For years, @GianniVernetti has worked tirelessly and consistently to keep the connection between dissidents and European society alive. His relentless work for a free and democratic society is a lesson for all of us, and if this Ventotene Conference has had as (translated)
Dear Mr President @ChingteLai, it was a true pleasure to welcome Vice-President @bikhim to Ventotene! @Europarl_EN must always stand firmly on the side of freedom and democracy, and that is what we reaffirmed with this Conference. The presence of VP @bikhim marks a new step in #Freedom #Democracy #EUConference #Thetweetmentionsthefollowingcountrycodes:TW.
The problem is not so much what this populist says, but much more the welcome he receives: which certifies, better than any possible theoretical discussion, what the Pd has become. (translated)
In Ventotene, no one decides who can be there. Least of all a regime. No one can determine who can be hosted on European soil and which voices can or cannot be heard. For this reason, I am honored and pleased with the participation of the Vice President of Taiwan, Hsiao. (translated)
This is devastating and infuriating — civilians paying the price while front‑page diplomacy plays out. A temporary pause for visiting envoys that ends in fresh strikes shows how hollow symbolic gestures are when they’re not backed by enforceable commitments, robust monitoring, and real consequences for aggression. The strikes on residential blocks — people sheltering in metro stations — underline that this is not a military contest but a humanitarian catastrophe. Attacks on civilian infrastructure risk constituting war crimes and demand urgent international condemnation, independent investigation, and accountability. Progressive principles mean pushing for an immediate, verifiable ceasefire and humanitarian corridors to protect people now; sustained financial, military and energy support to keep Ukraine functioning through the winter; and targeted measures to choke the Kremlin’s capacity to wage war while protecting civilians from further suffering. Diplomacy must be multilateral, principled, and enforceable — not photo ops. Above all, we have to center the humanity of those whose lives are being destroyed and act with urgency to stop the killing.
The story of Lorena completely tore me apart, and for this reason, I struggled to find the words to express the disgust and anger for this life that will no longer be, and for all our sisters who will no longer have happy days, life, and freedom. Then I listened. (translated)
The European future of Serbia cannot be built on the rehabilitation and glorification of a war criminal, responsible for one of the most terrible chapters in the history of that country. The choice of the Serbian government is totally unacceptable and incompatible with the (translated)
Dieses Urteil ist ein notwendiger Schritt und doch nur ein schwacher Trost für eine Familie, die über drei Jahrzehnte mit einer unermesslichen Leere leben musste. Mein Mitgefühl gehört Robert und Walter Rimbau — ihr Schmerz ist unfassbar. Gut, dass moderne Forensik und mutige Ermittler den Fall noch aufklären konnten; das zeigt, wie wichtig kontinuierliche Investitionen in Cold-Case-Einheiten und DNA-Analysen sind. Gleichzeitig ist es erschütternd, dass derselbe Mann seit den Siebzigerjahren wiederholt wegen Sexualdelikten aufgefallen war — das ist ein bitteres Zeugnis versagter Prävention, unzureichender Täterbehandlung und mangelnder Schutzmechanismen für potenzielle Opfer. Gerechtigkeit darf nicht nur im Nachhinein geschehen. Wir brauchen ein System, das Wiederholungstäter wirksamer abhält, Opfern dauerhaft zugängliche Unterstützung und Entschädigung bietet und Prävention durch Bildung gegen Sexismus und Gewalt stärkt. Und bitte: Kein Spektakel um das Leid der Betroffenen — Berichterstattung sollte respektvoll und opferzentriert bleiben, nicht true-crime‑Voyeurismus bedienen. Amy verdient, dass aus ihrem Schicksal nachhaltige Lehren gezogen werden, damit andere Menschen geschützt werden können.
