How many times do we need a techbro to prove to us that just because you can pretend to run a company doesn't mean that you can pretend to run a country?

If our societies were full of people even half as brave as these women, we'd be living in a much better place today.

This is a new low even for Trump. Ukrainians are the largest refugee group in the world thanks to Moscow's imperial delusions. Delusions western countries ignored for years. I'm glad that at least in Europe Ukrainians can live freely and feel safe - in the actual free world.

This is Europe's moment to prove itself on the world stage. The decisions we take now will determine whether the future we hand over to the next generation will be one of prosperity or one of tyrants.

It is time for Europeans to stand united and stronger than ever 🇪🇺🛡️

JEF Europe welcomes the recent joint statement by the leaders of the European Parliament's centrist groups. In an increasingly uncertain world, Europe needs to stand behind #Ukraine and focus on our defence capabilities. However, we will have to be more ambitious!

🇺🇦 It's been 10 years since Minsk II and we've only seen more war, more death and more lies from the Kremlin.

#Ukraine needs real security guarantees which ensure Russia could never threaten it again. Appeasement will never work with Putin, he must be forced to make concessions.

🇷🇴 35 years since the citizens of Timișoara rose up against the inhumane communist regime of Ceaușescu and marked the beginning of the Romanian Revolution.

The main message of that revolution remains relevant today- "Copiii noștri vor fi liberi" (Our children will be free).

Concrete action and political will have been absent for decades among the Member States.

We must shake the EU out of its lethargy.

The EU must strengthen its own defence, ensuring that we can defend ourselves.
