Populisten erzählen den Leuten Unsinn, von dem sie glauben, dass er sie populär macht.
Wir brauchen integre, ehrliche und kompetente Politiker, die Probleme anpacken und lösen wollen - selbst wenn es manchmal unpopuläre Schritte erfordert.

Bevor Progressive im kollektiven Weltschmerz erstarren:

Rechtspopulisten und Rechtsextreme sind im Aufwind, aber nicht unbesiegbar und nicht überall erfolgreich.

Großbritannien, Polen, Brasilien oder Moldau etwa gehen in die andere Richtung.

Fortschritte sind immer nur temporär und wir müssen ständig weiter für sie eintreten.

Politik ist so ein undankbares Geschäft. Die Grünen haben in den letzen 5 Jahren Politik deutlich über ihrem Gewicht gemacht und in Umwelt, Klima, Justiz, Transparenz viel weiter gebracht. Dafür stürzen sie von 14 auf 8% ab. Man muss schon ein großer Idealist sein um sich das anzutun.

In solidarity we prepare, and united we stand.

We are boosting our preparedness against wildfires through the #rescEU fleet and a strategic pre-positioning of firefighters. This means:

→ 24 aeroplanes and 4 helicopters hosted by ten EU countries;
→ 550+ firefighters from twelve countries on standby.

We have also allocated €600 million that will facilitate the acquisition of 12 new firefighting planes and several helicopters in the future.

200 candles today for our Ode to Joy!

The European Union’s anthem turns 2⃣0⃣0⃣ today and it is time to celebrate Ludwig van Beethoven’s masterpiece!

Composed in 1824, the excerpt from the prelude to Beethoven's Ninth Symphony was adopted as the anthem of the EU in 1985 and is one of the most known symbols of our unity. It speaks volumes through its melody, embodying the shared European ideals of freedom, peace, and solidarity.

One anthem, a whole Union. Happy birthday, Ode to joy!

#EuropeDay

What happens in Ukraine will shape the future of our Union forever. 

People of Ukraine are carrying this heavy burden on their shoulders for all of us and paying the ultimate price every day for that.

They have made their European choice and we have made our Ukrainian choice.

And the decisions we will take in the next months will decide who wins the future of Europe. 

So together, let us stay united. Let us stay strong with Ukraine. And let us stay ambitious on enlargement and reform.

Dabei würden von richtig gemachtem Klimaschutz gerade die weniger Verdienenden profitieren, wenn man die Einnahmen aus dem CO2-Preis den Menschen zurück gibt: #Klimageld. Denn in der Realität sind die Wohlhabenden diejenigen mit den hohen Emissionen.
