.@eucopresident Costa replied to my open letter condemning his visit to 🇷🇸 after #Vučić participated in Moscow 9 May parade. Lots of words, no action! Today, #Vučić & @RobertFicoSVK honour WWII in 🇨🇳 with war criminal #Putin. 🇪🇺 can't justify dictators. @EPPGroup @EP_Defence

Second day at the Interparliamentary Conference in #Copenhagen. The focus is common foreign and security policy. Performers included @larsloekke and @davidmcallister. We must keep focus on 🇺🇦. #Gaza is important, but EUs main concern is not 🇮🇱 or #Hamas, it is Russia. @EPPGroup

#MMF mobilised only €131bn for 🇪🇺 defence! In comparison: In 2022, #RepowerEurope got €650bn and #NextGENEurope €806bn. That €131 bn is just a drop in the ocean; national budgets alone won’t guarantee Europe's survival. #EUdefence @EPPGroup @EP_Defence

War criminals with communistic symbols … So many years and nothing has changed. Same, old, Russian, imperial mentality. No peace talks are serious until Putin’s mafia is definitely defeated. #Alaska @EPPGroup @EPP

Gave an interview to #Kosovo's Tevë1. Serious institutional crises have an impact on the further enlargement process. The #EU can't even lift sanctions until 🇽🇰 has a functioning government. @EPPGroup @eu_enlargement_ @Europarl_EN

#USA taking its troops out of #Europe would be a very bad scenario. 🇪🇺 leading politicians must make clear to 🇺🇸 that we need them here, but also that it is highly beneficial for the #US to maintain strong transatlantic ties. @EP_Defence @Europarl_EN @EPPGroup

Even pro-Kremlin analysts admit that 🇷🇺 economy is cracking down: #SMEs are closing, the state budget is in deficit, volatility spreads in the stock market. New 🇪🇺 sanctions tighten the screws even more. Keep it up – bring the beast down! @EPPGroup @EP_Defence @EU_Commission

#CAP and #cohesion are essential to the EU's identity. Merging them into one mega-fund, as @EU_Commission plans in the new #MMF, does more harm than good. 2+ years until the final deal - it's going to be a long, tough political fight 🇪🇺💪 @Europarl_EN @EPPGroup @politico

Fish stocks in the #Baltic are collapsing. But their natural enemies, cormorants, are multiplying. Together with MEPs, I’ve asked Commissioner @JessikaRoswall to act. We must update 🇪🇺 rules and allow control of the cormorant population. @EU_Commission @EPPGroup #BalticSea

.@Vilnius is just 25 km from the #Belarus border. 🇱🇹 has invested heavily in air defence, but the capital’s proximity to 🇧🇾 remains a vulnerability. The LT government did absolutely right to respond with maximum seriousness to the airspace violation. @EP_Defence @EPPGroup

Ahead of today’s vote in @EP_Agriculture, the EPP Group reaffirms its unwavering support for a strong, fair, and future-proof EU agricultural policy post-2027. Weakening agricultural policy would be a deal-breaker for the next EU long-term budget (#MFF) epp.group/e9z2l175

If the @NATO summit gave hope, then the #US decision to halt weapons to 🇺🇦 and lift #Sanctions on 🇷🇺 is another serious setback. 30,000 fresh North Korean troops only amplify the alarm. 📢❗️ The #EU must urgently step up to fill the void! @EPPGroup @EP_Defence @Europarl_EN

Honoured to open @Europarl_EN discussion with Admiral Bauer and Leonoor Russell. #Security is about strength, but also narrative. The new book "If You Want Peace, Prepare for War" focuses on communication, defence, unity in critical times like today. @EPPGroup @EP_Defence

This week in Brussels, NAFO representatives met with @RihoTerras to discuss modern sustainable forest management in the U.S. We were happy to share how private forest owners in the U.S. are proving that environmental stewardship and economic growth can go hand-in-hand.
