[Irish Presidency of the Council of the EU 2026 @Ireland2026eu]

On 1 July, Ireland takes over the Presidency of the Council of the EU for the 8th time.

In an uncertain world, our strength is reinforced when we stand together.

In Ireland, the seanfhocal or proverb “Ní neart go cur le chéile” reminds us that we have “Strength with unity”.

@elonmusk Ignorance and arrogance go hand in hand!

From being the closest USSR ally to becoming a part of the Eurozone! 36 years bumpy but worthy journey.

Bulgaria has made good progress towards economic convergence with the euro area.

This paves the way for Bulgaria to adopt the euro as of 1 January 2026 and become the 21st EU Member State to join the euro area, says Chief Economist Philip R. Lane.

@DimitarBechev Is the left-right clivage suitable to explain attitudes towards both wars?

[Assen Indjiev @AIndjiev]

@DimitarBechev Even Vucic's suit did not help.

@banderafella Except there was NO agreement not to expand eastwards.

Gorbachev himself confirms it. Those saying there was are pushing lies.

[Visegrád 24 @visegrad24]

Exactly 3 years have passed since this speech.

On the evening of February 23rd, hours before the Russian invasion, Zelensky delivered a speech to the Russian public in Russian. He urged them to rein back Putin:

“If your army attacks us, they will see our faces, not our backs”

[Jessica Berlin @berlin_bridge]

Dear Europe: Stop freaking out over the Trump team and start learning their language. Your current response just plays into Trump and Putin’s hands.

Moldova, today you are victorious. Together, we’ve shown the strength of our unity, democracy, and commitment to a dignified future.

Thank you, dear Moldovans, at home and abroad. Walk with pride—you are freedom, hope, and resilience. I am proud to serve you all.

@DefenceU I stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦

[Assen Indjiev @AIndjiev]

@Al_Stoyanov Не, Молдова все пак направи правилния избор. Интересно ще бъде и в Грузия. 🇪🇺

@QBozhankov Някой от партия 'Възраждане' ходил ли е на посещение при тях? В Москва бяха, видяхме.

[Assen Indjiev @AIndjiev]

@MarkovDarkov @terziev Има, за съжаление! Поздрави от Брюксел.

[Dmytro Kuleba @DmytroKuleba]

Thank you for your call, dear @JosepBorrellF. I sincerely appreciate our joint work and close friendship. You have been there for Ukraine in every critical moment.

You were the first colleague I spoke to on February 24th, 2022, Europe's darkest morning in this century. And you have always been the first to step in and help Ukraine when bold decisions were required.

I remember you saying in 2022, "Total Russian war against Ukraine means total EU support for Ukraine." On numerous occasions, I have witnessed you living by this motto.

No words can fully express the impact of your decisions on Europe's strength and long-term security. Thank you for your bold leadership, historical contribution, and for being my good friend.
