W obliczu tragicznego zamachu moje myśli i serce są z poszkodowanymi, ich bliskimi oraz wszystkimi mieszkańcami Krakowa. Składam najszczersze wyrazy współczucia rodzinom ofiar. Dziękuję bohaterskim funkcjonariuszom policji za działanie z narażeniem życia. Europa łączy się z Polską w bólu i solidarności.

Today, we celebrate Marie Skłodowska-Curie's birthday and her remarkable achievements: the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first scientist to win it in two different categories, and the only laureate in two scientific fields. Her name lives on through the EU's Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, supporting researchers across Europe and beyond, helping advance scientific discovery. 👏 Here's to Marie and the next generation of scientific pioneers!

We preliminarily found that TikTok’s ‘For You’ feed has a harmful design. It shows users endless and repeated exposure of personalised videos, even when those have a negative effect on mental health. While TikTok has implemented measures to mitigate this risk, we consider them insufficiently effective and call for readjustment. 🔗link.europa.eu/Tpc7kc

Europe must not only remain the place of great scientific discoveries. It must be the place where those discoveries create new industries. This will determine our competitiveness and our prosperity. My keynote address at the WinWin Brussels Summit → link.europa.eu/4WJvRD

There is no democracy without press freedom. On International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists, and beyond, we stand by all those who speak truth to power.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This post is full of hypocrisy. The EU sanctioned several journalists in the last years, without charge, without a hearing, without legal proceedings, f.e. Jacques Baud or Hüseyin Doğru. taz.de/Der-Fall-Jacqu…

Journalists shine a light on injustice and hold those in power to account. They must be able to do so without fear.

Ce qui définit un pays aujourd'hui n'est pas sa place sur une carte. Ce sont les valeurs qu’il défend. Et l’avenir qu’il souhaite bâtir avec les autres. C’est ce qui rend l’Europe et le Canada si proches. A Montréal nous ouvrons un tout nouveau chapitre de notre histoire commune.
