Biodiversity targets need local action
At #COP17 in Yerevan, Roby Biwer is making the case for cities and regions to have a real say, and the resources to deliver, in protecting and restoring nature.
Because ambition only matters if we can deliver it locally

🇷🇸 They protested. They organised. They voted. And they won.
Serbia’s student-led movement has turned nearly two years of mobilisation into a historic electoral victory.
This was not just a protest movement in a few big cities. Support spread across the whole country.

Millions of Brazilians have made their voices heard, reminding the world of the extraordinary powe…
“Cities and regions were the first responders. They must also be systematically involved in what comes next.”
@AntjeGrotheer calls for long-term certainty for displaced Ukrainians: whether they return home or build their future in our communities.
Climate targets are European. Delivery is local.
Since 1990, emissions have fallen across much of the EU but progress between regions remains deeply uneven.
Cities and regions need the means and a real say to make the green transition faster and fairer. 🌍

🇽🇰 EU integration must bring visible change to people’s lives.

Our Members met @MatthewOToole2 Leader of the Opposition in the @niassembly , to discuss the situation in Northern Ireland and EU–UK relations.
Dialogue and cooperation remain key to addressing shared challenges. 🤝
What does love have to do with politics? Everything. ❤️
It’s in the homes we fight for, the people we stand up for and the communities we care for. From our progressive cities and regions across Europe, love is something we put into action.
Vamos @PSOE 🔥💪

A budget is a choice about the future we want, and whose needs we put first.
Europe’s next long-term budget must mean homes people can afford; quality jobs and public healthcare they can rely on. It must give communities the means to thrive, wherever they are, and invest in a greener, more innovative and secure Europe.
PES Presidency adopted a declaration on the EU budget for 2028–2034, setting out progressive priorities.
Our message is clear: financing must be consistent with our shared ambitions.
We need resilient and sustainable revenue streams to protect social policy, cohesion and agriculture, finance European public goods and new priorities, convergence on new genuine own resources will be key to a balanced overall agreement.

Weakening shared management means more power for governments, less scrutiny
With Orbán yesterday and potentially Le Pen tomorrow, is that a risk Europe should take?

From #EURegionsWeek to the @EU_CoR plenary, a week of exchanges and political action under "Strong regions, strong Europe".
Empowering regions, protecting cohesion policy and ensuring a fair green transition are key to delivering social justice and a stronger Europe for all ✊
La Russie attaque l’UE : aéroports, systèmes informatiques, dirigeants.
Il est urgent de mobiliser notre industrie pour produire des armements modernes, notamment des drones afin de dissuader Moscou et défendre une Ukraine souveraine."

“The future of the Western Balkans cannot be built on myths, denial, and glorification of war criminals. Serbia must show that Europe's future matters more than its dark nationalistic past.”
@KlisovicJosko backs @EU_CoR resolution condemning glorification of war criminals in 🇷🇸.
Protecting food security means protecting the common #agricultural market.
With the just adopted @EU_CoR opinion, @AlessioMammi warns that a common market cannot depend on 27 national budgets. Mandatory 30% co-financing risks fragmenting support and disadvantaging farmers.
EU environmental rules only work when they are implemented.
@stef_proietti ’s opinion calls for stable rules, funding and expertise for cities and regions simplifying delivery without weakening protection. #CoRplenary
