Consider this: The #EU has just won 2 court cases against big tech. Yet these do not get continuous MSM attention. The USA banning #TikTok is wall-to-wall even here in Europe. We need to celebrate our wins more, not obsess about USA (frankly) incompetence.
"**the European Court of Justice gave the Union's regulators two major victories in their ongoing battles with tech giants, judging that #Apple and #Google must pay over €15 billion in total"**

There is no space for racism in the EU. Or anywhere.
No one should be denied a job, home, or opportunity because of their race or ethnic background.
The EU stands united against racism, for a fairer Union where inclusion and equality are at the centre.
Today, on International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, and every day.
Valuing our food and producers.
Creating a future where sustainable growth benefits everyone.
Today, we put forward an ambitious roadmap for agriculture and food in Europe until 2040.
Our Vision aims to:
⚖️ Ensure better income, support new entrepreneurs
💪 Diversify supply chains and ensure fair competition
✔ Meet climate targets considering sector challenges
🚜 Support farmers who need it
✂️ Simplify procedures for digital-ready agriculture
Towards fostering trust, dialogue, collaboration.
Today, we have opened formal proceedings against TikTok for a suspected breach of the Digital Services Act.
Following serious indications that foreign actors interfered by using TikTok in the Romanian presidential elections, we are now thoroughly investigating whether TikTok has violated the DSA by failing to tackle such risks.
We must protect our democracies from any foreign interference.

A message from Canadians:🇨🇦
Dear 🌎 World:
There is no reason for Canada to even consider the possibility let alone discuss our position as a US state.
Let me quote our Prime Minister:
"There isn't a snowball's chance in hell that Canada would become part of the United States," Trudeau "
And as a Canadian I am very annoyed whenever anyone brings up the possibility of us giving up our sovereignty.
I am not alone in feeling this, so please never ask again because some of us might not respond with a civilized reply.
Please boost this post--thanks

Energy in Europe?
Clean, affordable, and European.
Just in the third quarter of 2024:
☀️ Solar power generation went up by 23%
🌬️ Offshore wind power rose 21%, while onshore rose by 2%
🌊 Hydropower grew by 13%
⛽ Fossil fuel electricity went down by 11%
Now, we're ready to up the ante.
In February, we'll unveil a plan to boost investments in next-gen clean energy like fusion and geothermal, aiming for more energy independence and lower prices.

Thanks to @zollak, we updated the status of ten MEPs! Now, we have 421 more politicians to persuade to leave X, which is a decrease from 60% to 59%.
Can we get that number below 50% before spring?
Contact the MEPs using our tool https://leavex.eu/politicians/
We should keep track of how many politicians left X by either stating it or deleting their accounts.
P. S. here is the code with these latest changes https://github.com/everton137/leavex-tools/commit/d49dd70bd97349adc813ddae0f5982bdddcb97bf

In 2024, an estimated 1,500 independent journalists and editorial newsrooms from Russia and Belarus fled or moved to EU countries.
They can count on us to keep their critical work going.
We are offering €3 million to create a pan-European network of media hubs promoting media pluralism.
This ensures they can continue doing their essential work free from editorial interference.

Europe needs a surge in defence.
We must prepare and respond to the threats we face today.
At the Informal EU leaders' retreat yesterday, we agreed we must work together as Europeans to prepare and respond by:
🛡️ urgently increasing defence spending,
🤝 strengthening coordination in defence,
✂️ simplifying our legislation,
💡 fostering defence innovation.
We will present a White Paper in March, for necessary decisions in June.
russia invaded Crimea and Donbas region of #Ukraine in February 2014, which was 12 years and 3 months ago. Russia’s full-scale invasion of #Ukraine started 4 years and 3 months ago.
#Ukrainian defenders have been protecting their families, friends, homes, towns and nation from the full-scale invasion for 1,529 days.
In Donbas, Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea, Ukrainians have been resisting the russian terrorist invaders for 4,473 days.
On behalf of Americans who support #Ukraine, we stand firm in our commitment to a free, independent, democratic, and sovereign Ukraine, capable of defending itself and deterring future aggression. Give every weapon in the arsenal of democracy to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
They need partners to deliver air defense and weapons- speak up for Ukraine. Thank you.
