Food policy only works when the entire food system is part of the conversation Yesterday I chaired the 1st Food Dialogue with my colleague Commissioner Séjourné: 🔹13 million people in the EU work in farming & food processing 🔹9% of EU exports You can read my speech 👉 ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

Trilogue concluded ! We are translating one of farmers’ key demands into concrete action 👉 Today’s agreement will: 🧑‍🌾 strengthen farmers' position in the agrifood supply chain 🤝 reinforce producer organisations 🥩 protect meat-cut-related terms Thank you to the co-legislators!

Great news! Huge thanks to the @europarl.europa.eu and the @eucouncilnewsroom.bsky.social for finalising this so fast.

I had a warm meeting with leader of Democratic Belarus Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya. The future of a democratic Belarus is bound to the European Union, to stability and long-term peace in our region, and to the future of prospering democracies in our Eastern neighbourhood.

Rewatch our press conference at the JHA Council today.

Member States have logged 30+ million EU border crossings. Using fingerprints and facial recognition, we stopped 17,000 people without the right to enter. The EES strengthens the security of Europeans, especially amid new threats linked to the Middle East.

Today, I had the honour of signing an agreement between the EU and Switzerland on the transfer of Passenger Name Record data. This significantly strengthens police cooperation and improves the fight against terrorism, drug trafficking, and child exploitation. @beatjans.ch

We stand before an opportunity. Europe can step onto the global stage united and strong, or resign ourselves to the sidelines. Paraphrasing Winston Churchill in June 1940, this may not be Europe’s finest hour, but it is Europe’s hour of decision. My remarks at the Churchill Lecture in Zurich ↓

The real reason why Babiš, the president, and the whole country had to pretend that Motorists were important has just been realized. Their role as incompetent guardians against criminal prosecution has ended. Congratulations to everyone who took part in that scam, and now we could park them back in the garage (sorry, in the cider mill).

📍Interesting opportunity to reflect on the review of the merger guidelines after a year of consultations with businesses, academics and civil society. Our objective is clear: protect competition and affordability while better taking into account innovation, investment and Europe’s competitiveness.

Europe cannot look away from any type of fraud. 🚫💶 Out of democratic responsibility, today we had to vote against a report promoted by the far right on protecting the financial interests of the Union.

Today, I hosted the first meeting of a special panel on child safety online. For decades, we have made the real world safer for children and we must do the same in the digital world. The positive opportunities that technology offers cannot come at the cost of their safety, health or happiness.

Defending equality also means fighting violence and hatred against women. This week leading up to #8M, we continue working from the European Parliament so that rights and respect are also present in the digital environment 💜✊🏼 #Equality #Rights #Feminism #IWD2026

Proud to see my 1st mandate proposal to protect farmers & small suppliers from unfair trading practices adopted @consilium.europa.eu Now we must match ambition with action: only strong, consistent enforcement across borders can create fair food supply chains for those who feed Europe 🇪🇺
