This is a new beginning for the EU’s digital health policy, making health data work for peop…

RT @vonderleyen: It comes as no surprise that the Kremlin uses fossil fuels to blackmail us.
This is something the @EU_Commission has been preparing for, with Member States and international partners.
Our response will be immediate, united and coordinated.
#PlayingMyPart - getting independent of Russian gas, helping the green transition. Simple steps are also effective when we do it together!
RT @IEA: Our new guide offering simple steps for EU citizens to reduce their energy use & save money is out now, produced with @Energy4Europe.
These actions could save enough oil to fill 120 super tankers & enough natural gas to heat 20 million homes.
Thanks 💚
RT @FrancesHaugen: Congratulations!! For the first time in history, the public is going to be able to ask independent questions about how @Meta and the other big platforms work and get the data to see the truth. History in the making!! Come on USA, now it's our turn. 🎉
Everything depends on the teams - the team of teams of @europarl_en, @EUCouncil & @EU_Commission made #DSA happen last night! Thanks 💚
It’s a wrap! We have a deal on the #DSA! Two years after we tabled the proposal 🙏 @SchaldemoseMEP and @cedric_o - and our amazing teams - for great cooperation 🇪🇺
Ta da! 16 hours, lots of sweets (but cookies still declined ;) We have a deal on the #DSA: The Digital Services Act will make sure that what is illegal offline is also seen & dealt with as illegal online - not as a slogan, as reality! And always protecting freedom of expression!
Arrived and ready for the negotiation on the #DSA today! We may take a big step today for a safe and accountable online environment: What is illegal offline, should also be seen and treated as illegal online! #bridgebuilding
We never know how a crisis will look. But we do know that crisis management requires a smooth functioning 🇪🇺 #SingleMarket. With preparation we can better anticipate how to deal with a new crisis situation. So have your say here: https://bit.ly/3JTMVCs
