When we feel represented. 😊 Well done Roberta! #StandWithUkraine
RT @EP_President: The invasion of #Ukraine is unjustified and unacceptable.

With 🇺🇦 Prime Minister @Denys_Shmyhal, we spoke about the need for more and further reaching sanctions.

We must go further still. Europe will meet this moment.

@ricbdc “partner” a “competitor” & a “systemic rival.” isn't it full of paradoxes? 😆

@HBurnay Sobre a dificuldade de liderança, não me recordo se foi o @MMonjardino ou o @bcreis37 que numa aula disse “Alemanha é demasiado pequena para ser uma potência global, e demasiado grande para a Europa”.

In the end, we will have to vote the final version and we will have a new opportunity to stand with our views on the matter. @EPPGroup will always stand by innovation, entrepreneurs and citizens initiative to generate growth and create jobs. 16/16

We were a minority position in some compromises and we accept the democratic outcome, voting in favor of the mandate to start negotiations. @EPPGroup will keep its commitment to these aspects of the EP position and will closely follow negotiations with the Council. 15/16

I want to remind that the decision of the EP is not the final draft of this revised legislation. We are now starting negotiations with the EU Council to reach the final version of this legislation. 14/16

Instead of limiting our space for decision, the EU must promote economic freedom and fair competition. Using this Regulation to create an anathema on crypto-assets and its users, associating almost automatically investments on crypto to criminal activity, is the wrong way. 12/16

However, political groups agreed on important matters related to data protection, the link to AML/CFT, the inclusion of restrictive measures, the systematic coherence with the crypto-assets legal framework, among other specific (but important) issues. 13/16

The final drafting is not a total ban, but can lead to a de facto ban, if regulated providers face major costs on the operational level of identification and verification. 10/16

Banning is to condemn part of the industry, to create a wrong association to criminal activity of people that legitimately use these wallets and is to block the transfers to or from regulated providers of crypto-assets transfers, minimizing the potential impact of the TFR. 9/16

On unhosted wallets, it is only natural that these wallets must be addressed in the Regulation, but the path to a ban is not the solution. 8/16

and it can represent a major obstacle – through additional compliance costs for companies and citizens – to innovation in financial services. 7/16

The deletion of the de minimis threshold to trigger the obligations provisioned in the Regulation for providers of crypto-assets transfers, that was proposed by the Commission, is an error. This creates an unlevelled playing field for crypto and wire transfers; 6/16

This is a technical and political sensitive piece of legislation requires much more time, debate, negotiations and dialogue with stakeholders. The rush to approve a position led us to a text that could have been more balanced. 4/16
