We all share one goal: a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.
At this week’s European Council, EU leaders agreed to support Ukraine with €90 billion over 2026–2027 through EU borrowing on the capital markets.
A clear commitment to Ukraine and to the European project.

Always happy to engage with Finnish MPs, this time with Defence Committee 🇫🇮
Finland is a perfect example where defence readiness is a 'whole society' mission.
Europe faces increasing security challenges. Everyone in the EU will need contribute to European security.

Because enlargement is a win-win for Europe and the Western Balkans.

Happy 70th birthday to the European flag 🇪🇺
Back in 1955, the Council of Europe reviewed more than 100 designs, and chose this one as the winner.
The 12 stars stand for completeness, not countries. The design was chosen so it wouldn’t change with borders or new members.

Our financing proposals are on the table.
The goal is a strong Ukraine, on the battlefield & at the negotiating table.
