🇪🇪🇪🇺Good discussion with Minister Andres Sutt on EU’s clean transition. #Estonia shows how innovation and strategic investment strengthen competitiveness while accelerating decarbonisation. European investments are helping modernise infrastructure & energy security, and deliver affordable energy.⚡️

EU Defence Ministers are meeting today to discuss Europe’s security, from support for Ukraine to freedom of navigation in the Middle East. Ukraine is turning the tide of the war, and we are helping them, including by advancing the unblocking of €6.6 billion through the European Peace Facility (1/2)

🇫🇮 Touchdown in Helsinki! Two packed days ahead focused on key shared priorities, including: 🔹Competitiveness & innovation 🔹Simplification 🔹Security & support for the EU's Eastern Border Regions Looking forward to hearing the perspectives of Finnish stakeholders. @eukomissio.ec.europa.eu

Protecting European citizens is our top priority. And it is exactly what the EES is doing successfully since October last year. 29 Schengen Member States 88,5 million registrations 39 000 refusals issued 1 000 potential security threats stopped

Higher than in the past 15million years. That’s not “ideological”. It’s facts and knowledge. And the raising speed of growing concentration is pretty scary.

Good input to the “intellectual Big-Bang”on European defence by @ecfr.eu. Wide scope of issues, deep analysis/ideas: from European defence industry development to European Strategic Enablers, from European nuclear deterrence to the role of E5+ in pan-European defence developments. 1/

In June 1979, 9 nations voted together for Europe for the first time. 180 million voters. One shared ballot. A triumph of post-war European integration and the start of a project about what European democracy should look like. 47 years on, it's still going strong. #ProtectWhatMatters

Equal work deserves equal pay. 3 years ago, the EU agreed that payment of all employees should be clearly indicated, so that men and women receive the same. Now, EU countries are bringing these new rules into national law.

Today we met with leaders from EU countries and the Western Balkans in Montenegro. Our message is clear: the future of the Western Balkans is in the European Union. And we are focusing on practical steps that bring us closer together ↓

I am very concerned about the news I receive from Bolivia. Peaceful protests by civic movements have been met with brutal state repression and violence. Small farmers have a right to their lands and they shouldn't be damaged in favour of huge agro-business companies.

The drone explosion in the port of Constanța shows that Russia’s war is increasingly spilling over into EU territory. I spoke with Foreign Minister @oana_toiu about today's developments and expressed the EU’s full solidarity with Romania. (1/3)

Meet the women rewriting the rules of tech. We celebrate 9 pioneers from the EU and partner nations winning the European Prize for Women Innovators. From space to healthcare, they show that if you want freedom to shape the future, you #ChooseEurope ↓ link.europa.eu/c6KthK
