RO MFA strongly reiterates 🇷🇴 steadfast position in support of the sovereignty, teritorial integrity and independence of Ukraine within its internationally recognized borders. This position is clear and rooted in international law, national interest and a long lasting values-based foreign policy.
Journalists have as of today an ally that protects them, strengthens their independence & helps them face challenges. #EMFA is a landmark & solid piece of legislation. No journalist should ever fear pressure of any sorts when doing their job and informing the citizens.

67 #MEPs on the 2-year anniversary of the heroic efforts of the people of #Ukraine in defence of Ukraine and Europe, call for imposing a total economic embargo on #Russia
and setting up an international tribunal to bring the aggressor and his accomplices to justice. #24Feb2022
We celebrate today #112Day2024. In case of emergency you can dial 112 free of charge anywhere in the European Union @112_sos. Dear first responders, thank you for your courageous never ending drive to help others!
I open the weekend edition of @elmundoes, the 2nd most read newspaper in #Spain, with an article about the Anti-Corruption Directive, for which I am the @Europarl_EN rapporteur.
Congratulations, @valeriehayer, for becoming the new president of @RenewEurope group in the @Europarl_EN. Looking forward to working with such a great woman and leadership model. We are stronger together!
A strong #AML package is what the EU citizens expect from us. With the new package, we took strong steps fwd in ensuring access to beneficial ownership registers for journalists&civil society, ensuring a strong cooperation framework for FIUs & protecting our citizens' money.
#MediaFreedomAct is reality. We made it. This is recognition of a work which safeguards our democracy and values every day. Protecting media freedom & media workers is a duty. They deserve it.
To Daphne, Jan and all true watchdogs of a free world.
Excellent exchange today with the @EUombudsman, Emily O'Reilly, on the latest developments around the Anti-corruption Directive, as well as good administration, accountability & transparency in the #EU institutions & agencies.
Not organizing a proper hearing on the Art. 7 procedure regarding #Hungary during the current @eu2023es would be a missed opportunity for defending RoL. On the side of the EP, we will continue to push for respect of #EU values by the Orban Gov.. We owe it to the HU citizens.
Thank you @EP_Justice for inviting @FM_Farrington and I to present our study on SLAPPs today.
As @RamonaStrugariu, @jeroen_lenaers and others noted in discussion, it's essential that an anti-SLAPP Directive provide strong remedies for all SLAPPs with cross-border implications.
6y after #Daphne's death the people who ordered her assassination are still free. This shows how deeply infiltrated these criminals are in the Gov. structures of #Malta. We shall not be silent until impunity ends and the master minds behind this murder are put in jail.
Maltese authorities must deliver justice for Daphne Caruana Galizia!
We criticize the fact that justice has still not been served & condemn the flawed situation of the #ruleoflaw, corruption & safety of journalists.

I arrived in Bucharest, Romania, for talks with @KlausIohannis and to strengthen our good-neighborly relations.
Ukraine is grateful for Romania’s support, which strengthens our state, as well as its constructive solidarity, which enables our nations to be security donors for the world, notably in food security.
We have already built and can expand cooperation that sustains stability for many other nations.
We will discuss further security cooperation, developing aviation and other coalitions, strengthening Ukraine’s air defense, the Black Sea security architecture, and our relations with partners.
Romania is a friend who came to our help on our darkest day and whose support gets stronger with time. I am certain this visit will be beneficial for both of our nations.
#EMFA has to be a strong ally for free media. Independent journalists need a robust legal framework protecting their work, their sources, their freedom & securing their role as guardians of democracy. Democracy will never survive in the darkness of the unspoken truth
"The future of the Rep. of #Moldova 🇲🇩 is in the European Union!" For me, this is the most important message for #EU enlargement policy today in the #SOTEU address. Then let's open the chapters for Moldova's accession & start working towards this goal.
#NoMeansNo! I welcome the strong support shown by the @EU_Commission’s president @vonderleyen for the gender equality & combatting violence agst women, during the #SOTEU address. It’s time to put women&girls at the heart of the #EU, when addressing inequality&economic instability
