🌎Europe comes to COP30 in Brazil! ⚡️The EU is ready to deliver new, ambitious climate goals with a clear mission to build bridges, meet the Paris Agreement objectives, and make the clean transition work for everyone worldwide. 📺🔗youtube.com/shorts/yjfZ1AXs0…
Ready for Belém! Just arrived to @Cop30noBrasil with good news. The EU has just adopted its NDC for 2035. 66-72% in GHG reduction by 2035 from to 1990. A milestone on our path to reaching climate neutrality in 🇪🇺 by 2050. And to keeping the Paris goals within reach.

The European Union is committed to protecting and strengthening democracy around the world.
In a democracy, there is a place for everyone. It is built on participation, diversity and equality. As the EU, we support genuine elections, protect independent media, stand with civil society and challenge disinformation, because in a democracy all voices matter. #DemocracyDay

Replying to @EUDelegationUA
I'm outraged by the missile and drone attack on Kyiv, killing men, women and children. And damaging our EU diplomatic mission. My thoughts go to our brave staff. Russia's strikes on Kyiv will only strengthen Europe's unity and Ukraine's defiance ↓ xitter.gq/i/broadcasts/1rmxPvZoY…
