It's good to welcome President @ZelenskyyUa in the heart of European democracy. Our support for #Ukraine will not waiver. This war also concerns our freedom, our democracy & our future. The EU must stand united in solidarity against Russia's brutal aggression.

Finally! A coordinated 🇪🇺 withdrawal from the Energy Charter Treaty is the only right option. #ExitECT
RT @BJVerbeek: 🚨 It's official now. The European Commission is proposing a coordinated 🇪🇺 withdrawal from the Energy Charter Treaty #ExitECT 🔥
EU member states must now back this proposal and prepare arrangements to neutralize the sunset clause.

This flagship report is based on #RedCross local experience. It focuses on #COVID19 – how we were not equipped to respond & how we can prepare more effectively for future public health emergencies. 🧵

Unavoidable.👇 I agree. Looking forward to finally see the @EU_Commission's plan for a coordinated European withdrawal from the #EnergyCharterTreaty. Time to stop dragging our feet.

Devastating earthquake rocked Türkiye and Syria this morning, claiming the lives of hundreds of people and injuring many more.
Our thoughts are with the people of Türkiye and Syria. The EU is ready to help.

Al 9 sanctiepakketten lang ontsnapt Russische diamant aan Europese sancties. Hoog tijd dat Europa bloeddiamant uit Rusland sanctioneert. 💎 #RussianDiamonds

Enhanced traceability & due diligence are the way forward. 💎 But the EU can't stay behind on #RussianDiamonds sanctions. @EU_Commission @EUCouncil The time is now. Put #Alrosa on the sanctions list. Include #RussianDiamonds in the 10th sanctions package. Defund Putin's war.
RT @hansmerket: Something's cooking... #RussianDiamonds 💎🇷🇺
In US, @jvclegal encourages diamond trade to devote "serious focus" to traceability and "dedicate additional resources to sanctions …

Without a more ambitious and sanction based approach on sustainability, including labour rights and deforestation, there will not be an EU-Mercosur agreement any time soon. No matter how important geopolitics are. #Mercosur

RT @thijsreuten: No, Mr Orbán. You are wrong.
Ukraine is fighting heroically. To protect its children, defend its country 🇺🇦 and safeguard European values.
The very same values of democracy and #RuleOfLaw you’re trying to destroy.
The only one who should quit is you.

Elke werknemer verdient een eerlijke loon, sociale zekerheid en sociale bescherming. Ook als ze voor online platformen werken.
Het Europees Parlement wil medewerkers van platformen als Uber en Deliveroo als werknemers erkennen. 💪 @vooruit_nu @btb_abvv

Als Uber, Deliveroo & Helpling hun chauffeurs, koeriers en schoonmakers niet beschermen, dan doen wij het wel! Alle Europese werknemers verdienen sociale bescherming. 💪
Klaar voor de onderhandelingen met de Europese Raad en de Europese Commissie.

Een herschikking van wat bestaande fondsen, een rebranding van enkele maatregelen en het label van de green deal. Dit plan volstaat niet. Wat we nodig hebben is een écht nieuw investeringsfonds op basis van eigen middelen én een duidelijk actieplan. https://www.hln.be/nieuws/europese-commissie-legt-groene-industrieplan-op-tafel~a37ca07f/

56 miljard dollar. Een recordwinst te midden van een wereldwijde energiecrisis. Maar ExxonMobil trekt wel naar de rechter om een Europese overwinstbelasting aan te vechten. Compleet verwerpelijk. https://www.demorgen.be/a-b4e7d37e

This is key to enhance citizens’ trust in the EU.
