Glad to start my Western Balkans tour in Albania with my friend
https://nitter.privacydev.net/ediramaal
Albania is making great strides towards the EU.
It is the result of many years of hard work.
Dear Edi, you have shown both vision and patience.
And it’s paying off.

Two Presidents, one breakthrough.
With
https://nitter.privacydev.net/EP_President
Metsola, we just agreed on the key principles for a new, stronger cooperation between the Commission and the Parliament.
It's a promise from my political guidelines.
Promise delivered.
Now let’s draft the text together.

I'm glad that
https://nitter.privacydev.net/ZelenskyyUa
joined us today.
We will stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes - now with a loan of up to €35 billion.
We want a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.
In parallel, we are preparing for what will come after peace is achieved ↓

Good meeting with Mohammed bin Salman.
We want to strengthen EU-GCC cooperation.
Build an economic corridor to increase trade in renewable energy, data and people-to-people exchanges.
And work together to ensure the security we all need for economic growth.

Glad to meet with social partners at this challenging time for Europe‘s economy.
Together, we must boost our competitiveness while preserving our social model.
This means investing in clean industries and skills to improve productivity and quality jobs in Europe.

Welcome to Brussels
https://nitter.privacydev.net/KristenMichalPM
!
Estonia is a leading supporter of Ukraine and showing Europe the way.
We discussed Russia‘s threat to its neighbors, the future of EU defence and migration.
This week's EUCO will be an opportunity to show resolve on all these fronts.

With the Growth Plan, we open the door to specific areas of the Single Market.
We encourage reforms & match them with investments.
Our plan is delivering.
The funds can start flowing before the end of the year ↓

R to @vonderleyen: Early economic integration is key to the success of enlargement.
 
The Common Regional Market plays a key role.
 
The better it functions, the better the Western Balkans’ economies can be gradually integrated in our Single Market.

[2024-10-14 09:42 UTC]

It’s the 10th anniversary of the Berlin Process.
So it’s good to be in Berlin with our Western Balkan partners.
To look back on our achievements, but especially to look forward.
Towards a future where all six Western Balkan partners are part of our Union.

The spectre of Hiroshima and Nagasaki still looms over humanity.
This makes the advocacy of Nihon Hidankyo invaluable.
This Nobel Peace Prize sends a powerful message.
We have the duty to remember.
And an even greater duty to protect the next generations from the horrors of nuclear war.

Moldova made remarkable progress since it became a candidate.
We can start bringing the Moldovan economy closer to ours already now.
To help double its size in a decade.
This means good jobs and a better quality of life for Moldovans ↓

Dear President,
https://nitter.privacydev.net/sandumaiamd
, it’s always a pleasure to come and meet you in Chisinau.
I can feel Europe’s pulse beating here.
Moldova has shown time and again how vibrantly European it is.
I believe your country’s place is in our European Union.

[2024-10-10 07:26 UTC]

The EU stands by the people affected by the crisis in Lebanon.
Today, we launch a Humanitarian Air Bridge with three flights loaded with in-kind emergency aid.
From blankets to shelter kits and medicines.
More will come.

[2024-10-09 10:27 UTC]

I want to address the Hungarian people.
We are one family.
Your story is our story.
Your future is our future.
Ten million Hungarians are ten million good reasons to keep shaping our future together.

[2024-10-09 07:56 UTC]

Today I would like to focus on some of the most pressing issues that we are facing during the
https://nitter.privacydev.net/HU24EU
Presidency of the Council.
First, Ukraine. Second, competitiveness. Third, migration.
Issues that deserve a clear, united European front ↓

On 7 October 2023, Hamas killed or abducted people for one reason.
Because they were Jews.
Today we mourn them.
Our thoughts are with all those for whom time has stopped on October 7th.
With all the innocent victims of the tragic chain of events that was set off by Hamas ↓

Statement on the one-year anniversary of the 7 October 2023 acts of terror against Israel ↓

Leaders of the G7 are united in expressing their deep concern over the deteriorating situation in the Middle East.
We condemn in the strongest terms Iran’s direct military attack against Israel, which constitutes a serious threat to regional stability.

[2024-10-03 19:02 UTC]

The EU is stepping up its humanitarian aid to Lebanon, to over €100 million this year.
A new €30 million package will ensure civilians get much needed assistance.
Once again, we call for a ceasefire across the border with Lebanon and in Gaza, and the release of all hostages.
