The Special #EUCO is starting.

The only way forward is growth, competitiveness and reaching our digital and green ambitions.

At #EUCO , I called for a deepened Single Market.

To do this, we must increase productivity, speed-up investments in own industrial capabilities, and reduce strategic dependencies.

Την απερίφραστη καταδίκη της επίθεσης που δέχτηκε το Ισραήλ από το Ιράν θα συνοδεύει η παρότρυνση όλων των μελών του #EUCO να κάνουμε ό,τι περνά από το χέρι μας, προκειμένου η κρίση αυτή να εκτονωθεί, να μην επεκταθεί και να μην αποκτήσει χαρακτηριστικά περιφερειακής σύγκρουσης.

At #EUCO doorstep I emphasized that we must not lose our focus on Ukraine.

🇺🇦 needs military support now - air defense systems, artillery shells, missiles, ammunition.

I called on 🇪🇺 leaders to implement our own decisions on defense support to 🇺🇦. Let's speed up our efforts!

🎙️ 'We have to do everything to defend our democracy.'

Finland’s Prime Minister Petteri Orpo hosted the traditional #NBIP8 meeting ahead of the special European Council #EUCO

Strong support for Ukraine was the main topic of discussion. Always a pleasure to meet colleagues 🇫🇮🇸🇪🇩🇰🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹🇮🇪🇵🇱

My message to EU leaders: let's demonstrate the will to defeat Russian aggression.

Israel’s success in intercepting Iran’s attack shows the power of cooperation and help from partners. It must also remind us to help Ukraine. They are under daily drone and missile attacks.

#EUCO conclusions on #Ukraine adopted 👇

#EUCO 17 April 2024 in #Brussels .

Στο έκτακτο Ευρωπαϊκό Συμβούλιο θα μας απασχολήσουν πρωτίστως ζητήματα εξωτερικής πολιτικής, αλλά και θέματα που αφορούν την ανταγωνιστικότητα της ευρωπαϊκής οικονομίας. #EUCO primeminister.gr/2024/04/17/340…

#EUCO conclusions on Middle East 👇

To defend peace & democracy, we must reinforce our security & defence structures, intensify the delivery of equipment that Ukraine desperately needs.

At the same time we must be ready to counter Russia's attempts to interfere with our democratic decision-making processes.

'Our Ukrainian sky and the sky of our neighbours [🇮🇱] deserve the same security...all lives are equally valuable,' 🇺🇦President Zelenskyy told 🇪🇺 #EUCO leaders tonight.

'Unfortunately, we do not have the same level of [Western] defence that we all saw in [Israel] a few days ago.'

Russian interference in electoral processes across Europe is happening as we speak.

They intend to disrupt our democracies.

Together with Petr Fiala we will bring this to the table of #EUCO

Arrived in Brussels. The urgency of our #EUCO leaders' discussions regarding assistance to Ukraine and its air defence is even more underlined by continuous bombardment by Russia of Chernihiv and other 🇺🇦 cities. We must act to support 🇺🇦 defence efforts and protect innocents.

New website, same EUobserver — and just in time for #EUCO

Estonian 🇪🇪 PM Kaja Kallas before the EUCO 🇪🇺 meeting: look through your warehouses and stocks and send weapons and ammunition to Ukraine and send them now. We should not forget that we have the resources, the economic might. Let’s not be afraid of our own power.