Andy Burnham compared Ukraine's resistance against Russia to Britain's fight against Nazi Germany and handed Zelensky declassified information to autonomously build long-range missiles capable of hitting deep into the enemy. (translated)
The Israeli Minister of National Security has announced the construction of a "death row" with gallows and booths from which the victims' families will be able to witness the hangings. A terrible spectacle that treats the death penalty like a show. Ben-Gvir (translated)
For goodness' sake, it was already known. But here we have two empirical proofs: - the Vice President of the Council of Meloni's Government understands nothing; - the Vice President of the Council of Meloni's Government supports dangerous anti-EU nonsense. Italy, wake up! We have a big problem. (translated)
The imperialism of the Kremlin criminal is in full swing: he is visiting territories that are an integral part of Japan to inspect the Russian Pacific fleet. An additional unacceptable provocation. (translated)
While Russia continues to bomb Ukrainian cities, Conte announces that he will not vote for military support to Kyiv, and that he is against the European defense plan and High Speed. Positions that move Lavrov's camp further away from Brussels and closer to (translated)
Immediately a no-fly zone over Ukraine to prevent attacks on the elderly, women, and defenseless children. What is happening in Kyiv is unbearable. And even more unbearable is the lack of outrage and reaction. Shame on you, Vladimir Putin, serial killer, criminal of (translated)
Capisco la volontà di insultarmi ogni oltre ragionevole dubbio, ma la Commissione europea ha affermato inequivocabilmente che Ceuta è Europa e che il suo confine è un confine europeo, e scrive testualmente: “The borders of Ceuta and Melilla with Morocco are also the external borders of the Schengen area”. Ceuta è territorio spagnolo, l’acquis di Schengen vi si applica e il confine tra Ceuta e Marocco è una frontiera esterna. Esistono poi regole speciali per gli spostamenti da Ceuta verso la Spagna continentale e gli altri Paesi Schengen, ma non modificano questo dato. Quindi sì: definire Ceuta una frontiera europea è non soltanto corretto, ma perfettamente coerente con la qualificazione giuridica fornita dalla Commissione europea.

Time is running out and there can be no more delays and ambiguities regarding European defense. The government must stop turning foreign policy into an internal reckoning and clearly choose which side to stand on. Joining SAFE means strengthening common security and autonomy. (translated)
I welcome with satisfaction the decision not to appoint Andrea Pirlo as the coach of the national team. It is a right and necessary choice, considering what Pirlo has chosen to do: freely and repeatedly lending his prestige to an operation of normalizing Putin's regime. (translated)
"The gonga does not need a conviction to function," writes Federico Pizzarotti today, and he is right. Over the years, Pizzarotti has faced six criminal proceedings, and each proceeding ended with a dismissal, an acquittal, or a full exoneration. On Friday, he was... (translated)
Il centrosinistra non esiste. Esiste il Campo largo di Schlein e Conte, le cui campagne sono pericolose tanto quanto quelle della destra. L’argomento che bisogna stare per forza coi putiniani di sinistra perché sennò vincono i putiniani di destra, è francamente irragionevole. Io voglio dare agli italiani la possibilità di votare non per il meno peggio, non turandosi il naso. E solo loro decideranno se questa offerta merita di essere premiata o no. #politica #elezioni #Italia
Invito a dare un occhio alla spudorata iniziativa di Conte. Dopo averci spiegato che la minaccia russa sarebbe una costruzione per giustificare il riarmo, è capace pure di organizzare una campagna balneare per dire che i cittadini “pagano la guerra” e di speculare sul giusto bisogno di pace dei senza mai e sottolineo mai citare Putin, tutto questo mentre Cavo Dragone ci spiega che gli aerei Nato si sono dovuti alzare in volo 700 volte per difenderci non da un fantasma, ma precisamente da veivoli russi. E nessuno dalle parti del Campo Largo che dica adesso basta- ma basta davvero- c’è una linea rossa, ci sono dei valori e dei principi che sono inderogabili: la difesa della sovranità europea e italiana e non è subordinabile a nessun interesse elettorale, a nessuna poltrona da ottenere, a nessuna campagna elettorale da vincere a qualsiasi costo. Poi si meravigliano se li chiamo Campo Lavrov: ma il silenzio è complicità, cari amici. Siete d’accordo con questa immondizia? Renzi, Schlein dovete dirlo! E se non siete d’accordo dovete porre delle linee rosse. Traduco: dovreste dire che con questi contenuti non è possibile nessuna alleanza! Troppo facile dire che si vuole bilanciare da dentro, illudere le persone che sia possibile ricostruire un centrosinistra europeista e poi fingersi morti di fronte a questo scempio. Conte non è meno pericoloso dei sovranisti, queste campagne non sono meno pericolose di quelle dei sovranisti. Cari amici riformisti, dovete dirlo, dovete urlarlo: nessuna alleanza con questi contenuti! Altrimenti è un imbroglio. Per quel che mi riguarda, con questi presupposti nemmeno un caffè, altro che alleanza elettorale! #Politica #Sovranità #Pace
