No political group raised objections.
Special thanks goes to @EP_President @RobertaMetsola for her unrelenting support. 1/2

After more than a century-long occupation by Tsarist Russia, Lithuanian nation restores its statehood from the ashes.
I'm grateful to my grandparents' generation for laying the foundations of the modern Lithuanian state, which is now a member of EU and NATO. #V16 🇱🇹

Today @europarl_en adopted an urgency resolution on the dire condition of @SaakashviliM
The text is clear - Bidzina Ivanishvili is responsible "for ongoing detention [of Saakasvhili] as part of a personal vendetta"

Дякую, Україно, for defending peace!
A year ago you and your people did not get scared fending off terrorist Russia. We shouldn't get scared either.
There is still a lot to do so that another anniversary would not be needed. We are working on it.

🇪🇺Europe should focus now on providing tanks, fighter jets, and other types of munition to Ukraine.
🇺🇦But even before Ukraine secures a victory, we must start the prep work for the future!
"That future is with Ukraine in the EU and NATO", says @rjukneviciene.

Democracies will prevail against Putin's and Lukashenko's dictatorships without Orban, because that is what the Ukrainians and Belarusians are fighting for.
However, this Hungarian Foreign Affairs Minister will remain in the darkest pages of European history.

President of Ukraine, Mr @ZelenskyyUa, addressed the @europarl_en today.
He is not only the President of Ukraine, but the President of the Free World. He is also the President of free Russians, who believe that someday their country can be different.

Early in the war, we called for Ukraine's EU candidate status, the supply of arms and the establishment of a tribunal as EU top priorities.
“We must continue to help Ukrainians to defeat Putin as soon as possible”, says @rjukneviciene.
