R to @kajakallas: For the Kremlin, democratic governance in Europe is a threat that it tries to destroy.
It sees liberal democracy as its biggest enemy.
This is why it invaded Ukraine and this is what Ukraine is fighting for today - for all of us. 5/

R to @kajakallas: We live under a flood of disinformation and propaganda, especially from malign foreign actors.
Putin's shadow war targets our democracies. Russia uses different means, including social media, to manipulate public opinion and erode trust in democratic institutions. 4/

R to @kajakallas: We can also see a certain impatience to get the economy growing – leading to a search for solutions at odds with Hayek’s views.
But quick fixes may undermine long-term stability and the Single Market. 3/

R to @kajakallas: The last years have been a time of polycrisis – the pandemic, higher energy prices, Russia’s war against Ukraine and now an economic downturn.
This means we are in search for a new normal in economic policy. We must navigate beyond crisis mode to rebuild our economies. 2/

In my interview to

https://nitter.privacydev.net/SpecialReport
, I stressed that our goal must be nothing less than Ukraine’s victory, otherwise global security is at stake.
No war hasbeen won if you don’t set victory as the goal. Europe’s doing its share to support Ukraine.

Wrote a joint letter with 14
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23EUCO
leaders.
There is an increased need for more investments in the security and defence sector in Europe.
One avenue to achieve this is to enhance

’s financing for security and defence in line with EU’s priorities.

Together we will stop Russian aggression - freedom and democracy will prevail.

In my interview to NPR
https://nitter.privacydev.net/nprscottsimon
, I outlined that if Russia won in Ukraine, it would affect overall global security – if aggression pays off somewhere, it serves as an invitation to use it elsewhere.

Explained to
https://nitter.privacydev.net/BBC
how Putin is using the trap of fear against our societies.
By doing this, he is trying to make us refrain from the decisions we would otherwise make.
To avoid falling into his traps, we must remember what Putin himself is afraid of:

RT by @kajakallas: Estonian PM @kajakallas was one of the most compelling interviews I did for the book. Regarding Putin and the many in the West now urging a deal with him, she quoted Churchill on Hitler: “An appeaser is one who feeds the crocodile hoping it will eat him last.”

The new
https://nitter.privacydev.net/netflix
series about the Cold War is out. I explain based on Estonia's and my family's history why we can't let Russian aggression pay off in Ukraine. If we fail, we'll wake up in a more dangerous world. Weakness provokes aggressors, not strength.

We discussed the activities of the European Court of Auditors and how to enhance cooperation with EU institutions and member states.
Our focus should be on effectiveness and cutting the administrative burden.
