🛬 Touchdown in Montréal 🇨🇦 Rarely have I looked forward to a Summit this much. An ocean separates Europe and Canada. Yet we have never felt closer. We have a new ambition: bringing Canada closer to us than ever before, as Associate Member of the EU. And we want to take our unique partnership even further. With an Alliance for the Future, we will stand together and respond to a world of growing rivalries. Montréal, we’re about to write a new chapter in our shared history.

The European flags outside the European Commission's seat in Brussels, are flying at half-mast, as a sign of European solidarity following the Spanish authorities’ decision to declare three days of national mourning after the train collision in Urda. Europa llora con vosotros.

Europe will always stand up for the protection of its borders. This is why today we propose to strengthen Frontex. So it can support Member States whenever and wherever needed. Including on returns, with the mandate and capabilities that this new reality demands. link.europa.eu/kyDnMR

Europe is warming at double the global rate. To become truly climate resilient, we need to adjust and learn along the way. Our European Climate Resilience Framework will help us anticipate, prepare for, and manage climate risks. By including climate resilience in policies across the Union, supporting investment, innovation and long-term growth. link.europa.eu/QfFKKh

Congratulations to my friend @LulaOficial on his electoral victory. Democracy and multilateralism have won in Brazil. Europe’s partnership with Brazil is thriving. We will remain by your side for the years to come. Together we will keep working closely for free and open trade. A rules-based global order. And strong ambitions for our climate.

The martyrs of 1956 gave their lives for freedom. Their memory reminds us that the triumph of democracy is not inevitable. Every generation must fight to renew our freedoms and reenergise our democracy ↓ xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1yxBePgvX…

Deeply alarmed by yet another Russian escalation in the Black Sea. A civilian vessel carrying Ukrainian and Azerbaijani crew has been struck off the coast of Romania. These reckless attacks target innocent lives and openly defy international law. My thoughts are with the family and loved ones of the sailor that was killed. And with the families of the three crew members still missing. My gratitude goes to the rescue teams working tirelessly to find them.

When disaster strikes, the EU is there to help. For 25 years, the #EUCivilProtectionMechanism has brought together first responders, experts, and aid from across Europe to protect lives when every second counted. A quarter-century of protection, preparedness, and solidarity.

I welcome the Sakharov Prize awarded to the International Criminal Court. For victims of the world's gravest crimes, justice means a voice. The @IntlCrimCourt must be free to pursue its mission, independently, and without pressure or intimidation. Europe stands firmly behind President Tomoko Akane, the Court's judges and officials, and their vital work for a world governed by rules.

Important conversation on AI with @BillGates and digital CEOs. We have to strike the right balance. Between the huge potential AI holds for our industry, healthcare, innovation and so much more. And its regulation, ensuring trustworthiness and our cyber security. This is why Europe has the AI Act - for innovation under human control. And we will continue our global engagement on better coordination and common standards. To manage the rapid development of AI in the interest of humanity.

Competitiveness starts at home. And we’re doing our homework. Simplifying rules, across the board. Making affordable and clean energy flow with an upcoming Energy Union roadmap. And lifting the remaining barriers to our market, our best asset ↓ xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1DxLdZlWB…
