Migrationsdeal mit 🇹🇳 - die #EU sagt Tunesien 100 Millionen Euro für #Grenzmanagement zu. @vonderleyen Programm zu Migration & Flucht übersetzt [Ein Thread]
Gatekeeper Tunesien: Das Land steckt in einer Wirtschaftskrise mit Nahrungsmittelengpässen & hoher Arbeitslosigkeit. #EU möchte das autokratische Regime mit 900 Millionen stabilisieren, um im Gegenzug von Tunesien Menschen auf ihrer Flucht nach Europa abhalten zu lassen. [2/6]
Déjà-vu? Ähnlich Abkommen gibt es bereits mit anderen Ländern wie Libyen. Das Fazit: Migrationsverhinderung und Abschottung durch illegale Pullbacks an den EU-Außengrenzen. Die EU hält an ihrer tödlichen Politik fest. [3/6]

Promises made. Promises kept.

The State of the Union address sets out our agenda for Europe.

During #SOTEU 2021, President @vonderleyen outlined many initiatives relevant for Europeans.

What progress have we made on the initiatives since then? A thread 👇
🟢 European Chips Act

Despite all the challenges we faced this year, 2021 has also been a year full of inspiring stories about solidarity, merit and hope.

We bring you 7⃣ inspiring stories of 2021!
1⃣ The power of science

In 2021, Dr Özlem Türeci and Dr Uğur Şahin, co-founders of @BioNTech_Group, received the Order of Merit – an award for their scientific persistence to develop a COVID-19 vaccine saving lives of millions of people worldwide. 🏅

An inspiration to all.
2⃣ The power of solidarity

In 2021, #TeamEurope shared over 350 million doses to low and middle-income countries - mostly via #COVAX. And our efforts will continue next year with more donations.

Because no one is safe until everyone is safe.

LIVE with @DrTedros at the Partnership for African Vaccine Manufacturing - From Aspiration To Action event ⬇️

#VaccinEquity

@DrTedros "When we last spoke in April, #COVID19 vaccines had already been rolling out around the world for 4 months. Since then, some countries have managed to vaccinate the majority of their populations, and are well on their way to widespread coverage with boosters"-@DrTedros
@DrTedros "But back in April, most of the 🌍’s countries, including most African countries, did not have anywhere near enough vaccines to cover all #healthworkers, or all at-risk groups, never mind the rest of their populations. That remains the case"-@DrTedros
