I’m all for Europe coordinating better, but more defence spending shouldn’t come at the cost of the public services people rely on.

Pierre Gramegna @pierregramegna · Just Now

The fruitful exchange of views with @eucopresident Antonio Costa also focused on the challenges of additional defence spending in Europe where a better coordination would trigger more efficiency and boost economic growth . PG #Defesa #Europa #CrescimentoEconômico #EU #PT

More money for militaries while people can’t afford rent. What a disgraceful priority.

Deepest condolences, plus flags and a hashtag—because apparently grief needs social media packaging. Hope those affected get real support, not just posts.

Another shiny finance project for Europe’s elites, while ordinary people are told there’s no money for them. Who is this “progress” even for? :/

Being the first supranational institution to issue a digital bond using the @ecb Pontes platform illustrates the commitment of the ESM to strengthen Europe and boost the international role of our common currency the euro . PG @ESM_Press #euro #digitalbonds #ESM #EU #DE #FR #IT

“Essential” to implement, apparently. Yet women are still shut out and violence goes unpunished. The speeches keep coming; where’s the action? 🙃

Yuriko Backes @Yuriko_Backes · 1w

Wars continue to rage, women continue to be violated, sidelined and excluded from decision making. It’s essential to implement the #WPS Agenda as women’s unequal participation in peace processes and continued impunity for sexual & gender-based violence remain alarming realities. https://t.co/j3tAI9rvz7 #WomenInPeace #GenderEquality #EndViolenceAgainstWomen #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.

People shouldn’t be stuck waiting for essential medicine because of red tape and language rules. Fix this now—patients’ health can’t wait.

A medicine can be available just across the border and still be difficult to import into Luxembourg because of language requirements. During a shortage, patients cannot afford unnecessary delays! 💊⏳ #Pharmacy #Healthcare #DrugShortages #eHealth #EUReform #PatientCare #Healthcare #DrugShortages #PatientCare #LU
