@marketkagIn a rule‑of‑law state, investigation comes first, then judgment. Governor Waltz, for example, has also called for that. The U.S. president, after the killing of an unarmed civilian, immediately blames the victim and constructs an enemy. The United States are waging not a political, but a civilizational battle.

@wopkehoekstra.ec.europa.euThe UNFCCC underpins global climate action. It brings countries together to support climate action, reduce emissions, adapt to climate change, and track progress. The decision by the world’s largest economy and second-largest emitter to retreat from it is regrettable and unfortunate.

@marketkagThe municipal initiative continues. Okamura, by spitting on Ukrainians and slapping Putin, could not achieve anything politically – in fact, according to statistics he further roused the public to record‑breaking donations in support of Ukraine. There is no stronger weapon against propaganda than an active civil society.

@christophehansenFarmers spoke. We listened. Today we brought 🇪🇺 Ministers together to take stock and reflect on the way forward for CAP funding, reciprocity on imports & easing the burden of costs and rules on farmers. Turning farmers’ concerns into political action for Europe’s food security.

@magnusbrunner2026 is a decisive year. We need a strong, united, and independent Europe. For this, the CSU provides important impulses. Here is my statement at the CSU retreat in Seeon, live at 12:30: youtube.com/@csuimbundesta… @cducsueuropa.bsky.social

@kajakallasUkraine will need extensive security guarantees after the war to deter Russia from renewed aggression. The Coalition of the Willing exists to turn plans into real protection. Leaders met in Paris today to lock in those security guarantees. (1/2)

@jessikaroswall.ec.europa.euThe question is not whether we can afford to aim higher with the bioeconomy, but whether we can afford to refrain. This is an investment in our future and Sweden can show the way. Feel free to read my editorial in VK 👇 www.vk.se/2025-12-29/d...

@wopkehoekstra.ec.europa.euA strong start to the year for international taxation: the OECD Pillar Two simplification and side-by-side package is agreed. This is a welcome step that stabilises the global tax system, simplifies rules, ensures fairness and keeps businesses competitive.

Rudi KENNES (Belgium)
@rudikennesI condemn unequivocally the brutal colonial attack against the sovereign republic of Venezuela and the Venezuelan people. It is just another example of the anachronistic imperial ambitions of the United States and the total disregard of international law by the thugs of this world 1/4
Markéta GREGOROVÁ (Czechia)
@marketkagInternational law disappoints us precisely because it is violated without consequences. Whether they are dictators or democratically elected (but) dictators—those are the ones who bring into the system that maintained peace, that is, the system enforced by international law, the “law of the stronger.” Which always ends in only one thing: the blood of the innocent.

@katerinakonecna1. I unequivocally condemn the kidnapping and arrest of the Venezuelan president “according to American law.” Can you imagine if Russia did this to a country's president “according to Russian law”? 2. The balancing of “democracy” on the main rifles is not new. In the Latin American region, the world policeman – the USA – has intervened in the internal affairs of a number of states. Especially Cuba, or perhaps Chile, where in 1973 President Allende paid with his life. It is only strange that pro‑regime media and politicians always found some excuse for it. 3. I am waiting for Venezuelan flags on public buildings. 4. A million moments and the Shield for democracy already surely have booked squares and arranged actors who will tell us something about morality. 5. What would the shopkeeper Nerudová probably say at the US embassy (if they still invited her there)? She would probably show them her hysterical superficial statements, as she does on TV with Russia. They would have a lot of fun and maybe tap their foreheads, thinking that in the Czech Republic one can boast of the title “professor.” 6. He has probably already prepared a speech “I am Venezuelan”! 7. If we must not buy Russian gas so as not to support the war, then we should reconsider buying five times more expensive American LNG. And especially the F‑35! 8. The bad tongues claim that Trump wants an end to the war in Ukraine, which is unequivocally positive, to gain more military forces to conduct wars elsewhere, which is definitely not positive. 9. In any case, it is again necessary to repeat – especially for Czech politicians and “Czech” media – that the USA have no permanent friends or enemies, only interests! 10. It cannot be disputed that behind the declared “good” intentions of the USA there is usually an attempt to seize natural wealth. That was basically everywhere in the end. And Venezuela has huge oil reserves. I bet that a government servile to the USA will now be installed, leading to chaos and social, political, and especially economic upheaval in another country.

@kajakallasI have spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and our Ambassador in Caracas. The EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela. The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition. (1/2)
