Free at last! We welcome the long overdue release of the remaining Israeli hostages. EU must work to play a strong role in rebuilding Gaza, after too much suffering. The only solution is a two state solution!

Next week is going to be a busy week in the European Parliament. Mark your agendas! 📌Protection of children online 📌EU Disability Employment & Skills Guarantee 📌EU rules on business ethics and disclosure 📌Transparency obligations 📌 Air passenger rights 👇hhttps://tinyurl.com/3pcdax2x

Congratulations to @mariacorinaya.bsky.social, leader of our liberal sister party Vente Venezuela! A deserved honor for her unwavering fight to promote democracy for the people of Venezuela. Her stand against autocracy is an inspiration to all who value freedom. Liberals will keep fighting!

Fragmented EU rules are costing us up to €500 billion/year! 🤯 🚫 Fragmented rules mean: 🔵Higher prices for consumers 🛒 🔵Fewer choices for services 💻 🔵Less innovation for businesses 🚀 For growth, competitiveness and stronger 🇪🇺, we must complete the Single Market

Today, we mourn the 2 year anniversary of Hamas' vile terrorist attacks on Israel. The hostages still being held by Hamas must be released. Peace & a two state solution cannot be built on further bloodshed. The killing in Gaza must stop.

It is dangerous & baseless to claim that the EU has "decided to go to war", as Orbán has done We are all familiar with this agenda of division! It's time to stop the Russian propaganda and check the facts. Who started the war? Russia did, with an unprovoked invasion of Ukraine

Tallinn calling! 🇪🇪 We are sending one clear message: The time for talk is over. We need urgent action to build a European Defence Union! Follow the press conference with 🇪🇪Prime Minister Kristen Michal, our president @valeriehayer.bsky.social & Urmas Paet www.youtube.com/live/Lzn6om6...

Congratulations to Maia Sandu & the PAS party for their decisive victory in 🇲🇩 legislative elections Moldovans have reaffirmed their European future with strength and determination. Dan Barna 👇 www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-09...

We condemn Russia's interference in Moldovan democracy, including the use of disinformation, cyber-attacks and illicit financing. The 🇲🇩 people should be free to choose their own path without outside interference! @valeriehayer.bsky.social & Dan Barna www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-09...

The imprisonment of Varna’s mayor is alarming proof of democratic backsliding in Bulgaria. We urge the Commission to freeze EU funds until Sofia stops weaponizing institutions against opponents. @valeriehayer.bsky.social @politico.eu 👇 www.politico.eu/article/varn...

Russia is testing us. The recent airspace violation in Estonia shows the Kremlin’s war in Ukraine isn’t going as planned. They want to divert aid from Ukraine and force NATO to look inward. #RenewEurope makes sure we stay united and protected!

The attack on the @d66.nl headquarters in The Hague is a direct assault on democracy. We stand in full solidarity with our Dutch friends. Political violence has no place in the EU. We will always defend our shared values of democracy and the rule of law.

The Rainbow Platform is now part of Renew Europe! 🌈 We're thrilled to officially adopt this vital initiative for diversity and inclusion, making it a core part of our group This is a commitment to championing equality and ensuring every individual feels represented 🤝🇪🇺

Netanyahu must change course or face EU sanctions Renew Europe backs Commission’s proposal but warns it’s not enough, calling for 🔹Aid for civilians 🔹Respect of international law 🔹Release of hostages 🔹Progress towards two states 👇@hildevautmans.bsky.social www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-09...

Renew Europe is pushing to end EU reliance on Russian energy by latest 2027 We must stop financing Putin's war and secure our own energy independence by diversifying our energy mix with renewables. Hungary & Slovakia must join the rest of Europe and stop cosying up with Putin!

🚨 Israel’s invasion of Gaza City marks a disastrous escalation. Israel’s right to self-defence cannot justify indiscriminate military action that brings catastrophic suffering to civilians. Ceasefire now. Aid must flow. A two-state solution is the only path to peace.

EU's unfinished Single Market is costing us! According to the IMF, remaining barriers inside EU are as costly as: 🔹44% tariff on goods 🔹110% tariff on services For growth, competitiveness and stronger 🇪🇺, we must complete the Single Market! 👇 MEP Anna-Maja Henriksson tinyurl.com/55beu66c

Renew Europe welcomes new EU plans on democratic and media resilience However, without an urgent Democracy Shield, promises are not enough — the Commission must act now to protect Europe from attacks on democracy 👇 @nathalieloiseau.bsky.social @hbrandstaetter.bsky.social tinyurl.com/ywtdmfxd

We remember the lives lost on 11 September 🕊️ Together, we can stand strong against terrorism & build a safer & more peaceful world for all. We are committed to a stronger, more secure Europe that defends our shared values of freedom and democracy.

🔴Enough posturing about Gaza. The only way forward is compromise - we ask all political groups to withdraw their amendments to get a resolution. We can’t demand Europe to lead, then block every path to action. #EU #LeadOrStepAside 🧵1/3

Europe will protect its sovereignty at any cost! Last week, a plane carrying von der Leyen, was hit by Russian interference while trying to land in Sofia. Europe is ramping up its resilience by making sure our deterrence systems are up to date & have the investments they need!

Statement by the #RenewEurope Group 👇

Renew Europe calls for continuation of the Just Transition Fund in the next EU budget JTF 2.0 must be stronger, with regional solutions and simpler access, ensuring communities & workers are supported through the transition 👇 @ciaranmulloolymep.bsky.social www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-09...

