In this highly volatile and dangerous situation, restraint to prevent further escalation is of great importance. Preventing a broader regional conflict and protecting civilians must be the immediate priority. The future of Iran must lie in the hands of the Iranian people.

The Iranian regime has inflicted immense suffering. Europe has called for dismantling its instruments of oppression and has imposed sanctions. We stand with the Iranian people in their fight for freedom. Iran must no longer pose a threat to its neighbours or to global security.

Respect to Uruguay & Argentina for strongly ratifying the EU trade agreement. It paves the way for one of the world’s largest economic zones. With all safeguards in place to protect our farmers, the EU should follow & provisionally apply the agreement so free trade can start now.

Four years of 🇺🇦 resilience, of courage — Ukrainians defending their homes, freedom, and territorial integrity. Defending our European way of life. A powerful reminder that peace cannot be taken for granted. It must be protected. Strengthened. Defended. We #StandWithUkraine!

Europa verliert wirtschaftlich an Boden, warnt unser Fraktionsvorsitzender @ManfredWeber. Wir haben alles, was es braucht: Jetzt muss ein entschlossener wirtschaftspolitischer Kurs den europäischen Binnenmarkt endlich vollenden und durch konsequenten #Bürokratieabbau entfesseln.

At the @MunSecConf, a very good exchange with @ChiefRabbiPG Goldschmidt & @GadyGronich on the values that bind our societies together. Our European way of life must remain rooted in freedom, dignity & mutual respect—we must ensure Jewish communities can live safely & freely. #MSC

Our biggest asset is the Single Market: €18 trillion GDP, 26 million businesses, an economic powerhouse. We have skilled workers, great infrastructure, and the will to make 🇪🇺 EU competitive. We must deepen integration in energy, finance, services, and reduce bureaucracy.

Europe isn't competitive enough. It must speed up! Competitiveness means young people don’t have to leave home to find work, small businesses can grow beyond borders & families face lower everyday costs. People want more than promises—they want opportunity, fair pay & fair jobs.

The EPP shares a clear common direction on what we have achieved in 2025 and what we must deliver in 2026. Competitiveness must drive the European agenda: completing the Single Market, creating quality jobs, ensuring fair pay for fair work—with & for the people. Remote #EPPsummit

Thank you for joining us @KubiliusA. We want a Europe that is able to protect its people, that builds a joint European defence. A real European defence market, pan-European flagship projects—drone defence, Eastern Flank Watch, 🇪🇺 air and space shields—answer today’s threats.

In a world of division, we choose unity—because people need it and Europe needs it. This calls for decisive policies: for growth, for jobs, for economies and societies that are more resilient and prepared for the challenges ahead. Thank you @RaffaeleFitto for joining our meeting.

Politics starts with listening to people, putting people’s concerns at the centre of political action. In a world of challenges, we choose responsibility, leadership, and vision. Thank you for the valuable discussion @JernejVrtovec.

Growth. Security. Border integrity. These are our EPP priorities for 2026—because it's time for Europe's independence. In the face of global challenges, we must stand united and uphold our European democracy, the rule of law, the Union’s territorial integrity, and its values.
