We urge @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu to deliver a bigger and stronger Multiannual Financial Framework-post 2027. A genuine system of new own resources and joint borrowing that can address the challenges facing Europeans with no cuts in social spending.

Only one day after the legislative initiative was proposed, the Hungarian 🇭🇺 Parliament voted in favour of a nationwide ban on prides 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️. I am shocked and deeply concerned by the adoption of this amendment. It is yet another dangerous step towards autocracy in Hungary.

EPP has once again chosen to align with the far right - this time to undermine 🇪🇺 Parliament’s long-standing call for a dedicated budget of at least €20 billion for the EU Child Guarantee. That’s a scandal! Read more here 👉 socialistsanddemocrats.eu/newsroom/sds...

Today we enter the fourth year of Russia’s war on Ukraine. Peace and security for Ukraine is a matter of security for the entire European continent. Therefore, 🇺🇦 & 🇪🇺 must sit at the negotiation table! Ukraine and Europe want peace, but any peace agreement has to be comprehensive, just and lasting.
