Honoured to host my first DCM meeting and connect with counterparts from all 27 EU Member States. Great discussions on transatlantic relations and shared priorities — plus a stunning snowy view of Washington. We made it in person despite the weather! ❄️🇪🇺🇺🇸

As a fellow Maltese, it is very exciting to witness @EP_President's leadership in @Europarl_EN. Her visit to Washington this week has been empowering, showing us that the EU-US relationship is a major priority across the Atlantic. We will take her words to heart & power forward.

Strong, lasting connections between citizens is at the heart of EU-US relations. This is why @GlobalTiesUS is necessary — they encourage educational & cultural connections. An honour to welcome GT members to the Residence for a reception during their national meeting last month.

A heartwarming evening celebrating the US Polish diaspora and Poland’s Presidency of the EU. 🇵🇱 Polish communities both here and abroad are part of #TeamEurope, and this feeling has become even more important outside our continent. Przyjaciele, you are multipliers of this spirit.

An honor to be present at the signing of a new agreement between @EIB and @EBRD that harmonizes their working relationship. This is multilateralism working for good on shared priorities like Ukraine. Such cooperation is much needed in these turbulent times.

Yesterday I presented the EU enlargement prospects for the #WesternBalkans at a roundtable of the Balkans Forward Congressional Fellowship. The EU is eager to welcome these countries into our family to strengthen our unity and enhance security. Negotiations continue.

Very inspired to join @GWtweets Women’s Leadership Program to share my experience and learn from exceptional US Ambassadors. Women in international relations can be agents of change. To young women: Get that seat at the table and represent!

Yesterday I welcomed a @Europarl_EN delegation that is visiting for discussions on Capitol Hill. Having their presence here in Washington and in front of Congress sends a signal that balanced dialogue is paramount to strengthening EU-US relations.

Strong European representation at last night's roundtable before @GLOBSEC. With experts, we discussed the most needed actions to keep unity and purpose within the transatlantic alliance. This is especially crucial as the war in Ukraine approaches 3 years.

Fue un placer unirme a @funalternativas @SpainInTheUSA to speak on EU-US relations. The EU & US are connected by trade, tech, defense — around 40% of global GDP! You cannot deny the impact of $2.4 trillion in EU investment on the US economy: 3.4 million jobs. We need each other.

At a policy forum hosted by @akin_gump this morning, I underscored that it is in our mutual interest to invest heavily in the transatlantic relationship. We are each other's biggest economic partner. We both want peace in Ukraine. America has no better friend than the EU.

With the Washington International Business Council this AM: No one can deny the impact of the EU-US trade relationship. Investments create jobs that provide wages for communities across both continents. Tariffs will only raise costs and fuel inflation, jeopardizing this.
