Der DMA ist wichtig für einen fairen digitalen Binnenmarkt. Dazu gehört, unsere Regeln auch gegen ausländische Big-Tech-Unternehmen durchzusetzen - das ist kein Angriff auf andere Staaten, sondern Konsequenz. Kommission muss das stringent mittragen! 👉🏻 Mein Zitat: table.media/europe/news/...

Endlich! Das Parlament hat mit großer Mehrheit für „Nur Ja heißt Ja“ gestimmt. Vergewaltigung soll europaweit einheitlich über freiwillige Zustimmung definiert werden. Nein heißt Nein genügt nicht - sexuelle Handlungen brauchen klare Zustimmung. Immer. #onlyyesmeansyes

Rechter bevestigt: de quasi-permanente grenscontroles zijn in strijd met Schengen regels. Dat was glashelder, maar regeringen hebben Teumpiaans maling aan regels en rechters, de @ec.europa.eu weigert de wetten en verdragen te handhaven, en @europarl.europa.eu verzaakt zijn toezichtsplicht

The war in Iran has increased the cost of fossil fuels by 22 billion euros in the EU! @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu is right to call for a faster transition. The good news is that, according to the IEA, solar energy has become the most important source of global energy growth! #EUGreenDeal
