#PFAS chemicals can be found in water, soil, food packaging... And they could be harmful to our body.
Today like many other Europeans, I took a test to measure their level in my blood. We must expand our knowledge, and this is my small step to make it happen.

I commend Portugal’s cybersecurity council for its thoughtful decision implementing the EU’s 5G security toolbox.

Threats have no place and will not deter Europe from legitimate measures to protect its critical infrastructure.

Good meeting w. @sundarpichai. We need the #AIAct as soon as possible. But AI technology evolves at extreme speed. So we need voluntary agreement on universal rules for #AI now. Already discussed at #G7 digital in Takakasi. We will follow up in the #TTC next week. No time to lose
