I spoke with President @RTErdogan on the phone to convey my deepest condolences to the people of Türkiye for the catastrophic loss of life and destruction caused by the devastating earthquake, and discuss additional support.

Europe is by your side.

Local responders in Türkiye and Syria are working tirelessly to save lives.

We are at their side with all possible humanitarian, civil protection and financial aid.

More is coming.

Early March, @SwedishPM and I will convene a Donors’ Conference to mobilise more relief funding

On migration, the lesson is clear: we need to act together.

We agreed on concrete and operational steps forward along two tracks:

First, keeping the pace on the Pact on Migration and Asylum. I count on the 🇸🇪🇪🇸 presidencies.

And 4 types of priority measures we can take now ↓

Our clean tech industry is innovative and competitive.

Now it’s about keeping our head start.

I presented our Green Deal Industrial Plan combining conducive rules, funding, skills and an active trade policy

Leaders gave green light so we’ll table proposals by the March EUCO

Maintaining our industrial competitiveness globally.

Managing migration as a Union.

Two major challenges that require common action.

Glad we could agree on concrete steps forward tonight at EUCO ↓

Russia must pay for the destruction caused and blood spilt.

Our 10th package of sanctions will further weaken Russia’s war machine.

And we have the will to hold Russia accountable for its crimes, including the crime of aggression.

Your fight is a fight for independence, for democracy, and for a free Europe.

We can never match your sacrifices.

But we can stand up for you, and we have.

With €67 billion of support mobilised for Ukraine and Ukrainians over the past year.

We are now racing against the clock to save lives together.

Soon we will provide relief aid, together.

Türkiye and Syria can count on the EU.

@SwedishPM and I will host a Donors' Conference early March in Brussels.

Let’s mobilise funds globally for the affected communities.

Good news for Czechia!

With the progress made in reforms and investments, Czechia can receive a first #NextGenerationEU payment worth €928 million.

Toto je pouze začátek, velké gratulace České republice a jen tak dál.

Moldova can keep on counting on the EU, I told PM @natgavrilita

We proposed €145 million in new funding just last week and continue to support your economy and energy security.

As 🇲🇩 progresses on its EU reform path, we are now working to get you closer to our Single Market.

North Macedonia continues to be affected by the economic shockwaves of Russia's brutal war.

Today we propose €100 million in macro-financial assistance.

It will support the country's economic needs, in the short-term, and structural reforms, to accompany 🇲🇰 on its EU path.

We stand in full solidarity with the people of Türkiye and Syria after the deadly earthquake that hit this morning.

We must continue to deprive Russia of the means to wage war against Ukraine. EU’s import ban on Russian petroleum products comes into force on Sunday.

With the G7 we are putting price caps on these products, cutting Russia’s revenue while ensuring stable global energy markets.

Ukraine is taking important steps on its path to the EU, while fighting an aggressor.

I know that they will keep the pace.
 
Because Ukrainians are fighting for a democratic future and the freedom of their children.

Our 9 packages of sanctions are biting, and a 10th one is on its way.

With our partners, we must deny Russia the means to kill Ukrainian civilians and destroy homes and offices.

New measures will hit the trade and technology that supports Russia’s war machine.

Ukraine is a true inspiration for Europe.

We will support your fast recovery and your reconstruction.

Together, we are bringing light to Ukraine!

Ukrainians can exchange their old bulbs at the post office for energy-efficient LED bulbs.
 
The EU is gladly providing 35 million of them.
 
Every kW of energy saved is precious to counter Russia's energy war.
