So in the span of one week, Russia has compared @ZelenskyyUa to Hitler AND Voldemort.
RT @lapatina_: Russian state media: “Signs of black magic were found in Ukrainian military headquarters”. A whole new level of idiocy from the Ministry of Truth
What a moment! The European Parliament just voted in favor of transnational lists— to make our elections truly European🇪🇺
Citizens can cast
🗳 1 vote for national parties
🗳 1 vote for corresponding euro-parties
For a strong parliamentary democracy & a genuine EU public sphere
18 years ago today, Hungary joined the European Union. A beautiful, historic day.
We now know we can never take this achievement for granted— and we have to fight every day for our European future.
Highly alarming news about #LGBTQ rights in Romania.
And also something we have been telling the @EU_Commission for ages: if you fail to stand up against autocratization in one member state, it will spread to others. https://www.hotnews.ro/stiri-politic-25523895-senatul-adoptat-tacit-proiect-lege-anti-lgbt-depus-sapte-parlamentari-udmr-similar-celui-din-ungaria-lui-viktor-orban.htm
RT @alemannoEU: As the Conference on the Future of Europe comes to an end, what can we reasonably expect?
(Spoiler: a fight over whether, how, and on what to re-open the Treaties NOW)
🧵 #CoFoE
The fact that #Gazprom still has a lobbyist with access to the European Parliament is mindblowing. https://ec.europa.eu/transparencyregister/public/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=622135013267-04
All their lobbying privileges must be suspended— NOW!
RT @salima_yenbou: 🇪🇺 Avec @IoanDragosT & 65 eurodéputé-es, j'ai écrit à @eucopresident @vonderleyen @JosepBorrellF concernant les viols de masse perpétrés en Ukraine 🇺🇦 par l'armée russe 🇷🇺
Nous appelons à un travail d'enquête approfondi sur le terrain pour permettre à la justice d'être rendue !
Slovenia 🇸🇮 ousting its wannabe autocrat is excellent news for the #RuleOfLaw & our fight to stop the Orbanization of Europe.
Well done 👏
RT @ijoveva: According to exit polls, Slovenia has ousted illiberal populist with a large majority.
Unexpected huge turnout. The people have spoken.
On this day, after two years, Slovenia begins to reverse its devastating drift toward illiberal autocracy.
Never again!
A victory for Europe,
a defeat for Putin.
Congratulations to @EmmanuelMacron & all our @RenewEurope colleagues in France!

One of the highlights of the campaign was meeting @TheDailyShow crew on the Danube bank. Their Hungary special is now out!👇🎥

As I told @jordanklepper— we’ll keep fighting, because our country deserves so much better.
At today’s EP hearing, we had the distinct honor to listen to @kalponaakter— former child worker, now director of Bangladesh Center for Worker Solidarity
She warned us that @EU_Commission’s proposed due diligence directive may fall short of its goal if its scope is not widened
Beyond that Russian loan, there was this one too👇Those trying to destroy Europe have a vested interest in a Le Pen victory— they even invested in it #Ledebat
RT @katka_cseh: Bank partly owned by oligarch Lorinc Meszaros propped up pro-Kremlin, far right Le Pen with a huge loan. This basically means Orban funneled HU taxpayer funds to her
It’s not a business decision (makes zero business sense)— it’s political interference in a key …
RT @EurLiberalForum: "If the EU is not putting more money into financing investigative journalism, then media freedom will deteriorate in the EU. We need this scrutiny to keep our liberal democracies functioning".
- @katka_cseh MEP, @RenewEurope
RT @judithbuntingld: Prep underway at @kbrbe for the @EurLiberalForum #IdeaAccelerator on Media Freedom starting this afternoon.
See you soon @marcusryder @katka_cseh @RenewEurope @Telexhu @PaddyForum
Glad to see the Pegasus inquiry committee starting its crucial work at @europarl_en
RT @donath_anna: We now know what we could only have guessed: several EU governments have built surveillance states with the #Pegasus cyberweapon. /1
Relaxing, joyful & #HappyEaster to you all! 🐇
RT @EricHolthaus: Your periodic reminder that this was the headline a week ago today but you may not have read it because an actor slapped another actor at an awards show
A crucial, consequential first-round victory— also for Europe 🇪🇺
Congratulations to our @RenewEurope friends & allies in France👏 and best of luck for the second round!
RT @DaveKeating: BREAKING: #Macron beats #LePen in French #presidentielles2022 first round election.
A larger spread than 2017.
RT @RenewEurope: We call for all EU countries to identify & expel Russian & Belarusian covert operatives active on EU soil!
The @EU_Commission must conduct a thorough assessment of the use of visa-free travel to the EU to identify loopholes.
No more free passes to Putin’s proxies!
Today was not the day. But the day will come. We will always have faith in a better Hungary— and we need Europe to have faith in us too.
RT @katka_cseh: Every oppressive regime falls one day. Let today be the day for us.
