🟢 Today marks the 40th anniversary of Heinrich Böll's death. Heinrich Böll, one of the most important writers of the Federal Republic of Germany, died on 16 July 1985. As a humanist, he engaged in social debates, stood up for the persecuted and remained committed to individual freedom. His work focused on interpersonal relationships: empathy, morality, freedom and responsibility. He spoke out against hate speech, fake news and indifference. Böll reminded us that human beings are capable of critically reflecting on themselves and their environment and of choosing humane values. The age of humanity is not over.

💶 What should the EU spend more money on? Priority for the respondents is defence, internal security, research, education and innovation, and the economy.
⚠️ Strikingly, support for climate spending has fallen sharply – from 42.2% (2022) to 24.8% (2025).
