By 2030 textiles placed on the EU market must be long-lived and recyclable, free of hazardous substances and produced in a fair way.
The #EUGreenDeal was the topic of the first #EUatEXPO event.

We will do all we can so they can safely return home.
This is what @JosepBorrellF and I will tell President @ZelenskyyUa in Kyiv this week.
RT @vonderleyen: We have all seen the haunting images of Bucha.
This is what is happening when Putin´s soldiers occupy Ukrainian territory.
They call this liberation.
I call this war crimes.
The Russian authorities will have to answer for them. https://nitter.eu/i/broadcasts/1gqGvlOZjRRxB
RT @JosepBorrellF: This war cannot end with #Ukraine destroyed, dominated, torn apart, and with millions of refugees and thousands dead.
To avoid this, we continue to support Ukraine, strengthen the EU and our unity, and reduce our energy dependence.
