(TR) For one thing is clear: This war is not about land. It is about people, their culture, and our shared Europe. And we will continue to support Ukraine in this.

(TR) Culture is not a soft power in war. It is exactly what warlords like Putin want to destroy: identity. We talked about this yesterday morning in the European Parliament during the presentation of the book "Lessons for a Brave World."

(TR) @Karin_Kneissl, a FpÖ traitor who was already in the service of Putin as foreign minister. That should be warning enough for us in Austria.

putin can destroy buildings in Ukraine - but never the great Ukrainian culture. Ukrainian culture and artists are an important part of European history and culture #UkrainianCulture #StandWithUkraine #EuropeanHeritage #UA #RU

Thank You for the meeting @KubiliusA , the EU is built on peace, and so we have to be ready to defend our freedom and democracy. Together in unity! #EU #Democracy #Unity #EU

(TR) The President of the Austrian National Council is deliberately misinforming the public. Consequences?

(TR) Women in Ukraine bear a great burden: Many had to flee with their children, while others serve in the army. Their experiences show how much strength is needed to keep families together in this situation. It is important that women have a stronger voice at conferences.

Thanks @PahlaviReza for the meeting in Odesa. Our parliaments and the EP should do more for the opposition in Iran. Democracy is key for the freedom of the people, but also for peace in Europe. The Iranian regime supports terrorism in the EU,we support the freedom loving Iranians https://t.co/Bun4O1DSly #Iran #Democracy #HumanRights #IR #EU #UA

(TR) The committee of the European Parliament "Democracy Shield" is working on a report about the many forms of disinformation. It should be finished in June. Right-wing groups, however, continue to represent the interests of Russia - to unsettle and then destroy Europe.

(TR) Ukraine will become a member of the EU, to the benefit of both sides. It is currently defending not only itself but also the security of Europe. It is all the more important to further strengthen cooperation in the fight against hybrid threats, cyberattacks, and disinformation.

(TR) The Russian propaganda is always lying. What is terrible is that the right-wing puppets repeat these lies. Often word for word. Why only why.

(TR) From neutral Switzerland, Russian threats are being transported. Aren't you ashamed? @KoeppelRoger

(TR) Odessa Security Forum: How can Ukraine achieve peace and how can the USA & Europe help? Many US politicians emphasize that Ukraine is also fighting for the security of the USA. Trump's spiritual advisor is trying to convince him of this.

(TR) That's right: it is wrong to invade another country and daily bomb civilian facilities as Putin does. Everything was wrong with Hitler as well.

We hear the people of Iran, and we will not stay silent anymore. The time for half measures is over. We must act now. https://t.co/i3A5ZwYaFp #Iran #StandWithIran #HumanRights #IR

Putinove bábky je zaujímavé sledovať napríklad na sociálnych sieťach, pretože niekedy používajú viac-menej presne tie isté slová, aké počujete od hovorkyne ruského ministerstva zahraničných vecí Marie Zacharovovej alebo od novinárov z RT.

Europoslanec z rakúskej vládnej strany: Ak idete do Moskvy, musíte konfrontovať Putina ako zločinca

Europe must take responsibility for its own defense. Yes, of course we need partners, but relying entirely on others for our security is no longer enough. https://t.co/lbggllF3Y3 #EuropeDefense #SelfReliance #SecurityPolicy #EU

(TR) Meeting with the Russian ex-premier @MKasyanov: Putin is weakened, 25% of the Russian oil industry destroyed, Putin must negotiate. The EU needs a clear strategy for negotiations and clear conditions. We cannot rely on @potus. A united Europe is strong.

No, we just want that the Georgian people can live in Peace and Freedom. Without threats from Russia #PeaceForGeorgia #Freedom #StopRussianAggression #GE #RU

(TR) It's simple: Putin's friends in Austria (FpÖ) are ALWAYS against Austria's interests. And always for Putin. They wanted us to buy subsidized (!) steel from Russia and Belarus, so that unemployment would increase here. And then complain about Brussels.

(TR) We cannot leave the social media to Putin's trolls. Putin is investing billions in misinformation in Europe. It's sad that so many submit to the war criminal.

(TR) Putin is a war criminal and a murderer of children. Can you say something about that? Something intelligent, if possible.

(TR) Round-up of the plenary week in Strasbourg: security, industry, independence - these were the central themes of this week. And once again it has been shown: Putin's puppets only advocate for Russia's interests.

(TR) Russia is openly threatening to bomb five Latvian army bases and to directly attack NATO.

(TR) Yes, it's always about doing everything for Putin and his murderous regime. Against the interests of the people in Austria.

(TR) Therefore, we decided this week to protect our steel industry against countries that subsidize their exports. The FpÖ voted against it because we do not want to buy steel from Russia. The FpÖ is working for Putin, against the people in Austria.

(TR) The USA has just stripped a former politician of justice from his home country - the EU country and NATO member Poland.

(TR) Europe's AI future depends on real digital sovereignty: without a common strategy, capital market union, and targeted attraction of global talent, Europe risks falling behind in the age of AI - also in terms of security policy.

(TR) Violence against civilians in Ukraine has risen massively in 2025. And Trump's talks have also yielded nothing so far.

(TR) In the discussion about the new court for crimes of Russian aggression, it was clear: All Russian criminals must know that they will find no peace even after the war.
