Sovereignty for sale !

China and Russia are undermining our democracy and security… and the radical right is their Trojan horse !

EU ministers today : a lot of words but no actions !

What more do we need to fully support Ukraine? Send Patriots and the promised ammunition now !

And let’s finally start to work on a European Defense Union !

Putin's pal, Slovakia's PM Fico, refuses to send aid to Ukraine, so the Slovakians are crowdfunding it themselves, with over €3m raised in just a few days.

Roll this out across 🇪🇺!
Congratulations, 🇸🇰 Mier Ukrajine civil initiative Peace for Ukraine!

US approval of Ukraine aid mustn't lead to complacency.

The opposite, it should galvanise Europeans to immediately do our part of the job now...delivering Patriots and promised ammunition!

America is back where it should be: Supporting Freedom.

But I will for my life never forget that in the Republican group - the party of Reagan - a majority of 112 traitors voted against !

The strength of the European project lies in unity, solidarity, and the determined defence of the fundamental values that underpin our Union.

Instead of the empty promises of the last European Council, we expected one decision: 6 additional Patriot systems for Ukraine to avoid new massacres as happened again today !

“Le nationalisme, c’est la guerre.”
(François Mitterand)

Trying to fit a complex world into a simplistic race and religion perspective is a recipe for disaster.

Positive news, but why limit this to 18 - 30 year olds?

A return to real free movement for all, which was always conditional, would also open up the EU single market & end some of the Tory Brexit bureaucracy !

7 out of 10 Europeans want to vote… knowing that the current geopolitical context makes it more important than ever.

Europe means democracy — Democracy needs Europe !

🇪🇺✊🏻

Let’s face it: for strategic, defence, green investments… Europe needs a bigger budget.

Perfectly possible and responsible option: Eurobonds and own resources…

The status quo is untenable and irresponsible !

Apart from the ethical, geostrategic failures of allowing Russia to murder civilians in Ukraine, the costs of a new wave of refugees needing shelter will far surpass the costs of sending the necessary military support to Ukraine NOW. The costs of inaction today rise and rise!

Ridiculous own goal…
We cherish freedom of speech, even for those - like Orbán - who don’t.

Democrats should push back not with censorship but with a more convincing, more compelling and more energetic vision of a better world !

Letta is entirely right: We need a fully integrated single market financial services, energy, digital communications en tech… and national thinking has been holding us back for years.

Time to act !

Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, Romania, Spain, Greece…

Europe has Patriot anti-missile systems and Ukraine badly needs them.

86 MEPs call on them to deliver the Patriots NOW !

Farage returns to Brussels. Not to collect his MEP pension, he can get that in England, but to be with Europe's far right friends of Putin.

Braverman, a Tory MP, on stage with Vlaams Belang, who vote against aid to Ukraine, LGBTI rights, abortion rights! PM Sunak does nothing?

Ukraine was a wake-up call…
Iran is a wake-up call…
Trump’s possible return is a wake-up call…

When will Europe finally wake up and get its act together on security and defense and establish a European Defense Union ?!

Real Republicans remember:
“States like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world”

Mike Johnson &
Donald J. Trump, liberate the support to Ukraine immediately !
