"We reject the idea pushed by the rightwing parties that competitiveness justifies low wages and unsafe workplaces. True competitiveness comes with dignity, fair pay, and safety,” says our MEP Benedetta Scuderi. www.greens-efa.eu/en/article/p...

"Europe will only be free when we are fossil free." - Greens/EFA co-president @baseickhout.bsky.social We need an independent Europe, free from reliance on foreign fossil oligarchs and autocrats. Yet instead of backing green innovation, leaders push for deregulation. Exactly what Trump wants.

🚨Breaking news! The Commission has decided that TIkTok is too addictive and in breach with our techrules #DSA. After years of fighting, the EU is finally drawing a line: Tiktok has to turn off their addictive tricks. The people should be in control of their own time and attention, not Big Tech.

Yesterday, far-right groups and the Heritage Foundation held an event against LBGTQI+ rights in the European Parliament. Among the speakers was Ugandan MP Lucy Akello who helped pass a law on the death penalty for gay people in Uganda. Silence was not an option. So we protested. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Trump’s threats to cripple Cuba’s energy supply will only lead to further instability and pain for the Cuban people. We condemn his blatant coercion and bullying tactics toward yet another nation. We must stand united for a rule-based international order, sovereignty and dialogue.

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard will be listed as what it is: a terror organisation. It is a victory for the Iranian people and all those who oppose tyranny. Their fight for freedom is also our responsibility. We will not be silent.

NIE WIEDER heißt erinnern. NIE WIEDER heißt zuhören. NIE WIEDER heißt hinschauen. NIE WIEDER heißt Haltung zeigen. NIE WIEDER heißt jeden Tag. NIE WIEDER heißt jetzt.

Wow, we are already over 1️⃣0️⃣,0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ signatures for our petition to stop @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu handing over our personal data to Big Tech. It's incredible how many people care about our online freedom! Celebrate with us and share with your friends ➡️ greens.eu/mydata-mycho...

The death of Alex Pretti at the hands of US federal agents is unbearable. But it did not happen by accident. This is the result of Trump’s policies and rhetoric. My heart is with the people of Minneapolis as they mourn, resist, and demand accountability. This must end.

Any decision to freeze or resume the EU–US trade talks cannot be made unilaterally. The President of the European Parliament represents the entire House - the will of democratic groups must be respected. Now is the time for de-escalation and to stand united in our respect for our institutions.

While Big Tech and their greedy AI systems are putting our democracy at risk, it would be very unwise to lower the European protection of personal data. 🤯 Then why the hell is @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu proposing it? We need to stop this absurd plan. Sign up and join the fight. 👇

Trump wants to destroy a strong and united Europe. Against chaos, we defend a rules-based international order. Against egoism, we choose cooperation based on mutual respect. Against brute power politics, we stand united in defence of our values. This is the European way.

Bullying doesn’t create security. Greenland is an ally, not an asset. Europe stands together against Trump’s threats. 📽 Greens/EFA MEP Sergey Lagodinsky.

🥵 3 years in a row of +1.5°C. 📢 We will never stop saying it: we need climate action now. ❌ We need to phase out fossil fuels. ☀️ We need 90% renewable energy by 2040 (at least). 🏡 We need to renovate houses and buildings to adapt them to the current situation.

It's a promising day for workers in Europe 💪 The European Parliament adopted my report calling for better anticipation of industrial change. We need a legal framework for job security and competitiveness - an answer to Chinese subsidies and American protectionism. 1/4

As the #WorldEconomicForum started in #Davos, #Oxfam warns of the ever-growing wealth inequality between billionaires and the rest of humanity, in a new report. Deregulation and constant blockade of fair corporate taxation has only made the richest richer. Let's tax billionaires their fair share!

Greenland is not for sale. You stop a bully only by standing firm and showing strength. The EU should stand up to Trump’s threats, trigger the Anti-Coercion Instrument and target US Big Tech and its enormous profits in the EU. Unity is our strength. www.greens-efa.eu/en/article/p...

