Record turnout shows the democratic spirit of the Hungarian people. They have spoken—and their will is clear. I look forward to working closely with Péter Magyar to make Europe stronger and more prosperous.

Hungary has chosen Europe. Europe has always chosen Hungary. A country reclaims its European path. The Union grows stronger.

Freedom of speech is the foundation of our strong and vibrant European democracy. We are proud of it. We will protect it. Because the @ec.europa.eu is the guardian of our values.

We strongly condemn the U.S. decision to impose travel restrictions on five European individuals, including former Commissioner Thierry Breton. Link to full statement: link.europa.eu/NtMX4K

Arctic security remains a key priority for the European Union, and one in which we seek to work with allies and partners. Territorial integrity and sovereignty are fundamental principles of international law.

Tässä Venäjän kaasun tuonnin kiellon äänestystulos vielä parlamenttiryhmittäin. Vastustajia oli vain äärioikeistossa ja noin puolet vasemmistoryhmästä (etelä- ja keski-Euroopasta). Kaikki suomalaiset mepit äänestivät kiellon puolesta. Kiitos heille tuesta!

Today’s 120 million euro fine against X under the Digital Services Act (DSA) will be spun as a decision against “free speech.” It’s not. (1/7) #digitalservicesact #dsa #dsa ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

Are you just as annoyed as we are on the right wing madness trying to ban our #veggieburgers? (And hiding the fact that they want farmers to be paid less?) Here is exactly how Members of the European Parliament voted on it yesterday 👇

What is happening in Gaza has shaken the conscience of the world. Man-made famine can never be a weapon of war. This must stop. EU aid to Gaza far outweighs that of any other partner. But of course, Europe needs to do more. Here are measures for a way forward ↓

1/ 📢 Today, the Commission concluded that Google abused its dominant position in the display advertising technology industry. Digital advertising funds much of the online free content and services we rely on today. Google controls many of the tools that make this industry work 💻 📱

The Israeli government’s decision to further extend its military operation in Gaza must be reconsidered. At the same time, there must be the release of all hostages, who are being held in inhumane conditions.

No shame. No future.

The EU doesn’t need a deal with Trump https://on.ft.com/470LUaD | opinion

I call on the Hungarian authorities to allow the Budapest Pride to go ahead. Without fear of any criminal or administrative sanctions against the organisers or participants. To the LGBTIQ+ community in Hungary and beyond: I will always be your ally.

Today the E.U. General Court delivered its judgment in a case brought by The New York Times to access text messages between the president of the E.U. Commission and the C.E.O. of Pfizer to negotiate a multibillion euro deal for Covid vaccines.

Kätevästi Trumpin tullien laskentakaavan vakiot ovat 4 * 0,25 = 1. Loppu sitten onkin vain tavarakaupan alijäämä jaettuna tuonnilla Yhdysvaltoihin.

EPP, S&D, Renew & Greens/EFA leaders reached a cooperation agreement on the #Omnibus package. Our groups want to ensure stability for EU Parliament as an institution and predictability for companies. Our groups commit to work constructively throughout all steps of negotiation process.

Equality is non-negotiable. ❤️️🧡💛💚💙💜 Too many LGBTIQ+ people still face discrimination, harassment, and violence.

2. There's the silly: after being mocked for setting tariffs to trade deficit / exports, the White House retorted that they didn't do that at all – they used this fancy formula. 

How convenient that the two fitted parameters, ε=4 and φ=0.25 multiply to 1, leaving...yes, trade deficit / exports.

And this, my friends, is the logic behind the new tariff policy of the United States of America. Zero trade balance with *each* trading partner.

I would like to speak to my fellow Europeans ↓

The universal tariffs announced by the US are a major blow to businesses and consumers worldwide. Europe is prepared to respond. We'll always protect our interests and values. We're also ready to engage. And to go from confrontation to negotiation. Full statement → europa.eu/!mHxFMh

Finland's last coal-fired power and heat plant in active production will shut down permanently on Tuesday, enabling Helsinki energy group Helen to cut its emissions and put an end to rising energy costs for its customers, its chief executive said reut.rs/4iSVZd3

And never voluntarily give up your rights. Silence is consent. #HoldTheLine

We regret the unjustified US 25% tariff on steel and aluminium imports. The EU will protect its consumers and businesses. We are launching swift, proportionate countermeasures worth up to €26 billion, matching the economic impact of the US tariffs. More about our response ↓ europa.eu/!rcMqWy

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Ukraina-päätöslauselmaa vastaan äänesti YK:ssa kourallinen maita. Niihin kuuluivat Venäjä, Valko-Venäjä, Pohjois-Korea - ja USA. Edes Iran ei ollut mukana. Reagan kääntyisi haudassaan.

Europe must step up its security – no longer can we rely fully on the US to defend our values & Ukraine’s sovereignty. Ukraine’s security is Europe’s security. No negotiations about Ukraine or European security without the EU. @terryreintke.bsky.social, @baseickhout.bsky.social & other leaders⤵️

"EU:n yhteisen turvallisuus- ja puolustuspolitiikan tavoitteena tulee olla sekä kyky puolustaa unionin aluetta sotilaallisesti että edistää rauhaa ja turvallisuutta lähialueilla." Kuka sanoo näin? No @vihreat.fi Eurooppaohjelma! 🧵/1

The audacity of Vance scolding Europe for having annulled Romanian election results due to Russian interference, representing a president who violently physically attacked the US system of governance and refused to acknowledge his defeat, still claiming the elections was stolen, is simply disgusting

We shouldn't take anything off the table before the negotiations have even started. It is clear that any deal behind our backs will not work. You need the Europeans, you need the Ukrainians. Extracts from my doorstep ahead of NATO Defence Ministers meeting ↓

Ukraine's independence and territorial integrity are unconditional. Our priority must now be strengthening Ukraine and providing robust security guarantees. In any negotiation, Europe must have a central role. Our Weimar+ statement ↓

Komissiolta lupaavia esityksiä kiinalaisten krääsäkauppojen epäreilun kilpailuedun kaventamiseksi. Suomen tulee kiirehtiä näitä toimia EU:ssa.

”Jos kuullaan riippumattomia asiantuntijoita ja viis veisataan heidän oikeudellisista näkemyksistään vetoamalla kansalliseen turvallisuuteen, voidaan ihan perustellusti sanoa, että perustuslakivaliokunta on astunut ulos valtiosääntöoikeudellisesta tehtävästään ja siirtynyt politikoinnin puolelle”

The incident involving undersea cables in the Baltic Sea is the latest in a series of suspected attacks on critical infrastructure. We commend the Finnish authorities for their swift action in boarding the suspected vessel. My joint statement → europa.eu/!k6cCfB (1/3)

Kertoo paljon Suomen uudistumiskyvystä, että edes turkistarhauksen tukia ei pystytä lopettamaan, koska ennenkin on tuettu. "Tällä hetkellä turkistarhaus muodostaa pandemiauhan vuoksi liian suuren riskin ihmisten hengelle ja terveydelle" www.hs.fi/suomi/art-20...

#CDU/#CSU im Europaparlament reißen die Brandmauer ein + bauen aus den Trümmern eine Brücke nach Rechtsaußen. Warum? EU-Waldschutzgesetz soll zum zahnlosen Tiger werden, #GreenDeal untergraben. Um #Klimaschutz zu attackieren, paktiert man mit den Demokratiefeinden. Krass.
