Yesterday, former Mayor of #Izmir Tunç Soyer and 60 others were imprisoned. Today, a crackdown began: police detained CHP mayors of #Adana, #Adiyaman, and #Antalya. Democratic institutions in Turkey are under serious threat. What is the #EU doing? #CHP #Turkey #RuleOfLaw

Stop repressions against CHP 🇹🇷! Now: criminal prosecution against Özgür Özel. This is not normal. I met with Özgür Özel two weeks ago again. He stands for courage and leadership. We stand on his side and the side of all democractic forces in #Türkiye! 🇹🇷🇪🇺

🇪🇺A un agricultor español le diría que sus productos están mejor protegidos dentro de la UE que fuera. La UE protege nuestros intereses cuando los retos superan la capacidad de un Estado miembro, como una guerra arancelaria, o como fue la pandemia. 🗣️Nacho Sánchez Amor 📺euronews español

Cada país de la OTAN tiene que examinar cómo le condiciona la inversión del 5% de su PIB y qué va a sacrificar. Nadie nos ha explicado las virtudes de esta cifra mágica. La postura de Pedro Sánchez ha sido lógica y defiende los intereses nacionales. 🗣️Nacho Sánchez Amor

La UE tiene el síndome de Chamberlain: apaciguar a los líderes autoritarios. Los dobles estándares de la UE son la metástasis de la incoherencia de su Política Exterior. Es el caso de Israel. Aquí el dilema es suspender un Acuerdo de Asociación. En Gaza, es ver morir a los

Shameful attitude of European Commission towards a #EPlenary debate on, nothing less, #MiddleEast Kaja Kallas absent, her substitute Jessika Roswall arrives late &has to be substituted by Wopke Hoekstra &she concludes with just 1 minute of verbosity What a disrespect to European Parliament

The irony: In this ruling, ECHR CEDH finds a 4-year delay by 🇹🇷 Constitutional Court in ruling on pre-trial detention violates Article 5 § 4 (right to prompt review). Yet the ECtHR itself has not ruled on an application on article 5 lodged on 10/11/2016. Justice delayed is

🚫Appeasement towards authoritarianism should not guide EU foreign policy. Double standards are damaging to credibility - and cost lives every day in #Gaza. The EU Council must choose how it goes down in history: either as Chamberlain, or Churchill. ➡️youtu.be/7V3pBXqiwOY

Nacho Sánchez Amor EU Council Dear Nacho Sánchez Amor, Your recent statement — calling out double standards and urging moral clarity in EU foreign policy regarding #Gaza — is both powerful and necessary.

Dear Ministers of EU Council: Is not (only) about “more trucks”, it’s (above all) “less corpses”, no corpses at all. Are we working with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation & their American mercenaries? Don’t add shame to our genetic weakness. This late agreement it’s a mere gag on your mouths

Más allá de los mensajes del Mark Rutte a Trump, la colaboración 🇪🇺-NATO es bienvenida. Pero: 1⃣¿Es compatible que un miembro OTAN solicite entrar en los BRIC? 2⃣ 🇹🇷 debe entender que ser miembro de la #UE va sobre democracia, no capacidad militar youtu.be/P2uOp04yIMs
