From the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church, Dr. King spoke to the conscience of a nation—and inspired the world. At @TheKingCenter, EU ambassadors and I paid our respects to honor his vision and Coretta Scott King’s work to carry it forward. It’s a responsibility we all share.

We have a responsibility to uphold international law.
The EU is fully committed to the independence of international justice.
We urge the United States to use the coming months to engage in dialogue.
We will continue support the ICC and to protect its members and staff.

Today marks three years since the terrorist attacks of 7 October in Israel.
We honour the victims and stand with the families who still carry the heavy weight of grief.
We remember the young lives cut short at a music festival. And the long ordeal of the hostages.
The EU stands with all those whose lives were forever changed by that day.
The unspeakable savagery and terror of 7 October must never happen again.
The EU remains ready to help turn today’s fragile ceasefire into a durable peace, based on a two-state solution.
And remains equally convinced that nothing justifies terror.

25 years ago, the #September11 attacks devastated not just the US, but their partners around the world.
That morning, the sky was crystal clear. Today, we join #RememberTheSky with @Sept11Memorial, which encourages us to reflect on that day and how the world came together.

Coordination within the Coalition of the Willing is essential to provide Ukraine with the comprehensive support it needs to prepare for the coming winter. The EU is accelerating the rollout of the Ukraine Support Loan to support air defence and energy infrastructure.
Pressure on the Russian economy and its shadow fleet will continue and increase. Russia must engage seriously in peace negotiations. Escalation is not the solution — diplomacy is.
Security in the Black Sea must be restored. Russia must allow Ukrainian grain to reach the rest of the world. Russia is putting global food security at risk.
We will move forward with Ukraine’s EU accession process. The future of Ukraine is in the European Union.
We will continue to support Ukraine for as long as necessary and provide Ukraine with security guarantees once this terrible war ends, so that it never happens again.

Proud to be in Kyiv to mark Ukraine’s Independence Day, a crucial date in its long struggle for freedom. Today we also pay tribute to all Ukrainians defending their homeland on the frontlines and across the country. Ukraine’s enemies will not prevail.

160 million movements registered - that means almost 3 million per week, out of which 50,000 people with no right to enter were refused.
Delivering real security benefits - the EU’s new Entry Exit system.

The plan to disarm Hamas in Gaza, if fully implemented, would be a constructive step towards peace.
I welcome the deal brokered by the US, with the support of Egypt, Qatar, Türkiye, and @nmladenov.
A lot needs to fall in place for this to work. Success depends on the full commitment of all parties. Verifying Hamas’ compliance will be a significant challenge. Israel would need to eventually withdraw from Gaza.
We stand ready to support the next steps, including the entry of the National Committee and the International Stabilisation Force. Our two EU missions on the ground play an important role in support of Palestinian state-building efforts.
The EU is Gaza’s biggest humanitarian donor. In July, the EU pledged €900 million in aid projects to help Gaza recover from the war.

I welcome the agreement on the 21st sanctions package against Russia.
At a time when Ukraine has built military momentum, our sanctions continue to weaken the economic foundations of Russia’s war effort.
We’re adding 32 more Russian banks to our transaction ban list.
As well as crypto firms and oil trading platforms.
Freezing the oil price cap adjustment for a year, so that the Russian war machine does not benefit from market shocks.
For the first time, we’re targeting vessels assisting Russia’s shadow fleet.
And we took an important step towards formally banning Russian combatants from entering the EU.
Many thanks to @Ireland2026eu for facilitating this agreement.

The EU is mobilizing up to $1 trillion for defense investment through 2030.
That means greater readiness for Europe and significant opportunities for American defense companies, technology providers and investors.
More European defense. More transatlantic opportunity.
Jovita Neliupšienė retweeted
When the EU committed to investing more in defense, some doubted we'd deliver. Today, budgets are approved, production is expanding, and procurement is accelerating—supporting US jobs and industry. The era of Europe outsourcing security is over. My latest:

Congratulations, Sergii Koretsky, on your confirmation as Prime Minister.
We look forward to continuing our excellent cooperation with Ukraine.
We are confident that you will place Ukraine's European integration at the heart of the country’s transformation effort.
You can count on our full support
as you advance your ambitious reform agenda.
Notably in the areas of the rule of law, energy and other key sectors of the economy.

We’re sanctioning Russia at speed and scale.
Today’s measures, together with the upcoming 21st sanctions package, will add 250 individuals and entities to the Russia sanctions regime.
This is our biggest round of individual designations since Moscow’s 2022 full-scale invasion, and includes also the EU’s largest-ever cyber sanctions package.
The financial backbone of Russia’s war machine is the main target. Every measure weakens Moscow’s ability to wage war.

In Paris for the meeting of the Coalition of the Willing.
Ukraine has built strong military momentum. The tide is turning.
The EU is fully playing its part with our €90 billion Loan.
Today, we will also discuss how to protect Ukraine's skies from Russian drones and ballistic missiles.
We can and will do more.
Jovita Neliupšienė retweeted
Touchbase with @ZelenskyyUa at the NATO Summit.
We are committed to helping protect the skies of Ukraine.
More support is on the way for air defence and missile interception.
Our teams are working closely to integrate our defence industries - to produce fast and “en masse”.
We also discussed energy preparations for the winter and our joint end goal: a free, sovereign Ukraine inside the EU.
We will get there, step by step and cluster by cluster.

Today, we are presenting a new sanctions regime against migrant smugglers and traffickers.
We all have a common goal.
To drive them out of business. And to save the lives of thousands of people who dream of a better life.
We in Europe must be the ones to decide who comes to us and in what circumstances.
