Had a very productive discussion with 🇫🇷 Minister Annie Genevard on enhancing food safety and protecting European farmers: improved import checks, stronger standards alignment, and tackling pesticide residues. A level playing field remains crucial.


Glad to have exchanged with Adam Jarubas as well — looking forward to our cooperation on strengthening health across Europe.

Fruitful first meeting and open discussion with 🇧🇷 Minister Carlos Fávaro. We should work together to better combat and prevent animal diseases affecting all of us.

Met with EURORDIS-Rare Diseases Europe to discuss how we can accelerate innovation and deliver new treatments faster to all Europeans living with rare diseases. Moving forward decisively on the #BiotechAct, #ERNs, and #CMA will be key to making this a reality. #RareDiseases



At my meeting with EU Structural Heart Disease Coalition, I confirmed the EU Cardiovascular Action plan will not leave behind the millions of citizens with diseases like heart valve problems. Early detection and proper treatment is key for them, with special focus on women, who deserve more attention.
