Honoured to welcome @president.europarl.europa.eu Roberta Metsola on her crucial visit to the UAE today.

In a time of regional uncertainty, showing unity and strong partnership matters more than ever.
The situation in the Middle East is at inflection point.

I'm in Abu Dhabi on behalf of @europarl.europa.eu, to carry our message to the country’s leadership and representatives of the Gulf region.

At #COP28, we proved that coalition-building can drive global progress. Now we must carry that momentum to Belém for #COP30.
