I am appalled by the death sentence of Zahra Shahbaz Tabari, received after a 10-minute trial without an independent lawyer. I call on the authorities to halt the execution!

Historic meeting in Yerevan between Turkish and Armenian parliamentarians — @iekarayel, @Burhan_Kayaturk, and @Khandanyan_S — marks a major step in normalising relations & boosting EU-Asia connectivity and trade. We welcome all positive steps by Turkey 🇹🇷 and Armenia 🇦🇲!

I congratulate the newly elected Turkish Cypriot leader @tufanerhurman and consider this as a positive step for a reconciliated and united Cyprus.

Euroscola in Strasbourg last Friday! Young, bold, inspired. Two hours of questions and answers with the representatives of Europe's future. We are in good hands! Priceless moments!

Two days since EMFA took effect, landmark legislation reaffirming media freedom as the backbone of democracy. Recent news from Tirana about Panorama Group’s rental lease raise questions. I call for full transparency and protection of free media & journalism in Albania

It was a pleasure meeting Moldova's Deputy PM & FM, @MihaiPopsoi! I congratulated him on Moldova's brave reforms on its path to EU membership. Moldova is an example of respect for diversity and a working path toward successful integration of ethnic communities. #EU #Moldova

At this extremely dangerous time, Jordan is a center of stability and His Majesty @KingAbdullahII is a guarantor of the peaceful future of the Middle East region and of coexistence of Christians, Muslims and Jews. The Middle East needs more leaders like King Abdullah II.

The May parliamentary elections were a key moment. Concerns remain over the widespread misuse of public resources by the ruling party and cases of intimidation of voters. Key reforms must be accelerated, especially on rule of law, justice & anti-corruption.

Today’s vote in @EP_ForeignAff on the 🇦🇱 report sends a strong signal of support for the country’s 🇪🇺 path. As the EPP Shadow Rapporteur on Albania, I welcome the progress made in recent months, including the opening of new negotiation clusters.

Another important step in the direction of an effective solution for the Western Sahara has been made. The UK joins the US, France, and Spain among others in backing Morocco's Autonomy Proposal as a credible plan.

I have never heard a speech in the European Parliament by a head of state of an EU Member State that was more geopolitically controversial and that caused more division among MEPs than the one delivered today by Slovenian President Nataša Pirc Musar!

"Я никогда не думал, что окончив Вторую мировую войну, кто-то начнёт новую войну... Украина борется, она сражается, она защищает свою Родину. Я на коленях стою перед героями этой страны". Человек, прошедший войну, точно знает на чьей стороне правда.

Topics included trade, energy, visa liberalization. Conversations also covered the Middle East, the war in Ukraine, and the role of Iran in the region. Emphasized the importance of strengthening EU-Gulf relations, both at the GCC level and bilaterally.

As part of the AFET mission to the Gulf, held productive meetings with GCC SecGen @jasemalbudaiwi and Saudi State Minister for Foreign Affairs @AdelAljubeir in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia today. Discussed key areas of cooperation between the Gulf and the EU.

We remember the horrific Bucha Massacre 3 years ago - the innocent lives lost, the families torn apart, and the community forever changed. We stand in solidarity with the victims and their loved ones and call for an end to the war and justice for all war crimes.

2 г.след издаването на заповедите за арест на Путин и Лвова-Белова за незаконно депортиране на украински деца,десетки хиляди деца остават заложници на рф.🇺🇦и партньорите й борят за тяхното връщане и за наказание на военнопрестъпниците.Без мир,докато всяко дете не се върне у дома.

As we mark the third year of Russia’s full-scale war of aggression against Ukraine, 🇧🇬 reiterates its firm commitment to supporting 🇺🇦 until justice prevails and the heroic Ukrainian people are given the opportunity to rebuild a strong and democratic Ukraine. #StandWithUkraine

Yesterday H.S.H. Prince Albert II accepted with pleasure the invitation of @EP_President Metsola to visit the European Parliament. In the background, a beautiful painting of the unforgettable Princess Grace Kelly, the mother of Prince Albert II.

Discussed with Prince Albert the power of sport in promoting health, inclusion, and integration. Also conveyed an invitation from EP President Roberta Metsola to visit the European Parliament. Looking forward to future collaborations and Prince Albert's potential visit to Bansko!