La tragèdia ferroviària de Còrdova ens deixa sense paraules. Tot el meu condol a les famílies de les víctimes i desitjo una prompta recuperació a tots els ferits. I, com sempre, gràcies a tots els treballadors que estan a primera línia per la seva assistència als passatgers.

Our thoughts are with the families of the victims from the train crash in Adamuz, Spain yesterday, as well as everyone injured. Thank you to the emergency service workers for their invaluable work. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Crucial day for Europe today. Trump's threat with tariffs over Greenland, hit all 27 member states. A united response is crucial, especially looking at Meloni. Europe needs to stand for Europe's and Greenland's sovereignty. And any lowering of tariffs to the US is off the table.

Europe stands with Greenland and Denmark. Sovereignty and territorial integrity, as enshrined in the UN Charter, are not for sale. Decisions concerning Denmark and Greenland belong to Denmark and Greenland alone. Our common statement with the leaders of S&D, Renew and the EPP.

"The vote by our governments shows contempt for our farmers and the European democratic process. It is a denial of democracy that will cost taxpayers dearly, as they will have to bear the costs" our @saskiabricmont.bsky.social on the EU-#Mercosur agreement.

Yes, a democratic transition in Venezuela is urgently needed. BUT: Violent air strikes to enforce regime change destroy a rules based world order. They do not offer a lasting path to peace or democracy. But bring more violence. The EU has to clearly react and stand up to defend international law.

In Venezuela wird das Völkerrecht mit Füßen getreten. Maduro ist kein Demokrat. Aber Demokratie entsteht nicht durch Bomben, sondern durch Bürgerbewegungen. Ukraine oder in Venezuela, der neue Imperialismus ist Gift für die Menscheit.

EEUU bombardea Venezuela. Pero no es solo Venezuela: es un ataque a América Latina, a su derecho a decidir y a su dignidad. Y Von der Leyen sigue en silencio mientras Trump está en guerra con la humanidad. Sin unidad, nos destruirá uno a uno.

Enter 2026; where a lawless international order is being determined by the United States. Looking forward to strong condemnations by our European leaders.

Le "Président de la paix" commence l'année en bombardant un pays souverain. Dans le monde de Trump et de ses consorts,"la guerre c'est la paix." Leur impérialisme est un danger pour nous tous. Nous devons unanimement condamner ces attaques, contraires au droit international.

Greens/EFA MEP @marietouss1.bsky.social: "At a time when climate change is accelerating, dismantling deforestation legislation is irresponsible." ❌ Nevertheless the Christian Democrat @eppgroup.bsky.social teamed up with the far right to do so. 👉 www.greens-efa.eu/en/article/p...

Today, we celebrate this victory for reproductive rights in the EU. Tomorrow, we continue the fight to guarantee people's freedoms and fundamental rights. 📽💬 @terryreintke.bsky.social, Greens/EFA Group co-president.

A sad day for human rights. The EPP just teamed up with the far right to pave the way for deportation deals and declare autocratic regimes such as Egypt and Tunisia safe. This is a sham solution, which will lead to mass human rights violations, court cases and a staggering waste of public money.

Europarlamentti hyväksyi juuri äänin 500 puolesta, 120 vastaan ja 32 tyhjää lain Venäjän kaasun tuonnin kiellosta! Historiallinen päivä. Eurooppa ei enää koskaa palaa riippuvuuteen Venäjän fossiileista. Iso saavutus Euroopan energiaitsenäisyyden ja myös Ukrainan tuen puolesta.

Despite massive push back from the right, My Voice My Choice is moving forward and one step closer to safe & accessible abortion in all of the EU. We will continue fighting & supporting @myvoicemychoice.bsky.social until the abortion laws in the EU are harmonised.

