The EU has been a reliable partner of the Republic of Moldova for years and we continue to stand by Moldova in the face of the recent challenges.
We recommended that the @EUCouncil start negotiations for a status agreement between @Frontex and Moldova.

This will allow Frontex to assist Moldovan border guards in carrying out border management tasks with Ukraine. Image
We will provide an additional €15 million to the Moldovan authorities for assisting people fleeing the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Image
In the field of defence, we will provide €7 million to support the Moldovan armed forces.

This will fund field hospitals, ambulances, medical imaging and surgical equipment to provide better care to civilians in crisis and emergency situations. Image

Putin's war demonstrates the urgency of accelerating our clean energy transition.

Today we outline REPowerEU - our plan to increase Europe's energy independence:

⚡ Reduced demand for Russian fossil fuels.

⚡ Emergency measures to tackle energy prices in Europe.

#EUGreenDeal
We simply cannot rely on a supplier who explicitly threatens us.

We will end our overdependence on Russian gas by diversifying gas supplies and reducing faster the use of fossil fuels in our homes, buildings, industry, and power systems.

#EUGreenDeal
Uncertainty on supply is rising pressure on energy prices in Europe.

To stop it and secure our gas supply, EU countries will be required to ensure that underground gas storage is filled up to at least 90% of its capacity by 1 October each year.

We are strengthening our response to hold Russia and Belarus to account for their attack on Ukraine.

Our new sanctions will harm their war and propaganda machine and have an eroding impact on their economies.

We will also finance the purchase and delivery of weapons to Ukraine.

Massive and targeted sanctions, agreed by EU leaders, will have severe consequences for Russia.

These sanctions cover:

⛔️The financial sector
⛔️The energy and transport sectors
⛔️A ban on the export of aircraft spare parts
⛔️Access to important technology
⛔️Visa policy
⛔The financial sector

We target 70% of the Russian banking market and key state-owned enterprises, including in the defence sector.
⛔The energy and transport sectors

Export ban will hit the oil sector by making it impossible for Russia to modernise its refineries.

Decent work is the foundation of a decent life.

We are strengthening our efforts to promote #DecentWork worldwide by:

🔹 setting out a strategy with new and existing tools;
🔹 preparing a new legislation to ban products made by forced labour from entering the EU.

#SocialRights
Around the world:
🌐 160 million children are in child labour, and
🌐 24.9 million people are in a situation of forced labour.

These practices must stop.

The elimination of child labour and forced labour is at the heart of our strategy for decent work worldwide.

#SocialRights
Many workers worldwide still see their labour and social rights threatened daily.

We will reinforce our actions to change this situation, guided by the 4️⃣ elements of the universal concept of decent work. ↓

The Data Act is a pillar of the European Data Strategy.

It will foster a competitive data market by opening up new opportunities for businesses and making data more accessible to every consumer and business.

#EUDataAct #DigitalEU
The volume of data is constantly growing, from 33 zettabytes in 2018 to an expected 175 zettabytes in 2025.

The Data Act addresses the legal, economic and technical issues that lead to data being underused.

#EUDataAct #DigitalEU
This initiative is crucial for defining an open Single Market for data.

The new rules will make more data available for re-use and are expected to create an additional €270 billion in GDP by 2028.
