The right to live & work across borders, while maintaining clear #socialrights, is fundamental in the #EU

COVID19, closing of borders and large scale teleworking posed unprecedented challenges to this principle

Looking forward to working with the new #EU leadership. In an unpredictable world, #NATO-EU cooperation is more important & closer than ever.

[Charles Michel @CharlesMichel]

To be appointed President of #EUCO is a great responsibility and a task I will fulfill with commitment.

A united #Europe with respect for national diversity is my objective.

Solidarity, freedom & mutual respect are the core of the European Union. I will uphold those values.

[Marianne Thyssen @mariannethyssen]

#EU's unemployment rate is lowest it has ever been this century. Also youth unemployment continues to decrease in most Member States. We must continue on this path with European Pillar of #SocialRights as guide to ensure that all citizens benefit from these developments.

[Cecilia Malmström @MalmstromEU]

So happy that we were able to conclude EU Mercosur trade negotiations yesterday. It brings a lot of opportunities for the EU. Thank you chief negotiator @SandraGallina and your team for a fantastic job!

I strongly disagree with President Putin that liberalism is obsolete. What I find really obsolete are authoritarianism, personality cults, the rule of oligarchs.

[Emmanuel Macron @EmmanuelMacron]

Notre combat pour le climat avance : 24 états membres partagent désormais l’objectif de neutralité carbone pour 2050. Il y a trois mois à peine nous n’étions que quelques uns. L’Europe doit être à l’avant-garde pour porter cette ambition.

[Jean-Claude Juncker @JunckerEU]

In creating the #euro, we turned an improbable aspiration into a daily reality for millions of Europeans. The banknotes in our pockets are worth far more than the numbers written on them. They are the tangible symbol of a united Europe.
