I welcome the result of yesterday’s Ministerial on the Maritime Corridor to Gaza.
The corridor must be part of a sustained effort to increase the flow of aid to Gaza through all routes, including expanded land routes.
A minimum of 500 trucks/day or equivalent is needed now.

Good call with Emir of Qatar

I welcomed that Qatar joins the
Maritime Corridor to provide crucial humanitarian aid to Gaza.
We also exchanged on the effort to secure the release of hostages and establish a much-needed humanitarian pause.

I welcome the
https://nitter.privacydev.net/Europarl_EN
vote on the AI Act.
Europe’s pioneering framework for innovative AI, with clear guardrails.
This will benefit Europe’s fantastic pool of talents.
And set a blueprint for trustworthy AI throughout the world.

Since we granted candidate status, Bosnia and Herzegovina has taken impressive steps towards us.
Today the College will decide to recommend to the Council to open accession negotiations with BiH.
Their future lies in our Union.

The situation in Gaza has come to a tipping point.
All routes must be used to reach people in need.
This is where the Cyprus maritime corridor comes into play.
The EU will have a coordination team in Cyprus and will finance and steer the flow of goods.

Thank you President
https://nitter.privacydev.net/christodulides
for Cyprus’ leadership in setting up the humanitarian maritime corridor to Gaza.
The departure of the first ship is a sign of hope. We will work hard together for many more ships to follow.
We will do everything in our power for aid to reach Palestinians.

I welcome the Council’s agreement on new rights for platform workers.
Our digital economy is evolving; the rights of workers have to evolve too.
Platform workers will enjoy better protection &amp; working conditions.
Platforms will still be able to thrive and innovate.
A win-win.

Today we commemorate the 2004 terrorist attacks in Madrid.
We honor the lives lost, the courage of survivors and the resilience of a nation.
The memory of victims of terrorism everywhere inspires us to act and unite.
To prevent and combat terror in Europe and abroad

I welcome Cyprus’ ambition to play a constructive role in the Day After.
The Amalthea initiative in itself is a powerful symbol of hope for the future.
It can serve for both reconstruction and trade in the medium to long term↓

[2024-03-08 13:11 UTC]

Europe is financing a major humanitarian aid effort for Palestinians.
€250 million euros this year alone.
But the key challenge is getting this aid to people in Gaza.
This is why we’re launching the Cyprus Maritime Corridor, with the US and UAE ↓

R to @vonderleyen: Europe has delivered for gender equality.

For pay transparency, more women on boards and freedom from violence.

But the path to full equality is still long.

It requires attention and commitment every day.

And from every one of us ↓

I'm grateful to you, President
https://nitter.privacydev.net/Christodulides

The maritime corridor to deliver more aid to Gaza via sea.
Innocent civilians in Palestine need all our help.

A more sovereign Europe, in particular on defence, is vital to strengthening NATO.
So I am pleased that Sweden is becoming a NATO member.
And I congratulate Sweden under the leadership of
https://nitter.privacydev.net/SwedishPM
Kristersson on this historic step for this country and our common security.

We support your country on its way to our Union.

Very good discussion with
https://nitter.privacydev.net/AndrejPlenkovic
on enlargement, ahead of the March European Council.
In particular, we discussed about Bosnia and Herzegovina's progress, following our visit to Sarajevo.

[2024-03-06 16:04 UTC]

I strongly condemn the vile attack on Odesa by Russia during
https://nitter.privacydev.net/ZelenskyyUa
and
https://nitter.privacydev.net/kmitsotakis
's visit.
No one is intimidated by this new attempt at terror - certainly not the two leaders on the ground nor the brave people of Ukraine.
More than ever, we stand by Ukraine.

[2024-03-06 15:35 UTC]

Excellent meeting with
https://nitter.privacydev.net/KlausIohannis

I welcome Romania's strong commitment to European prosperity and security.
Also want to thank Romania for its constant and unwavering support to Ukraine and Moldova.
