@jessikaroswall.ec.europa.euToday, on November 25, we raise our voices for the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. Violence against women is never a private issue — it’s a global human rights crisis that touches women and girls, families, communities, and futures.
José CEPEDA (Spain)
@josecepedaThe rights of women. Their dignity. The truncated lives and broken childhoods left by gender-based violence. For freedom and against fear. We owe all of this the promise, this #25N, to continue building a future free of violence.

@mguentherThe EU must not dilute the EU deforestation regulation. Despite two years of preparation, the Commission – with support from the German government – wants to delay it and delete central obligations. That would be a setback for climate, biodiversity, and the protection of indigenous communities.

@mguentherAt the World Climate Conference – COP30 – it failed to commit to phasing out fossil fuels, thereby once again putting profits above life itself.

@kimvsparrentakMeta stopped research showing that apps cause damage to mental health – nos.nl/l/2591606 Not surprised anymore, but it's important that we keep sharing this kind of news.

@rudikennesOn Tuesday we had the honour of welcoming @franceskalbs.bsky.social to the European Parliament and to our @left.eu Group meeting. As UN special rapporteur, she has been so important in amplifying and legitimising Palestinian voices fighting occupation, apartheid, and genocide.

@piotrserafinTogether with MEP Carla Tavares & Commission Representation in Lisbon we visited Orquestra Geração in Amadora 🇵🇹🇪🇺 The project promotes social inclusion through music and gives children and teens tools for life. It’s co-financed by the European Social Fund and above all, they’re just a great band 👏

@piotrserafinI end my visit to Portugal 🇵🇹🇪🇺 with a meeting with Joaquim Miranda Sarmento, Minister of State and Finance. We discussed the revenue side of the next #EUBudget and key priorities ahead in the MFF negotiations.
Piotr Serafin
@piotrserafinThank you to the Members of the Committee on European Affairs of the Portuguese Parliament 🇵🇹 for today’s discussion on the next #EUBudget. I appreciate the valuable insights, which I will certainly bring back to Brussels.
Piotr Serafin
@piotrserafin🇵🇹 My Tour d’Europe in Portugal kicked off yesterday evening with a meeting with Ministers Paulo Rangel, Manuel Castro Almeida and Inês Domingos to discuss the next long-term #EUBudget. Thank you for hosting me in Lisbon. Today I’m visiting Amadora — more details soon 🎼🎺🎻
Fabienne KELLER (France)
@fabiennekellerI have been repeatedly questioned about a text under debate in the European Parliament, which aims to criminalise smuggling networks that exploit the misery of migrants. Indeed, there is a major risk that, with the adoption of this text in its current form, a conflation would lead to the criminalisation of migrant aid associations as well. With my group Renew Europe we are fighting to prevent this. It would be a major and dangerous shift. I have submitted several amendments in that direction, to protect humanitarian associations, and I am fighting, with my progressive colleagues, against this criminalisation promoted by the right and the far right. Mobilisation continues! → See the video on YouTube → See the video on Instagram

@piotrserafinWe spoke with Minister Jacek Karnowski about the use of EU funds in Poland 🇪🇺🇵🇱 In the new EU budget we proposed a ten‑fold increase in funds for military mobility: ports, rail, and roads (dual‑use infrastructure). Poland is already making good use of such funds.

@fabiennekeller124 billion € per year — What Europe brings to France 🇫🇷🇪🇺 This is the average economic return for France from its membership in the EU. And that, without counting all the non‑economic benefits: security, defense, cultural exchanges, social and environmental policy, and the place of Europeans in the world. Let’s stop saying that France pays too much to Europe. Let us defend our national contribution with courage and pride. It’s not a burden; it’s an investment in the future. → Read our booklet → Share on X → Share on Facebook

@kimvsparrentakHere we go again. While political leaders in Berlin talk about digital sovereignty, we again see how vulnerable we are. Now it's about a disruption, but our digital infrastructure can also be deliberately shut down. Therefore we must quickly build robust European alternatives.

@idoiamendiaThe open process at the UN represents a unique opportunity to advance the explicit and binding recognition of the dignity and equality of older people and to combat ageism. 📢We need greater involvement from the EU and Member States. www.linkedin.com/pulse/idoia-...

@katerinakonecnaDo you know what the pinnacle of hypocrisy is? When a crowd at the National cheers the author of these words: “Right now, the initiative, responsibility, and flexibility of the Soviet Union and other socialist countries deserve the most pride. With them they present the world a variety of peace proposals and the way to solve problems in Soviet society, a way that other countries of the socialist camp also adopt. Among the successes of our republic I value most the relatively high standard of living in our society and the fact that we have managed to balance our payments with the West.” “In my personal life I live according to the principles of socialist morality and generally applicable ethical norms.” “Both of my parents are members of the KSČ and actively participate in party work.” “During primary school I was a member of the Pioneers, holding no office. In high school I joined the SSM, where I also took part in political education in the Lenin circle.” “None of my relatives, friends, or acquaintances engaged in negative political activity, committed anti‑state or anti‑societal acts, or broke the law.”
