We are deeply saddened by the passing of Emma Bonino, longtime Italian liberal leader and former European Commissioner.
A fearless liberal and lifelong champion of freedom, human rights and a stronger Europe, she leaves an extraordinary legacy in Italy and across our continent.
Our heartfelt condolences go to her family, friends and our colleagues in Italy.
Delighted to present my views on sustainability and security of Europe in the World Giverny Forum @CercledeGiverny in France.

Kurbusega sain teada endise peaministri ja @EU_Commission asepresidendi Siim Kallase lahkumisest.
Mõtlen julgusele, mida nõudis riigi ülesehitamine ja oma valuuta käibelevõtt 1990. aastate alguses ning vaiksele veendumusele, mille ta aastaid hiljem Brüsselisse kaasa tõi. Eesti ja Euroopa on tema elutöö tõttu paremad.
@kajakallas ja kogu pere: mul on teie kaotuse pärast südamest kahju. Soovin teile sel raskel ajal jõudu ja soojust.
Honored to be welcomed at the Massachusetts State House in Boston by Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll, State Senator Michael Rodrigues, and State Representatives Tony Cabral and Tommy Vitolo. A valuable opportunity to reinforce the strong ties between Portugal and Massachusetts
