For @KLM percentages for discounts are quite interesting. A 25% discount might actually be less than a 10% discount (in theory from the same initial price). And it’s not the first time I see this. Marketing #scam or technical error? #FlyingBlue

[Răzvan-Victor Sassu @RazvanSassu]

Belavia ousted from EU airports, EU airlines to stop flying over Belarus and more sanctions to come soon. Good for starters, hoping tough sanctions to follow.

Conclusions on #Belarus adopted at #EUCO chaired by @eucopresident

[Răzvan-Victor Sassu @RazvanSassu]

@AdinaValean And the EU should take strong action to punish Belarus. Suspend Belavia’s right to fly in the EU, targeted sanctions, avoid Belarus airspace (and the fees that they charge for it) etc.

#Belarus hijacking a @Ryanair flight should not go (severely) unpunished by the international community. This is governmental terrorism. Nobody should be afraid that their plane will be hijacked by another govt. EU should act swiftly and firmly. #FreeBelarus #BelarusHijacking

@DetroitBORG Apple’s way of telling us we get too much screen time and from time to time we need a break. 🤪😅

[Răzvan-Victor Sassu @RazvanSassu]

The @Europarl_EN and @EUCouncil reps are negociating and fighting this week over the Digital Green Certificate, but they should keep in mind that we as #EU citizens need them sooner rather than later. It’s time to put collective interests above petty squabbles and get them done.

Thank you Daisy Moran for representing @WorldYMCA and so many young people worldwide today at the WHO press conference, you did a great job!

[Răzvan-Victor Sassu @RazvanSassu]

Starting today young people worldwide can access micro-grants of $500-$5000 under the @gymobilization project, led by the Big 6 youth org and co-funded by @WHO and @unfoundation. Great conference today by @DrTedros , @GretaThunberg and Daisy from @WorldYMCA.

First vaccine jab - done. ✅🚀 #Pfizer And today the EU reached 100 million administered doses, so fingers crossed to get over this as quickly as possible and vaccinate everyone who wants a jab. #COVID19Vaccine

Such a sad day. 😥 Condolences to @RoyalFamily, @intaward. Prince Philip will have an important place not just in the UK’s, but in global history.

[The Royal Family @RoyalFamily]

It is with deep sorrow that Her Majesty The Queen has announced the death of her beloved husband, His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle.

Next time when meeting Erdogan. :) #GiveHerASeat

[Răzvan-Victor Sassu @RazvanSassu]

So sad to see how @vonderleyen was disrespected (and by extension the EU) by not being given a seat by Erdogan, and also how @eucopresident didn’t even care to notice and take any action. Women deserve an equal seat at the table, period. #GiveHerASeat #genderequality

[Răzvan-Victor Sassu @RazvanSassu]

So happy to see @sokthea speaking on behalf of @WorldYMCA at the ECOSOC Youth Forum calling Govts and world leaders to adopt sustainable consumption policies and keeping an eye for a Just Transition to green policies. Great job, Sokthea! #Youth2030 #YMCA

[Răzvan-Victor Sassu @RazvanSassu]

The COVID-19 vaccine should be available to everyone, freely, in a voluntary capacity, no matter where you come from. It shouldn’t be treated as a commercial good, but an essential medicine and a basic human right to obtain it.

[World YMCA @WorldYMCA]

On #WorldHealthDay, we reaffirm our call for a #COVID19 vaccine to be freely and equally available to all

Facebook is getting out of control in its unrelenting hunt for engagement at all costs. Unelected, with massive power and influence over our lives. Social media regulation needs to happen sooner, with transparent algorithms, just taxation, ownership restructuring and limits.

[NBC News @NBCNews]

Human smugglers are openly advertising their services on Facebook, falsely telling Central Americans interested in crossing illegally into the U.S. that they can promise a "100 percent" safe journey. - @NBCNewsNow https://t.co/oy0Snw0FGe

[Răzvan-Victor Sassu @RazvanSassu]

A strong dose of optimism as the EU is quickly catching up on the vaccination campaign. Reaching 50-60% of vaccinated adults by mid-summer is quickly closer to becoming reality. #vaccineforall #vaccines

[POLITICOEurope @POLITICOEurope]

OPINION: It's "no longer unthinkable that the EU will finish vaccinating its entire adult population ahead of the UK." https://t.co/hvrrsmkceZ

1. BREAKING

@Facebook pledged to suspend political donations for the first 90 days of 2021, then donated $50,000 to @RSLC, a Republican group pushing voter suppression laws

The @WorldYMCA delegation is getting ready for next week’s ECOSOC Youth Forum, which celebrates its 10th anniversary. With so many pandemic-related challenges that youth are facing, it’s more important than ever to #SpeakUp. #Youth2030
