Heartbreaking to see the people of Cyprus face yet another wildfire emergency.

Utøya. Oslo. July 22.

We remember. We grieve. We resist hate.

14 years later, we honour the 77 lives lost, so many of them young. Their names and dreams live on in our memory.

We stand with the survivors and recommit to fighting extremism.

Proud that today @europarl.europa.eu hosts NATO's Rose-Roth Seminar, bringing together parliamentarians & policy makers at Europe's House of Democracy.

Facing unprecedented challenges to democracy worldwide & the global security order, we must step up our commitment to protect people.

Europe is open for business.

Addressing business leaders, my message was that @europarl.europa.eu understands that they need a stable and predictable framework to invest, scale & succeed.

That is why we are simplifying procedures & taking the necessary steps to make it easier for our industry.

Parliaments are engines of democracy worldwide.

They put people at the heart of political systems, hold governments to account & help shape a better future.

Let's strengthen collaboration & dialogue between Parliaments to build a better, more equal world.

Today, the European Accessibility Act, championed by @europarl.europa.eu, enters into force.

It's a milestone that will ensure so many products and services are made accessible for people with disabilities.

We will keep building a Europe for everyone.

To deliver for people, Europe must keep reforming.

We must keep delivering with speed - to make lives easier for people, to give predictability to businesses, to become more SME-friendly, to ensure security in Europe.

That is what a smarter, stronger, safer Europe looks like.

Europe must keep supporting Ukraine.

And at the same time maintain the momentum towards merit-based enlargement.

That is the smartest investment in Europe's stability, prosperity and peace.

Peace may be difficult but not impossible.

My message to EU leaders is that Europe's engagement in the Middle East is essential. For broad de-escalation, the Israel-Iran ceasefire to hold, a ceasefire in Gaza, humanitarian aid to get in, for the release of hostages, and sustainable & lasting peace.

Every euro of EU funds must deliver for people: in a transparent, effective and accountable way.

With @euauditors.bsky.social President Tony Murphy, I updated him on @europarl.europa.eu‘s vote calling for an extension of EU recovery funding to ensure that no investments will be lost.
