Die #EU ist kostbar. Sie ist unsere Lebensversicherung. Und es ist an uns, unser freies & friedliches Europa mit Entschlossenheit & Mut zu schützen und für die Zukunft aufzustellen. - AMin @ABaerbock in Stuttgarter Rede zu #Europa 1/6 
Unser Frieden in 🇪🇺 ist nicht selbstverständlich. Wir stehen der #Ukraine in ihrem Freiheitskampf bei - humanitär, finanziell, mit Waffen. Wir stärken die #NATO, auch mit zwei neuen Mitgliedern 🇫🇮 & 🇸🇪. Und wir investieren in unsere #Sicherheit, wobei… 2/6

Honestly, it’s been a blast. I’ve had the privilege of leading a truly great team of people in @EU_Taxud. Great expertise, highly committed professionals, and a real family atmosphere, too. A million thanks, #teamTAXUD /2
Incoming #EU High Rep @JosepBorrellF’s first speech gave us a glimpse of #EUdiplomacy’s next 5 years. #EPhearings2019

3/ Borrell raised a shield in defence of the rule-based multilateral order, pointing to Ukraine as evidence of the dangers ahead if it keeps unraveling.
