Honoured to attend the commemorations of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution in Budapest. 70 years ago, Hungarians rose up against oppression. They fought for freedom, democracy and justice. The very values at the heart of Europe today. Their courage lives on.

The martyrs of 1956 gave their lives for freedom. Their memory reminds us that the triumph of democracy is not inevitable. Every generation must fight to renew our freedoms and reenergise our democracy ↓ xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1yxBePgvX…

The right to peaceful protest must be fully respected. Any allegations of excessive, unlawful and disproportionate use of force must be promptly, thoroughly and independently investigated, with law enforcement acting at all times in a proportionate manner. Albania’s future lies in a democratic, prosperous, and European path, with an accountable government, the rule of law, fight of corruption and a future of opportunity at home. Any unlawful violence and attacks from all sides, especially against property and personal integrity, have no place in a democracy as the current tensions have to be addressed through dialogue, de-escalation and democratic engagement. The voice of young people must be heard and their right to peacefully protests protected.

We strongly condemn the Russian drone attacks on merchant ships off Bulgaria’s coast. This is unacceptable, threatening Black Sea security & putting lives at risk. We stand firmly with Bulgaria, thank the rescuers, and call for concrete action to protect people, ships and waters.

At the #OSCEPA Autumn Meeting in Andorra, parliamentarians addressed key challenges to peace, security and democratic stability. The EPP & Likeminded Group met to discuss its political priorities and the future leadership of the Assembly. The Group officially endorsed @GudrunKugler as its candidate for OSCE PA President in 2027, backing her vision for a stronger, more united and effective Assembly. Congratulations!

Today marks three years since the terrorist attacks of 7 October in Israel. We honour the victims and stand with the families who still carry the heavy weight of grief. We remember the young lives cut short at a music festival. And the long ordeal of the hostages. The EU stands with all those whose lives were forever changed by that day. The unspeakable savagery and terror of 7 October must never happen again. The EU remains ready to help turn today’s fragile ceasefire into a durable peace, based on a two-state solution. And remains equally convinced that nothing justifies terror.

🇧🇦 Strong results for the EPP family across Bosnia and Herzegovina, with our parties as key forces in shaping the country’s next chapter. Special congratulations to HDZ BiH Vice-President @FilipovicD_ on her historic election as Croat Member of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Her historic success is a powerful inspiration for women in politics across the region. The clear mandate from the voters goes hand in hand with a strong responsibility to move the country forward on the European path. Looking forward to working together!

The cost of living, high energy prices, inflation—people feel the pressure every day. Europe has to answer and work for people. The Single Market is one of Europe’s greatest successes. Now we must take the next step — digital, services, energy, capital markets.

It may sound technical but it means well-paid jobs, economic strength & social security for all of us. And in uncertain times, we need stronger partnerships with those who believe in fair, rules-based trade. Strong at home. Ready for the future. #EPP50

36 years ago, Germany reunited in freedom. A historic achievement for Germany, and a defining moment for a Europe becoming whole again. Every leader understood that German unity and European unity belonged together. And that path remains our responsibility today: overcoming divisions, strengthening democracy and keeping Europe united around freedom, peace and the rule of law.

In these volatile times, Latvian citizens can count on @Jauna_Vienotiba to defend democracy, strengthen security, and uphold shared European values. As Latvia heads to the polls, we wish the best of luck to Vienotība, the party of Europe and a staunch supporter of Ukraine.
