Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen@respublicae.eu

🇮🇪 In Dublin today. Very happy to meet @MichealMartinTD.

Thank you for the great cooperation over the past 2.5 years - quite eventful years, too.

In difficult times, you always remained true to our European values.

Go raibh míle maith agat.

Russia must pay for its horrific crimes.

We will work with the ICC and help set up a specialised court to try Russia’s crimes.

With our partners, we will make sure that Russia pays for the devastation it caused, with the frozen funds of oligarchs and assets of its central bank

Our €150 billion #GlobalGateway Plan for Africa is delivering.

Solar and hydro power projects.

Interconnectors.

Submarine cables to digitally connect our continents.

Key transport corridors.

And of course, our vaccine initiative.

There is much more to come.

The EU is mobilising over €4.5 billion for food security and stronger food systems in Africa until 2024.

We also work together on making fertilisers accessible and affordable.

So today we agreed to launch a joint task-force on fertilisers.

Glad to welcome @AUC_MoussaFaki and the @_AfricanUnion at the @EU_Commission today.

We live through bitter times. So Africa and Europe need to work even closer together.

We are partners in times of crisis and partners for the future.

I welcome the launch of the 🇪🇺🇰🇷 Digital Partnership.

It is crucial to work with partners who share our democratic values.

We will take forward work on such technologies as semiconductors, AI or quantum and HPC.

90 years after the Holodomor, our thoughts are with Ukraine as it mourns and remembers, on this day when we came together to fight hunger around the world with President @ZelenskyyUa’s #GrainfromUkraine initiative.

This is on top of the 28 million of tons of agri products shipped via the EU’s Solidarity Lanes and the Black Sea Grain Initiative.

Europe is boosting the capacities of the Solidarity Lanes to keep providing access to food to our partners worldwide.

90 years after the Holodomor, the Kremlin is again using food as a weapon.

We stand with Ukraine to guarantee global food security.

Under President @ZelenskyyUa's Grain from Ukraine initiative, the @EU_Commission will pay to ship 40,000 tons of Ukrainian grain via two boats.

During my phone call with @ZelenskyyUa today, I expressed EU solidarity with Ukraine in the face of Russia’s criminal attacks on civilian infrastructure.

@EU_Commission is stepping up support, including with partners, to support the restoration of power and heat in Ukraine.

The day we put an end to indifference and impunity.
 
The day all women and girls can live their lives free of fear.
 
Safe from violence.
 
That’s the day we will live in a truly equal world.

It is good to see and listen to our Nordic friends.

We need your expertise, now more than ever, to encourage sustainable forestry and lead the next revolution in architecture.

As winter grips Europe, my thoughts are with our Ukrainian friends.

Women, men, children are freezing in the dark because of Putin’s deliberate & barbaric targeting of the country’s civilian infrastructure. The sole purpose is to terrorise civilians.

These acts are war crimes.

We want buildings and cities that, instead of emitting, absorb carbon.

So let's decarbonise the EU's building stock with bio-based material.

Grateful for the contribution of 🇫🇮🇪🇪🇸🇪 to the #NewEuropeanBauhaus Academy for sustainable construction. https://nitter.eu/i/broadcasts/1rmxPkVORBgJN

Healthy forests are our strongest allies against climate change & biodiversity loss.

They are also a source of building materials, and a driver for jobs and growth.

We need to carefully manage our forests.

This is what brings us to Haltia 🇫🇮 today ↓ https://nitter.eu/i/broadcasts/1ypKddeNerYKW

After 10 years since the @EU_Commission proposal, we will now have an EU law for gender equality on company boards.

The glass ceiling preventing women from accessing top positions in companies has been shattered.

This is a truly historic and moving moment.
