More European companies will benefit from simpler rules and less red tape.

@Europarl_EN and @EUCouncil have reached an agreement to introduce a new category of businesses: small mid-cap companies.

This will help growing enterprises scale up, innovate, create new jobs and stay competitive.

Thanks to the Chairs of @EP_Economics @AuroreLalucq, @EP_Environment @PierMaran and @EP_Justice @zarzalejosj, Rapporteurs @NielsFlemming01, Mariateresa Vivaldini, @lukasmandl & @vigenin, and all of @Europarl_EN team for securing this important deal with @CY2026EU.

Welcome to @Europarl_EN, President @WilliamsRuto 🇪🇺🇰🇪

Kenya is a key partner and trusted ally of the EU as we strengthen EU-Kenya cooperation, boost trade and investment, and create new opportunities for our citizens.

This is Europe’s enlargement moment 🇪🇺

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

Thank you to the President of Montenegro @JakovMilatovic for the very warm welcome to the EU–Western Balkans Summit here in the beautiful town of Tivat 🇪🇺🇲🇪

The future of Europe and the Western Balkans must be one and the same.

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

Today’s EU-Western Balkans Summit in Tivat, Montenegro, is different.

We are no longer only talking about enlargement.

We are doing it.

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

Enlargement makes Europe stronger, fairer, safer and more united.

In Tivat, the message is clear: it's time to make it happen.

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

Stort tillykke til Mette Frederiksen, som fortsætter som Danmarks @Statsmin.

Jeg ser frem til at fortsætte vores samarbejde i denne vigtige tid for Europa.

Sammen kan vi gøre Europa stærkere, sikrere og styrke Europas rolle i verden 🇪🇺🇩🇰

Touchdown in Montenegro ahead of the EU-Western Balkans Summit.

Thank you to the President of @SkupstinaCG @AndrijaMandicDF for the invitation to address the people of Montenegro from Parliament.

Montenegro can count on @Europarl_EN’s continued support on its path towards EU membership 🇪🇺🇲🇪

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

EU membership for Montenegro must become a reality.

Honoured to address its Parliament @SkupstinaCG 🇪🇺🇲🇪 https://t.co/mAByC2KB3U

Thank you President Enrique Barón Crespo for a very interesting discussion on the book Paz y Guerra at @Europarl_EN today.

A timely reminder that Europe’s greatest leaps forward have always begun with people brave enough to look ahead.

That is as true today as ever.

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

Honoured to welcome back five former Presidents of @Europarl_EN today who not only helped shape our Parliament, but also strengthened its role as the democratic heart of Europe.

Thank you for your service 🇪🇺

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

An effective migration and asylum policy must be matched by a credible return policy.

This evening's deal on the new Returns Regulation - that complements the Pact on Migration and Asylum - will make the return of migrants with no right to stay in the EU faster and more consistent across Europe.

Thanks to @EP_Justice Rapporteur @zarzalejosj, Rapporteur @MalikAzmani, and all the @Europarl_EN team for reaching this agreement with @EUCouncil and @CY2026EU.

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

On behalf of @Europarl_EN, I want to express our complete solidarity with the people of Romania and with all those affected by the Russian drone that smashed into an apartment building in Galați this morning.

Europe stands united in the face of Russia's escalation.

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

ASML is a European success story of perseverance, innovation and research that we can all be proud of. 

They have changed the global game in semiconductors and microchip technology that powers Artificial Intelligence and so much more. 

This is Europe 🇪🇺

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

Congratulations @AndrisKulbergs on your election as Latvia’s new Prime Minister.

At a time when Europe’s security - especially that of Latvia and the Baltic states - faces growing challenges, we must stand together to keep our people safe and strengthen our shared resilience.

The people of Latvia can count on Europe 🇪🇺🇱🇻

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

Loved spending time, discussing and listening to European tech leaders and operators based in Silicon Valley.

It was important to hear their experiences and perspectives on how Europe can become more competitive, support startups to scale, and help companies grow - and what we can do to keep attracting talent to the EU.

We will keep flying Europe's flag high 🇪🇺

San Francisco is home to so many Europeans and EU companies.

Thank you to Mayor @DanielLurie for the very warm welcome here and for our very good discussions today as we keep our conversation going on tech, trade and the transatlantic relationship 🇪🇺🇺🇸

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

Great to connect with @Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg in Palo Alto to discuss the next frontiers in Artificial Intelligence development and the work MEPs are doing in the @Europarl_EN to protect vulnerable users online, tackle disinformation, boost innovation and competitiveness, and support the digital economy.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

Honored to have @EP_President Metsola @Stanford today! Europe is lucky to have such a fantastic leader.
