We will never forget the horror of the Hamas attacks on 7 October and the pain they caused to innocent victims, their families and the entire people of Israel, two years ago.

We honour their memory by working tirelessly for peace.

Deal on reducing pollution in EU groundwater and surface waters.

Jessika Roswall @jessikaroswall.ec.europa.eu · 15d

We have a deal!
Today’s agreement is a big step towards cleaner water for all Europeans. Restricting PFAS, pesticides and hazardous chemicals will boost health, protect nature and strengthen our economy.
Clean water is key to resilience.

Today, together with President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu and my Commissioner colleagues, I had the chance to exchange with industry leaders on this.

3/3 Samtidigt måste vi stärka vår konkurrenskraft, resiliens och oberoende för att säkra ett tryggt, säkert och hållbart Europa.

2/3 Mitt i krigets mörker i Ukraina, ryska drönare över polskt luftrum och det fruktansvärda lidandet i Gaza måste Europa stå starkt och enat. Demokratin och rättsstaten är vår starkaste försvarslinje – att försvara människovärdet är vårt gemensamma ansvar.

The European Union will continue to push for a stronger, binding agreement that safeguards public health, protects our environment, and builds a clean, competitive, and circular economy. We do this not only for ourselves, but for the generations yet to come.
