#NavidIrani ist jetzt seit 9 Monaten im Iran in Haft - es geht ihm psychisch sehr schlecht. Navid wird unter anderem Spionage vorgeworfen, weil er in einem ZDF-Beitrag über seine Hoffnung für den Iran gesprochen hat. Durch Aufmerksamkeit können wir ihn & seine Familie schützen!

In 2023 I wrote this, based on testimony of people who lived under Russian occupation. And the situation is much worse now:

Europe cannot afford to fall behind while the world moves ahead.
We need a budget that boosts our competitiveness, strengthens our common defence and invests in future.
Budget cuts undermine Europe’s ability to meet tomorrows challenges and deliver for its citizens.
Europe must do better.

I was on my way to The New Yorker festival to speak on Russia with David Remnick when I received the news of Anna Politkovskaya's assassination. A brave soul who saw things clearly and was not afraid to also speak clearly. As I said then, we don’t know who did it, and may never know, but we know who is responsible and that his address is the Kremlin. I encourage you to honor her and her legacy by reading her works, not just her obituaries.
Novaya Gazeta releases Anna Politkovskaya commemorative stamp
On the 20th anniversary of the murder of prominent Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya today, Novaya Gazeta releases a stamp featuring her portrait.
The photo of Politkovskaya is rendered in the style used for portraits of Nobel laureates. The editorial team says that had the journalist not been killed, she would have been the one to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
Politkovskaya gained international renown for her exposés of Kremlin corruption and the brutal treatment of civilians in Chechnya at the hands of Russian forces during the Second Chechen War.
Despite the risks that came with reporting from Chechnya and the numerous acts of intimidation and violence she was subjected to, Politkovskaya refused to give up writing. She was killed by four gunshots at point-blank range, including one to her head, on 7 October 2006.

#NavidIrani ist mein iranischer Pate. Er sitzt im Gefängnis, unter anderem, weil er im ZDF über Freiheit für seine Heimat gesprochen hat. Das geht aus der Anklageschrift hervor. Am Sonntag steht er vor Gericht & könnte eine drakonische Strafe erhalten. Eure Aufmerksamkeit hilft!

If we expect the European Union to do more, we must give it the means to deliver.
@Europarl_EN calls for a larger, more ambitious EU budget, financing #security, #defence and #competitiveness alongside strong support for #cohesion and #agriculture. New priorities require new resources. #OwnResources
These are the priorities we will defend in the negotiations.
We also need an agreement in time for local, regional and national authorities to prepare investments, so that EU funding can deliver results from the start of the next funding period.

J'exprime notre pleine solidarité avec l'Estonie qui vient d'attribuer à la Russie la responsabilité d'un incendie ciblant une entreprise du secteur de la défense.
Il y a quelques semaines l'Allemagne en avait fait de même pour un incident très grave à l'aéroport de Leipzig.
La multiplication de ces actes hostiles traduit une dangereuse fuite en avant de la part de la Russie, qui ne fera que la mener dans l'impasse.
La Russie doit savoir qu'elle n'aura raison ni de notre unité, ni de notre détermination à continuer de soutenir l'Ukraine.

The EU🇪🇺 will manufacture a lot satellites🛰️. But to deliver, we need more EU launchers 🚀! For EU economy, defence & climate!
I will go on a "Launch Tour" to visit launch, manufacturing, test facilities. And in 2027, I will present an Action Plan on European Access to Space.

Update on the government formation process in #Romania:
Following my appointment by the 🇷🇴President on Thursday, 17 September, I started working on the governing programme together with our three coalition partners: the two @EPP member parties, PNL and RMDSZ, and the @RenewEurope member party, USR.
We are closely aligning our positions on both the process and the governing programme.
Yesterday and today, during official meetings of their parliamentary groups, all three parties confirmed their support for me.
Today, I will present the main priorities of our governing programme. By the end of the week, I will present the Cabinet and submit both the programme and the Cabinet to Parliament for approval.
I expect the parliamentary hearings to take place on Monday, 28 September, followed by the plenary vote on Tuesday, 29 September.
Strong partnerships make us stronger.
In the European Parliament, Canadian PM @MarkJCarney made the case for resilience, sovereignty and freedom:
"We are pursuing resilience so no one - no one - can control our open markets, impair our sovereignty, threaten our territorial integrity, or undermine our freedoms, our democracies or our rule of law."
Europe and Canada are like-minded partners. Together, we can build greater resilience and defend the values we share.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney addressed Members of Parliament today.
The EU and Canada share the same fundamental values. We are always stronger when we work together.
Learn more about his message → link.europa.eu/Npnkrg

ALT Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stands at the speaker's podium in the European Parliament hemicycle in Strasbourg, with the EU flag visible in the background. A quote reads: "A Canada–EU alliance would create a beacon for other democracies, not defined by what we oppose, but about what we are for: freedom, solidarity, prosperity, sustainability." The European Parliament logo appears in the bottom right corner.
A historic moment at the #SOTEU address.
European Commission President @vonderleyen opens the door for Canada to become the first associated member of the European Union.
"In short, we want to bring the relationship with Canada to the highest level possible," she said in the presence of Prime Minister @MarkJCarney.

Die @AfD & @Frohnmaier_AfD bestreiten, dass Putin Deutschland bedroht und angreift. Sie tun das, weil sie selbst auf der Seite Putins stehen. Damit verraten sie unser Land, die Sicherheit & die Freiheit des deutschen Volkes - die Dinge, denen wir als Priorität verpflichtet sind.

Dear Daphne,
These have been difficult days and hours for many, more so for your loved ones who have been through so much and who were forced to relive all the horror of that black October day.
A letter. A prize. A message of solidarity.
For those behind prison walls, knowing they are not forgotten gives hope.
Human rights are universal. The EPP Group will always stand with those defending freedom, democracy and dignity.
We will never stop supporting those who fight for these values.

I thank my party, PNL Romania, and our two partner parties, @USR_oficial and the Party of the Hungarian Minority in Romania, for my nomination as candidate for Prime Minister of Romania.
The next step is the formal nomination by the President of Romania, who has to choose between a socialist candidate and myself, as proposed by the @epp and @RenewEurope member parties in #Romania.
