🇺🇦 At yesterday’s Summit on Ukraine in #London, progressive leaders reaffirmed their commitment to supporting #Ukraine. They emphasised the need for long-term security guarantees & to ensure a just & lasting peace. EU will stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes. @eucopresident.consilium.europa.eu

Together for a just and lasting peace, together with Ukraine.

In London to participate in a summit organized by UK PM Keir Starmer on Ukraine. The EU is working with its partners to support Ukraine and reach a just and lasting peace.

Jonas Gahr Støre Prime Minister of Norway 👏

We stand by your side dear Zelenskyy, and Europe stands united with Ukraine. It is high time for the EU to take its historical responsibility to defend democracy and freedom. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦🇪🇺

🔴 Les propos de Donald Trump ce soir face à Volodymyr Zelensky sont inacceptables. L’ #Ukraine est un pays souverain. Nous réaffirmons notre soutien au peuple ukrainien. Derrière lui, ce sont nos démocraties qui sont menacées. L’Europe doit faire front. #StandWithUkraine

👉🏼For the past 3 years, Ukraine has bravely fought not just for their country, but for Europe, democracy, and the rule of law. ✊🏼President Zelensky has been the face of this resistance. 🌹Today, we say loud and clear: you are not alone.

Following yesterday's outburst by US Pres Trump and VP Vance, we stand firmly with 🇺🇦 Pres Zelensky. In the face of unnacceptable behaviour from a world leader, Zelensky behaved like a true statesman, and diplomatically called out this failed attempt to publicly intimidate him. pes.eu/pes/pes-rall...

🇺🇸 The lack of respect towards the lives of Ukrainians displayed today in the Oval Office by President Trump and Vice President Vance is disgraceful. Shame on you! 🇪🇺Europe will never abandon Ukraine!

Today, we remember Olof Palme, Swedish Prime Minister, murdered 39 years ago. His fight for justice, equality & democracy still inspires. 🌹 His legacy reminds us to defend democracy & keep striving for a fairer, more just world.

🇦🇹 Congratulations to @spoe.at on reaching an agreement to enter a new coalition government in #Austria. Five months after the general election, three centrist parties are expected to join a coalition government, keeping the firewall with the far-right. @andibabler.at

The UN Biodiversity Conference #COP16 negotiations have resumed in Rome. Delegates will discuss targets to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2030, as global wildlife populations have fallen 73% in the past 50 years. 🇪🇺 The EU must continue leading in providing international biodiversity funding.

The United States voted alongside Russia against a United Nations resolution marking the 3-year anniversary of the Russian full-scale invasion of #Ukraine, thus openly neglecting to condemn Russia's aggression against Ukraine. (1/2)

European and Canadian leaders in #Kyiv yesterdaydelivered a strong solidarity and support message to president Zelensky & the Ukrainian people. As progressives, we reiterate our call for Ukraine and Europe to be included in discussions over our connected futures.

Following the German Elections, we stand shoulder to shoulder with Olaf Scholz, the SPD, and the work delivered under his chancellorship in difficult times. We also call upon the CDU & Friedrich Merz to uphold the firewall against the far-right, as declared last night. pes.eu/pes/the-pes-...

3 years since Russia launched its brutal, illegal war of aggression on Ukraine! To help 🇺🇦 achieve a comprehensive, just, lasting peace, we must double down on support, keep maximum pressure on 🇷🇺 & strengthen defence capabilities. Democracy will prevail. Ukraine will prevail!

🇺🇦 Today, we mark three years since the start of the war in #Ukraine. We stand shoulder to shoulder with Ukraine and we support its freedom and territorial integrity. There will be no credible and successful negotiations and no lasting peace without Ukraine and without the EU.

As the digital and green transitions reshape our economies, strong social protection, fair pay, and secure work make our economies stronger. PES ministers’ message is simple — Quality jobs are key to Europe’s economic success. Read the declaration: news.pes.eu/41cNJgt

🇩🇪🗳️ This Sunday, Germans cast their vote in the most decisive elections since the end of WWII. The rise of the far right in a country with a constitution designed to prevent this is a sobering reminder of how populism can overwhelm democracy.

There is only one aggressor: Russia’s warmongering regime. By suggesting that Ukraine started the war, Donald Trump echoes Putin’s disinformation.

We fully stand with the democratic opposition in Serbia. PES Deputy Secretary General Giacomo Filibeck today met with a DS delegation led by party leader Srđan Milivojević in Brussels. Read more 👇

Meet Kata Tüttő, newly elected President of the Committee of the Regions! Kata is also a City Councillor of Budapest & member of PES Presidency. We congratulate her on her election and are confident that her leadership will strengthen the contribution of regions to EU [email protected]

Europe's success rests on its people. Our economy relies on the knowledge, training and know-how of our workforce. PES Employment and Social Affairs ministers signed a joint declaration welcoming Roxana Minzatu's announcement of a Quality Jobs Package (1/2)

PES President Stefan Löfven and SecGen Giacomo Filibeck met with Vienna Mayor @ludwigmichael.bsky.social. A progressive stronghold since 1945, #Vienna invests in public services and affordable housing—ranking among the world’s best cities for quality of life.

Housing is a human right, and everyone should have access to quality housing. However, there isn't enough accommodation, and it is too expensive in far too many cases. PES Housing ministers underlined that the housing crisis requires a strong response and joining forces. More: pes.eu/pes/pes-mini...

Fully agree with @franstimmermans.groenlinkspvda.nl : Europe must now stand shoulder to shoulder and support Ukraine

🌹 Voices of Socialism From the fight for workers’ rights to the push for a united and fairer Europe, socialist leaders have shaped our history and continue to inspire our future. Their words remind us that solidarity, justice, and democracy are not just ideals - they are a call to action.

🇪🇺💪🏻At the start of the Paris Emergency Summit, we call for a united position on European defence and security. Read more 👇🏼

Today, I will participate in the meeting convened in Paris by Emmanuel Macron, for consultations among Europeans, with the presence of the EU and NATO, on the situation in Ukraine and on Europe’s security.

Today we remember Alexei #Navalny, leader of the Russian opposition, who was found dead in his prison cell in Siberia a year ago. Having been previously poisoned with the Novichok nerve agent and as well as being persecuted by Putin's regime, Navalny's death sparked protests and demonstrations (1/2)

🙋‍♀️🇵🇱 Good news for women in #Poland! A law enshrining the notion of consent into the definition of rape has now entered into force. Proposed by @lewica.org.pl last year, the law adds a provision on non-consent to the article on the punishment of rape. (1/2)

Forget flowers and chocolate - this Valentine's, true love is all about solidarity and equality! 💘 Karl Marx might once have said, ‘Your love is the only capital I will never redistribute’ - and we couldn’t agree more. Share this card and send some progressive #love!

Applause for the initiative uniting Pope Francis, Spain’s PM Sánchez, Brasil’s President Lula, and leading economists in calling for tax justice. Combating inequality and defending democracy remain our top priorities. The super-rich must pay their fair share! taxjustice.net/press/pope-l...

Justyna should have never been on trial. What she did should never be a crime. By supporting a woman in need and defending safe abortion in Poland, she showed compassion and courage. Now justice must be served. Justice for Justyna!✊ www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

We stand firmly behind @eucopresident.consilium.europa.eu António Costa. There will be no credible and successful negotiations, no lasting peace, without Ukraine and without the EU.
