Productive meeting with Green 10 today, discussing steps towards a greener, more sustainable future. Looking forward to future discussions.

On 1st January 1995, Austria, Finland, and Sweden joined the European Union. Since then, they have enriched our European culture and way of life. And Europe has made them stronger. Happy 30 years in the EU family to Austrians, Finns and Swedes!

1995 blev Sverige en del av EU. När vi ser tillbaka på dessa 30 år står det helt klart att Sverige har vunnit på att vara en del av unionen. Läs gärna min debattartikel i Dagens industri di.se/debatt/eu-medl…

All continents will have to deal with the growing burden of climate change. Its impact is impossible to ignore. The Paris Agreement continues to be humanity’s best hope. Europe will stay the course. And we’ll keep working with all nations that want to stop global warming.

What happened today in Örebro is truly horrifying. Such violence and terror have no place in our societies—least of all in schools. In this dark hour, we stand with the people of Sweden. Our thoughts are with the victims, and we wish them strength and a swift recovery.

The blue and yellow of Ukraine. The colours of resistance against imperialism. On the eve of this grim anniversary, they adorn our building as a symbol of our unflinching support for the Ukrainian people. Our brave neighbours, partners, and future EU members.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.
