I am deeply saddened by the terrible shipwreck off the coast of Calabria.

The resulting loss of life of innocent migrants is a tragedy.

All together, we must redouble our efforts on the Pact on Migration & Asylum and on the Action Plan on the Central Mediterranean.

I welcome the formal adoption of our 10th sanctions package against Russia.
 
We now have the most far-reaching sanctions ever - depleting Russia's war arsenal and biting deep into its economy.
 
We are also turning up the pressure on those trying to circumvent our sanctions.
RT @vonderleyen: For almost a year, Russia’s war of aggression has been sowing death and destruction.

We are making Russia pay.

Today, we are turning up the pressure with a 10th package of …

🇪🇺🇪🇪 Thank you @kajakallas for inviting me here on such a special day.
 
The 105th anniversary of Estonia's independence, which resonates with one year of heroic Ukrainian resistance.
 
Estonia's generosity towards Ukraine has been stellar.

Estonia declared its sovereignty in 1918 - but your determination to remain free was put to the test time and again after that.
 
Just as Estonia stands proudly today as a free and independent state, Ukraine will prevail.

Ukrainians are fighting for their right to choose their future.

And they have already chosen.
 
They have chosen the European Union.
 
In these dark times, their hearts are warmed by the confidence that Ukraine will join the EU one day.

We will turn to joint procurement to deliver urgent military supplies for Ukraine, such as 155mm ammunition.
 
We are also working with our defence industry to ramp up the production of equipment and ammunition.

Ukraine is a testament to the bravery of a nation which will never relent in its quest for freedom.

Ukraine will prevail because Ukrainians will neither flinch nor step back.

And because Europe and its partners and allies will stand firm.

One year of brutal Russian aggression.
One year of heroic Ukrainian resistance.
One year of European solidarity.

We are with you, for as long as it takes.

141 countries called for the restoration of Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

One year on, the international community stands strong with Ukraine.

The call is clear: Russia must end its war of aggression.

Tonight our buildings adorn the colours of Ukraine.

We honour the bravery of the Ukrainian people.

The memory of the fallen.

The fortitude of an entire country in resistance.

Let this illumination be a reminder that together we can overcome even the darkest of times.

The spirit and resolve of our Ukrainian friends are an inspiration to us all.

Today we proudly raise their flag in front of the @EU_Commission

One day Ukraine will join our European family.

One day this flag will fly high everyday in Brussels, where it rightfully belongs.

We have been with you in this existential fight from the beginning.

Ukraine has become the centre of our continent.

The place where our values are upheld, where our freedom is defended, where the future of Europe is written.

Слава Україні.

Young people in Ukraine share the same desires as all young Europeans like you, I told students at @unipa_it

This is why they wrapped themselves in 🇪🇺 flags and took to the streets in 2014.

We must stand with them, unwaveringly.

I start my visit to Sicily in Capaci, honouring the memory of Giovanni Falcone, Francesca Morvillo and all victims of mafia.

Falcone once said: “A man may pass away, ideas live on and are carried on by other people”

Indeed his values live on in young generations.

Inizio la mia visita della Sicilia a Capaci, per onorare Giovanni Falcone, Francesca Morvillo e tutte le vittime di mafia.

Falcone disse: Gli uomini passano, le idee restano e camminano sulle gambe di altri uomini.

Oggi una nuova generazione porta avanti le sue idee.
