Today, we held the 16th annual EU-Israel High Level Seminar to combat antisemitism and foster Jewish life.
It is a good opportunity to discuss current threats, challenges & opportunities to counter antisemitism and foster Jewish life.

Antisemitism has no place in Europe.

Good exhange with representatives from religious and non-confessional organisations on the challenges of ethical and social impact of AI in the context of the Art 17 dialogue. AI needs to remain human-centric supported by an EU regulaltory framework.

Herzliche Gratulation an Portugal & Österreich zur erfolgreichen Wahl in den UN-Sicherheitsrat!

[Magnus Brunner @magnusbrunner]

This is what citizens expect – and this is what we are delivering.

[Magnus Brunner @magnusbrunner]

Today’s agreement on new return rules marks an important step in the reform of the European migration management system. With the new rules, we have more control over who can come to the EU, who can stay, and who needs to leave.

For 40 years, the EU flag has symbolised peace, freedom and unity in diversity. From passports and euro banknotes to sports events and city halls, it is one of Europe’s most important symbols.

Gestern war ich zu Gast beim Europaforum Wachau. Das diesjährige Motto: „The Next 30“.
Wenn wir heute die richtigen Entscheidungen treffen, wird Europa auch in 30 Jahren ein Kontinent des Wohlstands, der Sicherheit und der Stabilität sein. Danke für die Einladung!

[Magnus Brunner @magnusbrunner]

We just kicked off the 3rd Trilogue on the Return Regulation. People with no right to stay in the European Union must be returned effectively. This is what the new rules will provide: more control over who can come to the EU, who can stay, and who must leave.

[Magnus Brunner @magnusbrunner]

Today I joined the Med9 Conference of Ministers of Interior in Croatia. We discussed the next steps in delivering the largest reform of the European asylum and migration system to date.

[Magnus Brunner @magnusbrunner]

With stronger external borders, swifter and more efficient asylum procedures, and closer cooperation with partner countries, we are on the right track. And trust between Member States is growing.
There is still a lot of work ahead, so we cannot loose focus.

[Magnus Brunner @magnusbrunner]

Stronger external borders make the Schengen area more resilient and safe. We need to continue on this path to keep it going and growing.

[EU Home Affairs @EUHomeAffairs]
