Hungary has chosen Europe.
Europe has always chosen Hungary.
A country reclaims its European path.
The Union grows stronger.
Magyarország Európát választotta.
Európa mindig Magyarországot választotta.
Egy ország visszatér az európai útjára.
Az Unió erősebbé válik.
The Holocaust is a stain on humankind-and a call for reflection and active responsibility. We all share the duty to preserve its memory and to act on the lessons it teaches us through our choices and actions every day.
As we mark Holocaust Remembrance Day, the alarming rise of antisemitism worldwide reinforces our determination to reject all forms of hatred. No conflict or political argument can ever justify distorting, minimising, or denying the darkest chapter in Europe’s history, as President @vonderleyen has rightly said.
Keeping the memory alive is a shared commitment-by telling the truth, educating future generations, and standing firm against antisemitism and all forms of hate, today and always.
Delighted to welcome colleagues from #EU and likeminded states to showcase our support for peace building and discuss how to complement each other's work.
I call on the Hungarian authorities to allow the Budapest Pride to go ahead.
Without fear of any criminal or administrative sanctions against the organisers or participants.
To the LGBTIQ+ community in Hungary and beyond:
I will always be your ally.
Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.
We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.
Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.
Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people.
Be strong, be brave, be fearless.
You are never alone, dear President @ZelenskyyUa.
We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.
Honoured to join a panel of ambassadors to discuss diplomacy in times of crisis at the Eastern Mediterranean International School EMIS. It was inspiring to engage with smart & engaged students from all over the world: a model for coexistence & peace, a ray of hope for the future
The European Union's Special Representative for Human Rights @EamonGilmore is currently visiting the region. We were glad that he was also able to participate in the Tel Aviv #Pride Parade today. Watch his special message:
>> to instill in them values of tolerance, equality and coexistence, through a shared love for the beautiful game. We applaud all efforts to fight against racism and bigotry, especially in places where football and peaceful coexistence don't always go hand in hand. Yalla Hapoel!
⚽️ Hapoel Jerusalem 6 - Team Europe 1
Despite the crushing defeat, ambassadors and diplomats from the EU and its Member States had a great time playing against the coaches of @HapoelJLMfc' Neighbourhood League. Hapoel brings together Jewish and Arab kids from all backgrounds >>
Happy #EuropeDay! Last night we gathered with our friends to celebrate the European Union, the values it stands for, and its partnership with the people of Israel. Thanks to @LiorSuchard, Jerusalem Orchestra East & West, and all the others for the amazing cultural program! 🇪🇺🤝🇮🇱
I condemn the terror attack that took place tonight in the heart of Tel Aviv. I understand there are at least three injured, one in critical condition. Wishing speedy and full recovery to those injured. Too much blood has been spilled, the cycle of violence has to stop!

Jointly with @SwedeninIL & EU ambassadors in Israel, we marked #InternationalWomensDay with a timely discussion on gender equality and representation in Israel with experts from @itachmaaki. A lot of work ahead of us in 🇪🇺 and 🇮🇱: women's rights cannot be taken for granted.
1/One year ago, Russia launched its brutal, unprovoked & illegal invasion of Ukraine. Since the very first day, the EU and its Member States have been standing firm with Ukrainian people in words and deeds. We mark this solemn day jointly with the 🇪🇺 and 🇺🇦 ambassadors in Israel.
Congratulations to the Israeli NGOs that were awarded EU grants for various projects on human rights and democracy! It was a pleasure hosting you and learning more about the important work you do. The EU is proud of its support for civil society, in Israel and around the globe.
