When three years ago, the people of Ukraine woke up to the grim reality of war, we promised them our unwavering support. We kept our word. Because that’s what friends do. Because this is not only about Ukraine. This is about democracy, Europe and everything we stand for.

Choquée par l'attentat de Mulhouse. Mes condoléances à la famille de la victime innocente de cette attaque tragique. Je souhaite un prompt rétablissement aux policiers courageux blessés dans l'exercice de leurs fonctions. L'Europe déterminée dans la lutte contre le terrorisme.

This afternoon our building that represents European democracy in Sofia has been targeted and vandalised. Disgraceful. Unacceptable. We are the first to defend the right to peaceful protests & demonstrations in Europe. But that should never translate to violence & aggression.

It has been seven years since the murder of Slovak journalist Ján Kuciak and his fiancée Martina Kušnírová. The fight for truth and justice is Europe's fight. We remember them. We honour them. And we reiterate our commitment to protecting journalists.

With heavy hearts, the world witnessed the grotesque spectacle of Hamas parading the coffins of two babies & 85 year old peace activist, killed after brutally dragged from their homes & taken hostage. We now learn that the other body returned is not that of Shiri Bibas, the mother of the children.

We will ensure that the story of Holocaust survivor Marian Turski lives on. The world lost a man who lived through the horror and evil of concentration camps. Just last month in Auschwitz, we bore witness to his testimony. His story is of courage and strength. May his memory be a blessing.

With Europeans expecting concrete actions on security, the European Parliament stands ready to work together with @poland25eu.bsky.social to deliver results. Swiftly. This was the focus of my talks with the Marshals of the Polish Sejm Szymon Hołownia and the Polish Senate Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska.

Enjoyed my discussion with @gzeromedia.com’s @ianbremmer.com & @microsoft.com’s Brad Smith at @munsecconf.bsky.social. When we talk about geopolitical instability, we must also address digital security challenges. Europe will keep investing in faster detection to counter cyber attacks.

Bring them home now. Heartbreaking to listen to relatives of hostages held by Hamas speak about what they are still enduring after almost 500 days. In Tel Aviv, I met with families still waiting for news and listened to the raw testimony of survivors who were kidnapped and rescued or released.

A poignant moment on my return to Re'im, the site of horror and the terrible massacre of 7 October 2023. Here, where the hearts remain heavy & the memories remain painful. At the site of the Nova festival, I paid homage to the victims. All remaining hostages must be released.

Good call with United States Speaker Mike Johnson 🇪🇺🇺🇸 Such discussions are important, as is our duty as allies to keep facing shared challenges together: Middle East, Ukraine, security, prosperity. At a time of geopolitical shifts, EU-US relations must be reinforced.

The cornerstone of a more competitive economy must be quality jobs, less red tape, free & fair trade, sustainable growth, higher productivity and a more integrated Single Market. In Malta, it was great to discuss with stakeholders & industry how Europe can innovate & get ready for the future.

Good exchange with @eucopresident.consilium.europa.eu António Costa to follow up after the EU leaders' meeting on security & defence. In this more uncertain global reality, Europe must be responsible for its own security. Now is the time to move forward with closer cooperation & concrete action.

When people look to Europe, they must see leadership. As Europe's face & voice across the world, EU Ambassadors play a paramount role in achieving results globally. Thank you for today's open dialogue & for speaking for Europe. Together - lawmakers & diplomats - we can amplify Europe's influence.

It's time for Europe to take giant leaps. On security, defence, trade. We must respond effectively and robustly. My message to EU leaders today: I know that difficult decisions are needed, but easy has never been a criteria for action. Small steps are no longer an option.

Europe must be able to keep people safe and secure. That means more investment in our collective defence and security. It means ramping up production and deeper cooperation between us all. We're not at a crossroads anymore. This is the path we must take. - at EU leaders' meeting today
