Around the table. Where regional parliaments should be when we negotiate the next #MFF. @Calrenet, it was not just a keynote speech but a pleasure for me. Thank you, @ManfredWeber and @TobiasReissMdL!

"We will not allow citizens to be left behind." - EP rapporteur @AndreyNovakov. .@EP_Transport has adopted its negotiating guidelines on changes to EU passenger rights. Learn more ↓ https://t.co/AyRgrQgBgS

We are committed to finding a fair balance between the interests of the aviation industry and passengers rights. However, we will not compromise on the current levels and fundamental principles of passenger protection. @AndreyNovakov https://t.co/oZPxOUoMrH

It is time for regional policy to be defined for the regions, by the regions. They should have a 'veto' power on any detrimental reforms. @AndreyNovakov 📰The full text of the EPP Group's position paper is available here: https://t.co/Hq4yHmpHUc

Just days before the @EU_Commission's #MFF roadmap, the @EPPGroup sets out key demands on future Regional Policy: 🛑 No centralisation ✅ Strong, separate cohesion funds 📢 Power to the regions Read more: https://t.co/clQRfHLdVp @AndreyNovakov

Today @EP_Transport Committee 🗳️voted on EU passenger rights rules ✈️🚄🧳 📽️Statement of Rapporteur @AndreyNovakov and extracts from the vote, available to download ➡️ https://t.co/TtB1zvjEUc

EPP is the Group of regions, cities and rural areas as those are the starting points for economic growth, social prosperity and resilience. #cohesionpolicy https://t.co/cSkphzfFgm @AndreyNovakov

We will insist on keeping the 3-hour threshold, because we know that raising it would leave thousands of passengers without protection, says @AndreyNovakov MEP. #PassengerRights #EPlenary

Battlefield technology changes every three weeks. In the EU, it would take three years for the procurement of drones. Thank you @ebsummiteurope for hosting me at #EDSS2025.

Joining the panel,  @AndreyNovakov, Member of @Europarl_EN, stressed the urgency of rapid adaptation in defence: “Every three weeks the technology in the battlefield is changing - The union shall adapt very rapidly in this environment” 🛡️⚔️ Staying ahead in defence innovation

We cannot allow the Member States to undermine the hard-won rights of air passengers. @AndreyNovakov https://t.co/he7rJJf7y1

✈️ Weakening passenger rights would betray the trust citizens have placed in the EU to defend their interests. We cannot allow it. https://t.co/TXQYwlbTln via @EPPGroup

От днес не ставаме по-малко българи, а повече европейци 🇧🇬🇪🇺

Cohesion policy is a sleeping beauty. Incredible outcomes in our regions, cities and rural areas but slow progress, red tape, limited flexibility. EPP Group calls for simpler, faster, better. Now.

✈️ #PassengerRights in 🇪🇺 need to be effective enough + it’s a question of balance: fair enforcement & clear responsibilities for air carriers and intermediaries ➡️ timely discussion w @IATA on how EU can do better on protecting passengers

As of this week, I am joining the Committee on Security and Defence of the EP. My agenda? Investment in defence, European defence union, military mobility, defence industry support & protection of critical infrastructure. Looking fwd to serving in the name of our land and people.

Cohesion policy is vital for municipalities lacking investment. We want to preserve it but the actual payments in the EU are merely 6.4%. Our priority is to make investment flow faster. Glad to have discussed that challenge with @RaffaeleFitto during today's @EP_Regional meeting.

🚫 🚗 Bans won’t build the future - innovation will. We need diverse technologies, not blanket bans, to protect the historical leadership of European automotive industry. The EU’s climate ambitions shouldn’t come at the cost of 13 million jobs. #automotiveindustry

.@EPPGroup delivers for regions, cities, and rural areas. In just 30 days, we launched #RESTORE - €18 billion for flood recovery across the EU. Natural disasters are EU-wide challenges requiring EU-wide solutions. Solidarity today, resilience tomorrow. @AndreyNovakov Watch⤵️

Great meeting with the mayor of #Alcantarilla @JBuendiaGomez. As @EPPGroup coordinatior in @EP_Regional it is always a pleasure to discuss EU's regional approach. Real cohesion is created not just for, but with and by European regions, municipalities, and mayors.
