🔸 Energy security To keep the lights on, we’ve delivered 11278 power generators and relocated an entire thermal power plant to Ukraine. Our goal is to repair, connect, and stabilise the energy grid.

Four years of extraordinary courage. 🇺🇦 Ukraine’s fight for freedom is the fight for our shared European values. The EU stands united in its unwavering support against Russia's war of aggression. We are with you for as long as it takes. #StandWithUkraine

Today marks four years since the start of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine. From restoring critical infrastructure and reconnecting rail links to reopening schools and strengthening essential services, rebuilding is helping communities move forward, day by day ⤵️

🇺🇦🇪🇺 Four years today. Russia has relentlessly, systematically and strategically destroyed Ukraine's energy infrastructure. 🇺🇦Today in Kyiv, the EU announced it will work with Ukraine on a new energy security and preparedness plan. Full joint statement here: ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

🇪🇺 Heads up! All you need to know about this year's State of the EU speech! List of new initiatives and priorities are all here ⬇️ #SotEU

Full solidarity with Poland. 🇵🇱🇪🇺

Climate change is making each summer harsher and more dangerous. We are radically stepping up climate resilience efforts, and we also need tools to respond when disaster strikes. This is why we will propose a new European firefighting hub. We know the difference EU cooperation makes.

Russia should pay for the war it started. To finance Ukraine’s war effort, we support a new solution: a Reparations Loan on the basis of Russian assets – the cash balances associated to these assets.

Europe’s independence is about protecting our freedoms. And free press is the backbone of democracy. We will launch a Media Resilience Programme to support journalism and media literacy. And keep backing independent and local media - because corruption happens in the dark.

This is a budget for the realities of today, as well as the challenges of tomorrow. Today we present our proposal. Now we continue the work, with the European Parliament, Member States, with citizens and businesses. → europa.eu/!RtrmHr
