In condemning the "illegal ruling" by Poland's constitutional court to ban #abortion, @MEugeniaRPalop says such criminalisation is "a violation of #WomensRights."

"It is part of an international, far-right conservative objective: to destroy gender equality."

#StrajkKobiet
"Women have the right to decide over their own bodies - a #HumanRight that cannot be violated," says @nvillumsen.

"In spite of mass street protests, by pushing through the #abortion ban with the help of illegitimate judges, the Polish government has violated EU #RuleOfLaw."
Describing Poland's #abortionban as "illegal & regressive", @deppcppeguengl's Sandra Pereira says it "goes against the dignity of women & their reproductive health rights."

"This ban also hits the most disadvantaged women in our society the hardest."

#SolidarityWithPolishWomen
Poland's unlawful #abortionban is "a head-on attack on #WomensRights & our bodies"- @MalinBjork_EU.

"By responding with repression & persecution in courts, the Polish state no longer honours #RuleOfLaw. This must be condemned at the highest level @vonderleyen."

Big Pharma is calling the shots, @ManonAubryFr to Commission President @vonderleyen.

"The vaccines have been developed thanks to billions of euros of public money. Yet, patents remain in the hands of Big Pharma. As a result, governments cannot produce sufficient doses..." Image
"Only three contracts have been made public. This is what they look like: the most important information is hidden! For the other contracts, we will have to wait. Because yes, Big Pharma decides, not the Commission." @ManonAubryFr to Commission President @vonderleyen #EPlenary Image
"What an admission of impotence Ms. @vonderleyen! Isn't it for us to make the law? We are capable of imposing unprecedented restrictions on freedoms but unable to set rules for Big Pharma? We call upon a Committee of Inquiry to hold those responsible to account." @ManonAubryFr Image

The Commission has not learnt from the mistakes of the past, says @joseggusmao.

"This Recovery Fund has an umbilical cord relationship with the European Semester and the looming threat of a return to the infamous macroeconomic conditionality."
For @joao_ferreira33, member states will have to foot the bill of the Recovery Fund:

"Member states will have to pay for the money they receive now with cuts in the money they were expected to receive in the future."

#NextGenerationEU #EPlenary
It is positive that the Recovery and Resilience Facility has criteria for the disbursement of funds and specified objectives, according to @silviamodig.

"We need to improve the economy and to create trust in the future for the people."
