a pleasure to meet Minister for Culture and the Media Claudia Roth.

Thank you for the good discussion and your support for the Media Freedom Act, and your support for Russian independent media.

These initiatives are crucial for EU’s democratic leadership.

Values should not stay on paper, we should actively defend them together.

Thank you Chair Hofreiter, Chair Winkelmeier-Becker for the warm welcome, strong support and the very good discussion with Members of @Bundestag.

Great debate organised by @BertelsmannFdn on how to protect and strengthen our democracy.

We have stepped up efforts to address internal and external threats, to counter disinformation and promote media freedom.

In upcoming Defence of Democracy we will complement these actions.

Disinformation and foreign information manipulation is a security risk. The Kremlin is fighting its war with bombs in Ukraine and with words in the EU.

Thank you to the organisations working on countering disinfo for your work. You need strategic support to play your vital role.

Guten Tag, Berlin!

🇪🇺🇩🇪

I am here to discuss how we can strengthen our democracies, in particular in the face of Russia’s war against Ukraine.

We need German leadership for Ukraine’s victory, to fight disinformation and to protect media freedom in the EU.

Happy to debate on the integration of 🇺🇦 into the 🇪🇺.

Ukraine’s great ambition and willingness to move ahead with reforms despite the raging war is admirable.

While the EU accession path is a marathon without shortcuts, and not a sprint, I hope to welcome them soon.

Ráda jsem se dnes v Bruselu setkala se studenty @FMV_VSE.

Potěšil mě zájem o 🇪🇺, fungování @EU_Commission, její legislativní proces i moje portfolio.

Budete to vy, kdo bude určovat další směřování Evropy. Těším se, že se naše cesty zase potkají, ať už v 🇧🇪 nebo 🇨🇿.

Each and every of these 1 186 children from different EU countries can have an impact on future 🇪🇺.

It was a pleasure to see you & answer your questions.

Remember, if you want to become politicians and make a change, you need to be stubborn and believe in yourself.

Arman Soldin was killed while covering Russia’s war against Ukraine.

My thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues. 

Journalists and media workers risk their lives to inform us.

The war should end with a just peace for Ukraine. Justice should be served.
RT @AFP: We are devastated to learn of the death of AFP video journalist Arman Soldin in eastern Ukraine today.

All of our thoughts go out to his family and loved ones. https://t.co/T2y449o1Ry

As Robert Schuman said 73 years ago: "Europe will not be made all at once, or according to a single plan. It will be built through concrete achievements which first create a de facto solidarity."

On #EuropeDay, I think of 🇺🇦 where our values are hold dear and defended.

In regulating of #AI, our main task is to protect us, humans.

I strongly disagree that innovation and fundamental rights can´t go hand in hand.

AI can bring new methods to media sector but together with all European news agencies @EANANews we disscused the pros and cons.

Impressed by the action of @nathalieappereas as the mayor of #Rennes.

Thank you @EP_President for the truly cross-party discussion on the interinstitutional Ethics Body.

A culture of transparency and integrity is key for democratic processes and will be further strengthened by the upcoming Defence of Democracy package.