Geschafft 🩷 Das Europäische Parlament stellt sich hinter @myvoicemychoice.bsky.social! Jetzt ist @ec.europa.eu am Zug:
 Hört auf die über 1,2 Mio. EU-Bürger:innen, die sicheren und legalen Zugang für Schwangerschaftsabbrüche fordern und richtet den freiwilligen EU-Fonds ein.

Es ist durch! 🩷 Die Initiative von @myvoicemychoice.bsky.social hat’s durch EU Parlament geschafft! 👏👏 Trotz der Versuche der Konservativen und Rechten sie zu stoppen. Wir dürfen nicht hinnehmen, dass Millionen Frauen in Europa keinen sicheren und legalen Zugang zu Schwangerschaftsabbrüchen haben

Victoire! @myvoicemychoice.bsky.social Le Parlement européen vote pour un droit à l'avortement sûr et accessible partout en Europe!

🥳 Historic win in the EU Parliament! Today, a majority of MEPs voted to guarantee the safe and legal access to #abortion for anyone who needs it in the EU. Thanks to My Voice My Choice for the Initiative and all the hard-work. Your body, your voice, your choice. Always.

Greens/EFA Co-President @baseickhout.bsky.social on the @ec.europa.eu plan to abandon the phase out combustion engines: "We're not helping the car industry by creating more uncertainty. Their desperate attempt to undermine the future of e-cars is a huge mistake." ➡️ www.greens-efa.eu/en/article/p...

Greens/EFA MEPs @mariaohisalo.vihreat.fi and @gordanbosanac.bsky.social welcome the first EU Affordable Housing Plan and are ready to get to work. "We will continue to fight against speculation and defend the right to affordable housing for everyone." 👉 www.greens-efa.eu/en/article/p...

I sat down for a podcast on Gen-Z politics and what it means for democracy. We talked about how digital tools can strengthen civic space, and how they are also used to repress it. We also discussed why policymakers need to stay connected to people on the ground, and the role of grassroots networks.

Clauses de sauvegarde agricoles: le Parlement #UE a adopté mon amendement établissant une clause miroir pr les importations agricoles! C’est parti pr les négociations avec le Conseil, même si l’accord UE-Mercosur reste inacceptable #StopUEMercosur

The @europarl.europa.eu just voted to roll back key sustainability safeguards for companies in the #omnibus. "At its core, this is a political decision to weaken environmental and human rights standards, and it will harm both people and the planet", comments our MEP @kiramph.bsky.social.

Mehdi Kessaci’s murder shows what happens when drug trafficking is ignored for too long. His death must be a turning-point for the EU to start tackling narco-crime at its roots, as a system; invest in prevention, justice, public services and cooperation across the Union. @marietouss1.bsky.social

💔 Our hearts go out to everyone affected by the Bondi Beach shooting. We strongly condemn this act of Antisemitic violence. Europe stands up for diversity and respect. Jewish life is an essential part of that. We are at your side.

Green MPs from across the EU stand with the Mayor of #Budapest. He defended equality, diversity & #freedom. Now the police wants to prosecute him. We support Karacsony Gergely & Pride organisers facing charges for protecting the right to assemble. We’ll keep defending freedom in Europe, together.

Our Fight. Our Planet. Our Future. ✊🌍 10 years after the signature of the Climate Paris Agreement, the climate crisis is still escalating. Yet far-right & conservative forces try to tear down climate protections and block progress. Political courage is needed now. No excuses. No delay. 💚

➡️Step 1: #Taliban say only women may work with Afghan women & girls. ➡️Step 2: Taliban block female #UN staff from entering UN offices. ➡️Step 3: Guess what? #UN can’t deliver aid since people who deliver are shut out. ➡️Step 4: This is Gender Apartheid in practice. 1/4

Thousands of companies will no longer have to check for child labour and exploitation in their supply chains. By gutting the due diligence law, the far right and Christian Democrats abandon workers and affected communities. #DueDiligence www.groen.be/child_labour...
