Russia thought Ukraine would fall in 3 days, but it has been fighting for 3 years — with the whole EU by its side: training Ukrainian soldiers, financing the delivery of weapons, providing humanitarian support, and leading international efforts to keep Putin accountable. (1/2)

Together with European Foreign Ministers, I spoke to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio after his talks in Riyadh. Russia will try to divide us. Let’s not walk into their traps. By working together with the US, we can achieve a just and lasting peace – on Ukraine’s terms.

Alexei Navalny’s death followed years of persecution by the Kremlin. He was not afraid. He stood for freedom and democracy in the face of oppression. One year after his death, his legacy lives on.

Seven years ago, the Parkland school shooting claimed 17 innocent lives. Today, we remember every family that was shattered that day, and every loved one who has fought through grief to make sure no more children are lost to gun violence.

We view President Trump's proposed "reciprocal” trade policy as a step in the wrong direction. The EU will react firmly and immediately against unjustified barriers to free and fair trade. We will always protect European businesses, workers, and consumers from unjustified tariff measures.

The EU has made, and continues to make, massive commitments to Ukraine's defense, security, economy, humanitarian needs, and reconstruction. And 8 million Ukrainian refugees have crossed into the EU, with 4 million registering for temporary protection. www.eeas.europa.eu/delegations/...

I deeply regret the U.S. decision to impose tariffs on European steel and aluminum exports. The EU will act to safeguard its economic interests. We will protect our workers, businesses and consumers. Read more → europa.eu/!9TPG6B

We should remember to refer to the actual acronym in the executive orders: DEIA. Diversity, equity, inclusion, and *accessibility*. They're coming after those with disabilities, too. Look no further than the statements after the AA5342 crash, about recruiting those with disabilities to the FAA.
