Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen@respublicae.eu

Very good phone call with UK PM @RishiSunak

🇪🇺🇬🇧 are strategic partners.

Looking forward to working on crucial issues such as Russia’s war on Ukraine and climate change.

And on finding joint solutions under the Protocol on IE/NI that will provide stability and predictability.

The Frontex agreement we are signing today is important.

Not just because it strengthens our cooperation on migration.

But because it is translated in the Macedonian language.

On equal footing with all 24 EU languages.

The Macedonian language is your language.

🇲🇰 Договорот со Фронтекс што го потпишуваме денес е важен.

Не само поради тоа што ја зајакнува нашата соработка во полето на миграција.

Туку поради тоа што е преведен на македонски јазик.

На исто рамниште со сите 24 јазици на ЕУ.

The EU is responding to the energy crisis with unity and solidarity.

It means unity and solidarity with North Macedonia as well.

We are providing 🇲🇰 with €80 million in immediate budget support and also with long-term investments in your energy system. https://nitter.eu/i/broadcasts/1nAJErNEnngxL

Glad to start my visit of the Western Balkans in North Macedonia dear @DKovachevski

The people of North Macedonia are committed to EU values.

The negotiations process is gaining momentum.

All political forces united can deliver, for the benefit of citizens.

Now is the time.

Glad to meet 🇷🇴 PM @NicolaeCiuca

We discussed Romania’s efforts to join Schengen, which @EU_Commission fully supports

We also talked about the rollout of #NextGenEU investments

And I thanked 🇷🇴 for its solidarity with Moldova in the energy crisis

This is the European way.

Good meeting with @DenysShmyhal

🇪🇺 will support Ukraine’s relief, rehabilitation and reconstruction.

With our global partners we’ll stand shoulder to shoulder to meet the country’s urgent needs

We are working on an international coordination platform to go live by end of year

We need fast rehabilitation to ensure that life can continue in Ukraine.

We have already started repairing destroyed schools with €100 million and supplying 200 schools buses.

We also provide shelter items ahead of the winter, to give a roof to those who lost everything.

Russia is targeting civilian infrastructure, in particular energy.

So we are working with Ukraine to repair this infrastructure now with €1 billion in emergency assistance.

We have also provided 400 power generators so far, and that’s not all ↓

We need all hands on deck for the reconstruction.

International institutions. Private sector. Civil society.

It’s time for the platform to start working.

Ukrainians need relief for their daily survival.

I’ll work with EU Members States so that our Union can support Ukraine with liquidity in 2023.

We can never match the sacrifices Ukrainians are making every day.

But we can stand with them and provide what they need – for relief, fast rehabilitation and reconstruction.

This is why we are gathered here today at the #RecoveryOfUkraine conference ↓

Thank you @MrKRudd for your deep and thought-provoking insights into the Chinese policies and strategies.

🇪🇺 needs to adapt to an assertive China and work with its international partners to preserve and promote the open and rules-based international order.