Europe must be stronger, more united, more sovereign. We call for: ✅ A true EU defense to protect democracy & Ukraine ✅ Implementing the Draghi Report to boost jobs, growth & innovation ✅ End unanimity, empower Parliament & direct election of the European Commission president

We condemn the incursion of Russian, Iranian produced drones into Polish territory, putting the lives of EU citizens at risk. Solidarity with Poland. Russia must be effectively deterred & Europe defended. This violation demands a united response. www.bbc.com/news/live/c2...

Serbian students are our nominees for the #SakharovPrize! Since the tragic Novi Sad railway station accident, these courageous young people have led peaceful protests for a free & democratic 🇷🇸 Their fight reflects the EU’s core principles & inspires beyond Serbia’s borders

We were delighted to welcome Moldovan President, Maia Sandu & Commissioner @martakos.ec.europa.eu to our group. At this decisive moment, we reaffirm our support: accelerate EU accession talks & boost resilience against hybrid threats from Putin's regime!

1 year after the #DraghiReport, we know the direction: ⚡Clean & affordable energy 📈One simple rulebook for all businesses 💶A real Capital Markets Union Europe has the power to lead in innovation & competitiveness. Let’s act now and build the future together.

Renew Europe demands urgent action as Gaza faces catastrophic suffering and famine! @hildevautmans.bsky.social: This famine is not a natural disaster, it is a political act, and Europe must respond with political courage. Read more 👇 www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-09...

❗️Russia’s drone & missile strike on Kyiv, hitting the Cabinet of Ministers building, is another disgraceful attack by Putin! We call for strong sanctions against Putin’s regime. Immediate, decisive action is needed as Russia shows no sign of ending the war. #StandWithUkraine️

The Draghi report is clear: we need to mobilise savings, cut red tape, reduce fragmentation & boost cross-border investment. Europe needs a stronger 🇪🇺 Capital Markets Union. For citizens, it’s about experiencing better services, lower costs, and a stronger economy in daily life.

Strengthening EU laws and rights & making them more accessible to you is our key priority! That's why we're launching a new bold new initiative to create concrete, easy-to-understand tools that will simplify daily life for citizens across Europe. Stay Tuned!

The EU economy keeps falling behind & not enough has been done over the past year! João Cotrim Figueiredo has made it clear that the #Draghi report should be the blueprint for the Commission’s activities. We need to act now to make sure we stay competitive! @financialtimes.com 👇 on.ft.com/47pLISM

Renew Europe rejects Trump’s threats on digital sovereignty DSA & DMA are non-discriminatory and here to stay. 🇪🇺’s laws are not made under foreign pressure @valeriehayer.bsky.social @sandrogozi.bsky.social @karinkarlsbro.bsky.social @mariepierrev.bsky.social www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-08...

The future of Ukraine & European security cannot be decided by Putin & Trump behind closed doors Ahead of the meeting in Alaska, we make it clear: no decisions can be made without the direct participation & consent of 🇺🇦 & 🇪🇺 www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-08...

End the aid Blockade. Stop the starvation in Gaza.

🇪🇺🇺🇸 #RenewEurope regrets the EU-US trade deal outcome. 
Temporary relief should not come at the cost of strategic weakness and economic imbalance. Europe is an economic giant, let's stop acting like a political dwarf.

#RenewEurope calls for the strongest EU response to Bulgaria’s #ruleoflaw crisis. We’ve initiated a plenary debate in the European Parliament on: “The ongoing assault on democratic institutions and the arrest and detention of Varna’s Mayor.”

Taking European defence seriously means defending our interests and standing firmly with brave #Ukraine 🇺🇦 We welcome the latest round of sanctions against Russia’s war machine. @kajakallas.bsky.social is right: determination is what will make Europe safer. #StandWithUkraine #EUdefence

We welcome the determination of Irish liberal Commissioner Michael McGrath to clamp down on Chinese imports that fall below EU safety laws. Our consumer safety laws, including those protecting children, must be enforced! www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Renew Europe strongly condemns the sentencing of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu to nearly 2 years in prison for criticizing prosecutors. This is yet another blow to democracy & #RuleOfLaw in #Turkey. Erdoğan's crackdown on opposition must end. www.politico.eu/article/turk...

Time for the @eppgroup.bsky.social to better coordinate with its commissioners. 🤷‍♂️

Commission’s MFF proposal marks progress, not finish line We lead the fight for a bold, future-proof budget that delivers for citizens, defends values and strengthens 🇪🇺’s global role @luciayar.bsky.social @valeriehayer.bsky.social @fabiennekeller.bsky.social www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-07...

Concerned by the rule of law backsliding in Bulgaria, Renew MEPs from LIBE will request a fact finding mission in Bulgaria amid warnings of a pattern of political interference & selective justice undermining democracy. www.reneweuropegroup.eu/news/2025-07...

EPP, S&D, Renew and Greens/EFA joint statement on #MFF: Leaders call for an ambitious MFF with increased genuine own resources, with rule of law conditionality, respecting Parliament’s prerogatives, and share concerns with National and Regional plans. We can't do more with less

Democracy only works when everyone follows the same rules. 🗳️ That’s why our MEP @sophiewilmes.bsky.social is proposing a rule of law cycle — a clear, EU-wide roadmap to track democratic standards and enforce consequences when they’re ignored. This is how Renew Europe is protecting democracy! 🇪🇺

Today we remember the victims of the genocide in #Srebrenica30 We commemorate the 8.000 Bosnian men & boys slaughtered by the Bosnian Serb forces in July 1995 May the memory of the victims inspire us to build a Europe that truly protects peace, freedom, & human dignity for all.
