Glad to have contributed to @euractiv.com's #MFF brief. For @reneweurope.bsky.social, a balanced distribution of files between @eppgroup.bsky.social, @socialistsanddemocrats.eu & Renew is essential for a credible and united EP. #NRPP & strong regional access to EU funds remain my top priority!

As a follow-up to the letter to @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu of @eppgroup.bsky.social, @reneweurope.bsky.social, @socialistsanddemocrats.eu & @greens-efa.eu on the #NRPP, we have send concrete proposals of Renew to Raffaele Fitto to ensure strong role of #regions & #cities in the next MFF. Cont.

“Regions will remain at the centre of our work” said
@vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu year ago. We must hold on to this in the next #MFF! Centralisation threatens #cohesion. It takes decisions away from citizens & weakens their #trust in 🇪🇺project. We need strong regions. Promises must be kept!

It was a real pleasure co-hosting w/@sandrogozi.bsky.social @reneweurope.bsky.social seminar on #BridgeForEU. This 🇪🇺 tool, now in place, brings a new dimension to solve daily #barriers in #border regions where 30% of #EU citizens live. Next: awareness-raising & real change on the ground. Stay tuned!

A narrow outcome (10,2 vs 10,6 mil.) of #PolishElections in favour of #Nawrocki is a reason for populists & extremists in #CentralEurope to cheer? I don’t think so. This is #NotANewAlly for your appeasment vis-a-vis Putin & pro-Russian activities undermining security in Europe.

We, in @europarl.europa.eu, are proud to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II. It was a true honour to welcome veterans Robert Chot, Janusz Komorowski & Janusz Maksymowicz fighting for their countries. Powerful moment. Legacy passed on. #WWII80 #EuropeRemembers

Congratulations/Félicitations to our sister party
@liberalparty.bsky.social & @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social
for winning #CanadaElections2025 🇨🇦!

What a response to Trump’s vision of the new world #disorder.

#EU🇪🇺 is looking fwrd to working closer w/🇨🇦 on defending #democracy, #freedom & #trade. 🤝

Full house! Thanks to all who joined our debate on the future of EU budget & cohesion policy. We put #regions back at the heart of 🇪🇺. 4 “BUTs” related to #RRF. We need a 2-tier system that works for all: 1) national plans & 2) regional plans w/ more direct access to EU funds.
April 24, 2025 at 5:24 PM
Pleased to co-host a crucial discussion with MEP Vladimir Prebilic & @ccre-cemr.bsky.social on the future of EU funding. We’ll focus on empowering local governments, decentralising #CohesionPolicy, and making funding more tailored.

📅 24 April | 🕒 14:00–16:30 |📍EP, ASP 5E2

Quel grand honneur de retourner à #Sorbonne en tant qu'ancienne étudiante!

Cette semaine, j’ai parlé aux étudiants sur les valeurs de la Révolution de Velours en Tchécoslovaquie en 1989
🇸🇰🇨🇿

Mon mesaage aux #jeunes:

Ayez du courage pour défendre la démocratie & la liberté!

Merci à Gabriel Attal pour une conversation honnête sur la sécurité & le développement régional. Sur le courage de deféndre la démocratie & nos libertés. 🇪🇺🇫🇷🇸🇰

Thank you for a frank conversation about security & regional development. And on our fight for democracy & freedom.

I was in #Bucha 2 weeks after 🇷🇺 left. As a proud Slovak & European. 3 yrs later I still am.

But some so-called leaders rather bow to Putin & Trump than work w/European partners.

History will remember who stood for Europe’s security & economy. And who looked away.

Let’s lead!

Full house in @europarl.europa.eu #AFCO’s workshop w/ a number of recognized experts on my report on “Stocktaking of the 2024 🇪🇺 Elections”. Polarisation & wide use of social media, incl. disinformation featuring high. I’ll stick to facts, not emotions. But no time for business as usual.

Never have I ever imagined living in times when a sitting 🇺🇸 President:

1. accuses its major trading partner & ally 🇪🇺 of exploiting US

2. fuels up the trade war w/ us from steel to Champagne 🍾 & wine

What surprised you this week?
March 14, 2025 at 12:12 PM
Kicked off the day with EVP Raffaele Fitto discussing the mid-term review of the #cohesion policy programmes. We focused on making #EU 🇪🇺 funds more accessible and ensuring #regions can use them more efficiently. Direct access to local & regional authorities remains a priority.

#JustTransition of peatlands in Midlands. From restoration (Living Bog) to Kilcormac: local communities know what. We need to engage them directly, also at #EU.

It was an honour leading the mission w/
@reneweurope.bsky.social team! Thank you 🇮🇪 for hospitality!

3 years of war, 3 years of #resilience. Ukraine fights for its freedom—and ours. Meanwhile, Fico’s government abandons our European security. We in Progresívne Slovenskp will always stand for it w/our partners & protect democracy, not dictators. No appeasement for Russia! #SlavaUkraini
February 24, 2025 at 3:15 PM
Great meeting w/ StateSecretary Jan Szyszko. We discussed the plans of #Polan2025EU on the mid-term review & the future of the #CohesionPolicy. It needs to be reformed, but safeguarded for long term investments. We need to keep it closer to our regions & citizens, not further away.
February 18, 2025 at 11:07 AM
Co-signed this #letter from a number of MEPs. We clearly say: #NO to real peace negotiations #without the full participation of #Ukraine and the #EU at the table. This is about our European #security. Full stop.
February 17, 2025 at 1:44 PM
Congratulations! To those who cheered on Trump’s election - ideological war was more important to you than the success of EU economy.

#Trade war has no winners. We should focus on coop. more in energy security, defence, China. If 🇺🇸not willing, we’ll defend our 🇪🇺 interests!
February 12, 2025 at 11:11 AM
As member of #EU-RoK del. met “envoys” from the National Assembly of the Republic of #Korea, incl. liberals from the Democratic Party. Critical to strengthen coop. between those that share views on key issues: #democracy, #security, #trade. Not as a weapon but as necessity.🇪🇺🤝🇰🇷
