Following the latest deadly Russian attacks on civilian merchant vessels off the coasts of Bulgaria and Romania, Parliament strongly condemns Russia’s escalation of its war against Ukraine in the Black Sea and calls for greater support for EU countries in the region.

On 26 October, HR/VP @kajakallas attended the E5 Defence Ministers Meeting in Paris.
Ministers from France, Germany, Italy, Poland and the United Kingdom discussed support for Ukraine, European defence and conflicts in the Middle East.
The HR/VP stressed the need to increase pressure on Russia’s shadow fleet across key maritime chokepoints, as Russia continues to strike Kyiv and sink civilian vessels in the Black Sea.

EU Member States are serious about protecting the @IntlCrimCourt and a world governed by international law.
In The Hague, I met ICC President Tomoko Akane to convey the EU’s strong support for the Court, its judges, and their work.
The European Council has expressed its deep regret over the U.S. announcement to impose sanctions against the ICC and has urged to reverse them.
The EU will use the next six months for dialogue, to find a solution and explore what more we can do to help the Court.
The Sakharov Prize recognises the ICC’s vital work in giving victims of the gravest crimes a voice. The Court must remain able to pursue justice independently, free from pressure or intimidation.

Congratulations to the International Criminal Court and its officials on receiving the Sakharov Prize.
This award sends a powerful message to the world: Europe stands firmly behind international law, the fight against impunity, and accountability for the most serious international crimes.
The EU will continue to support the @IntlCrimCourt.
There can be no lasting peace without justice and accountability.

Deeply alarmed by yet another Russian escalation in the Black Sea.
A civilian vessel carrying Ukrainian and Azerbaijani crew has been struck off the coast of Romania.
These reckless attacks target innocent lives and openly defy international law.
My thoughts are with the family and loved ones of the sailor that was killed.
And with the families of the three crew members still missing.
My gratitude goes to the rescue teams working tirelessly to find them.
Thank you, Commissioner @EUCssrMcGrath, for the exchange underlining the complementarity of EU and @coe action in protecting our common democratic standards.
Many thanks also to the Association Parlementaire Européenne and @IrishRepCoE for your warm hospitality.
Taking note of the VC’s opinions on Georgia’s legislative developments on political associations and on foreign funding and political activities, EU urged GE to restore dialogue with civil society and opposition parties, and repeal this legislation.

🇪🇺🇺🇦 Since the start of Russia's war of aggression in 2022, the EU and its member states have committed more than €200 billion to Ukraine.
But is EU aid to Ukraine really just a one-way street?
