Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen@respublicae.eu

Your determination to forge ahead on your European path is amazing.
 
You are taking notable steps forward to meet our recommendations, while at the same time fighting an invasion.

We will continue to support your efforts on making further progress.

Good to be back in Kyiv, my 4th time since Russia‘s invasion.

This time, with my team of Commissioners.

We are here together to show that the EU stands by Ukraine as firmly as ever.

And to deepen further our support and cooperation.

First phone call with the president-elect of Czechia @general_pavel to congratulate him on yesterday’s elections and to invite him to Brussels.

We had a good first discussion on our joint priorities, in particular the EU’s support to Ukraine as long as it takes.

🇲🇹 Good news for Malta!

With the progress made in implementing its recovery plan, Malta can get a first payment under #NextGenerationEU

So, as soon, as Member States agree too, Malta will receive over €50 million.

We will always remember the millions of victims murdered during the Holocaust.

But remembrance is not an aim in itself.

We must go a step further.

Let us fight antisemitism, which is on the rise today.

And let us make Jewish life prosper in an open, equal EU society.

The “Made in Europe 🇪🇺” label means quality.
And so much more.

It’s a statement of who we are.

A diverse continent full of creativity, where we protect the environment.

Where workers earn a decent wage.

Where entrepreneurs can thrive and where no one is left behind.

We look forward to maintaining a positive momentum in 🇪🇺🇮🇱 relations, I told @Isaac_Herzog

We discussed the need for sustained support to Ukraine and work to promote peace in the Middle East.

And the importance of fostering Jewish life in 🇪🇺 ahead of #HolocaustRemembranceDay

Good meeting with @MinPres Rutte ahead of the next #EUCO

We discussed migration and took stock of ongoing reflections on competitiveness.

We also touched upon accountability for Russia’s crime in Ukraine.

Hartelijk dank aan Hunne Majesteiten Koning Filip en Koningin Mathilde voor de ontvangst in het Koninklijk Paleis.

Glad to meet @antoniocostapm

Ahead of the next #EUCO we discussed competitiveness, trade with the opportunity to take forward EU-Mercosur, and support to Ukraine.

We also discussed the rollout of #NextGenEU and energy connectivity - key for Portugal, key for Europe as a whole.

Very good working session with @Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz in Berlin in preparation of the 🇪🇺🇺🇦 Summit and the European Council in February.

We focused on 🇪🇺 competitiveness and migration.

We want to promote free and fair trade relations between the EU and its partners.

The latest symbol of Russia’s terror is a yellow kitchen in an apartment building in Dnipro.

Lives shattered by Russia’s imperialism.

We condemn this new barbaric act and remain at Ukraine’s side for as long as it takes.

Our EU energy platform is at work to prepare for next winter.

With our European consortium, we aggregate demand for gas to get better prices for citizens & businesses.

Our negotiations with gas suppliers should allow us to conclude first joint contracts well before this summer.

Our hard work on energy is paying off.

Now we need the same collective ambition for the year ahead.

We need to maintain the competitiveness of our economy.

The transformational task to reach net zero is huge.

Our answer is the Green Deal Industrial Plan.

Good exchange with business leaders at @wef

We need to join forces to boost the clean tech investments in Europe and accelerate the transition.

Together, we can strengthen Europe‘s economy and maintain high paying jobs in Europe.

🇺🇦 Such a pleasure to meet @ZelenskaUA

The EU’s solidarity with Ukraine is growing ever stronger.

We support Ukraine to recover and rebuild and we join forces to take care of Ukrainian children.

Bring them back to school and give them a bright future.

The EU and the US share a deep commitment to addressing the climate crisis and accelerating on the way to net-zero.

We are working to ensure that our incentive programmes for clean tech are fair and mutually reinforcing.

Merci cher @emmanuelmacron pour ces échanges constructifs sur les perspectives pour cette nouvelle année, en amont de notre prochain Conseil européen.

Ukraine, énergie, compétitivité, migration, autant de sujets sur lesquels l’UE doit avancer unie pour être efficace.

Допомога Україні у забезпеченні її фінансових потреб для протистояння російській агресії надзвичайно важлива та невідкладна.

Комісія діє з максимальною швидкістю та рішучістю:

Вже завтра ми виплатимо перші 3 млрд євро з 18 млрд євро макрофінансової підтримки погодженої в грудні
