RT @EP_President: A larger Europe is a stronger and safer Europe.

As @Europarl_EN has long called for, Member States have given the green light to start EU accession negotiations with Ukraine and Moldova.

The opening of the first chapters on democracy, justice and the rule of law underlines both countries' reform efforts and their commitment to European values. All while pushing back against Russia's aggression, threats and intimidation.

Enlargement is our strongest geopolitical tool, and Ukraine and Moldova belong in Europe 🇪🇺🇺🇦🇲🇩

RT @vonderleyen: I welcome the agreement reached between the US and Iran, following sustained diplomatic efforts by several partners.

The priority now is its swift and full implementation by all parties.

This agreement should allow for the immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

Freedom of navigation must be restored toll-free.

This is essential for regional stability and the global economy.

It opens the door to broader negotiations on peace and security in the Middle East.

And should end Iran’s nuclear and ballistic programmes and its destabilising activities in the region.

And of course there can be no peace in the Middle East while Lebanon is in flames.

Once again Europe calls on all parties to respect Lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity and implement a genuine ceasefire.

In Evian, G7 leaders will meet partners from the Gulf and the wider Middle East. Europe is ready to play its part.

This crisis also carries a clear lesson.

Once again, energy dependencies have been weaponised.

We must diversify our supply routes and develop alternative export corridors to diversify away from the bottleneck of Hormuz.

We will discuss this, and more, in Evian.

RT @ZelenskyyUa: Efforts to deal with the aftermath of the Russian strikes are ongoing in Kyiv, as well as in Kharkiv. Last night, the Russians launched more than 60 missiles at the capital alone. In total, 70 missiles and 611 drones were used against Ukraine. As of now, 28 people have been reported injured and four killed in the capital. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. A Russian strike on the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra set the Dormition Cathedral on fire – a church whose history dates back to the 11th century. And this is one of Russia’s most serious crimes against Christian culture to date. The State Emergency Service has already extinguished the fire on the cathedral’s roof. In Kharkiv, the Russians carried out a repeat strike against our rescuers as they were putting out a fire at the site of an earlier strike on an industrial facility. So far, tragically, five people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. Nine people have been injured. In Dnipro, Russia struck the grounds of a railway station, a college, and several enterprises.

Other cities and communities were targeted as well. The Kyiv, Dnipro, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, and Mykolaiv regions were also under attack. This is how Russia shows the world its intention to continue the war. It is very important that there be a response from the G7 countries, which are now gathering for their summit – and that this response be decisive and substantive: more pressure on the aggressor and more support for Ukraine’s air defense, especially anti-ballistic capabilities. I thank everyone who is helping us protect lives.

RT @eucopresident: I welcome the agreement just announced between Washington and Tehran. I look forward to an end to this costly war and to the full restoration of freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.

I commend the tireless diplomatic efforts of all those who made this deal possible.

Weapons must now fall silent, and outstanding differences must be resolved by peaceful means, in accordance with international law. The European Union is ready to contribute to advancing a comprehensive strategy for lasting peace across the Middle East.

RT @andrii_sybiha: Putin sends a message to G7 and European Council summits this week: he bets on terror instead of diplomacy.

I urge the G7 and European leaders to hear this message well and ensure a proper response: stronger air defense for Ukraine and pressure on the aggressor.

At least 4 civilians have been killed and almost 30 injured in Kyiv as a result of Russia’s massive attack with the use of over 60 missiles and hundreds of drones.

Russia also killed 5 first responders in a vile double-tap strike on Kharkiv.

There have been more casualties across Ukraine in Dnipro, Kharkiv, Donetsk, Sumy, Mykolayiv, Zaporizhzhia, and other regions.

As the 21st century’s worst barbarian, Putin specifically targeted unique religious and cultural sites.

Russians severely damaged the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra; bombed the historic Oleksandr Dovzhenko Film Studios, destroying Ukraine’s largest and oldest costumes collection; struck the Kharkiv Art Museum and the Dnipro House Of Organ And Chamber Music.

Russia has no justification for ruining lives, targeting residential areas, and destroying Ukrainian culture. It must be held accountable for its crimes.

This attack demonstrates the urgent need to strengthen Ukraine’s air defense. This is priority number one. Additional contributions to PURL, strong decisions to provide Ukraine with air defense systems and interceptors.

We also urge our partners to speed up the Ukraine-led European effort to develop our own protection from ballistic threats. It is time to deprive barbarians such as Putin from their terrorist tools.

RT @MartaKosEU: Today is Mega-Monday for EU enlargement.

First, Ukraine and Moldova will take their biggest step since the decision to start EU accession negotiations in 2023.

We will also close two more chapters with Montenegro, bringing it close to half of all chapters closed.

It’s a day to celebrate. I’ll also use today to urge candidates to continue the pace of reforms.

RT @MartaKosEU: We strongly condemn Russia’s latest attacks on Ukraine.

They killed rescuers in Kharkiv, wounded civilians in Kyiv and set fire to the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, one of Ukraine’s most important religious sites.

The timing says it all.

On the day Ukraine opens its first negotiation cluster with the EU, Moscow shows again what it fears most.

A democratic Ukraine, firmly anchored in Europe.
