Heartfelt solidarity with all affected by the devastating floods in Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia.
My thoughts are with the victims and their families.
Thank you to all those helping for their tireless work. The EU stands ready to support.

It has been 10 years since Russia began its aggression against Ukraine.
It is clear: Crimea and Sevastopol are Ukraine.
The EU will always support the territorial integrity of Ukraine.

It was a pleasure meeting
https://nitter.privacydev.net/PetteriOrpo
.
We discussed the findings of the Draghi report, the competitiveness orientations of our Union and a clean economy we can all thrive in.
We also discussed Europe's defence and civilian preparedness and our staunch support to Ukraine.

[2024-09-10 09:13 UTC]

Dear Mario Draghi, a year ago, I asked you to prepare a report on the future of Europe’s competitiveness.
No one was better placed than you to take up this challenge.
Now, we are eager to listen to your views ↓

Russia is relentlessly targeting Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.
Temperatures will soon go down, so we are stepping up our humanitarian aid to Ukrainians in need.
With a new €40 million package for repair works, electricity, heating and shelter.

Europe’s AI Act is going global.
I welcome today’s signature of the Council of Europe Framework Convention on AI.
In line with our AI Act, it provides a common approach for trustworthy, innovative AI compatible with democratic values.
The EU will continue to champion innovation at the service of people.

Grateful to the Strategic Dialogue & Chair Prof. Strohschneider.
For their vision and concrete recommendations for an agriculture that works with and for nature.
And that promotes a competitive European food value chain.
Let's keep that positive spirit alive.

[2024-09-04 10:37 UTC]

The work of the Strategic Dialogue on Agriculture shows that we can overcome polarisation, create trust and find common solutions.
It’s a success in itself.
The recommendations will now feed into a Vision for Agriculture and Food ↓

The EU is in the process of re-inventing itself.
In an age of geostrategic rivalries, a larger EU gives us a stronger voice in the world.
The integration of the Western Balkans in the EU is critical for this.

We are tabling €430 million from the EU Solidarity Fund to help Slovenia recover, repair and rebuild.
Dear Robert Golob, we will continue our excellent cooperation and work together to make the best use of these funds.

[2024-09-02 09:27 UTC]

It is so moving to be back in Črna, a year after the devastating floods that struck Slovenia in its heart.
Reconstruction is ongoing - and hope is back.
The EU is with you for the long haul.

Montenegro has made good progress on its accession path.
A goal all political forces in the country must rally behind.
In parallel, let’s bring Montenegro closer to the EU with reforms & investments.
This is what our Growth Plan is for.

The second half of the decade will be high-risk.
We Europeans must be on guard.
We must think about our Union as, intrinsically, a security project.

On my way to the
https://nitter.privacydev.net/GLOBSEC
conference in Prague.
Central Europe is at the heart of Europe, geographically.
It is also central to the future of the EU, strategically and politically.
So it’s the right place to discuss the security challenges and choices that Europe faces.
