Agriculture & food is a portfolio very close to people's hearts. Tonight’s candid exchange demonstrated that.

Should I receive the trust of @europarl_EN, this dialogue will guide my action as Commissioner for Agriculture and Food.

[Christophe Hansen @CHansenEU]

Honoured and humbled to have received the trust of @LucFrieden and the Luxembourgish government to be nominated as candidate to serve in the team of @vonderleyen in the next @EU_Commission .

New blog post: The case for criminalizing scientific misconduct.

If misconduct delayed treatments for Alzheimer’s by just 1 year, it would have cost us 36 million QALYs (Quality Adjusted Life Years), more than Americans lost in World War II. https://t.co/6uixvCAvvV

@darugani2000 @24augst Interessant dass dat Ganzt Kleedergedeessems just FRae betrëfft... Ech fannen et weiderhinn onbegräiflech wéi mer mat de Fraen am Iran matfillen, an dann awer hei esou e Quatsch toleréieren. Sorry, esou vill Naïvitéit ass net hëllefräich. Fir keen.
