Permanent Representation of Poland to the EU

PM @donaldtusk at EUCO 🇪🇺 Today’s key focus is - Europe’s security & competitiveness: • Russian war in Ukraine • ⁠Energy prices • Competitiveness & Single Market • ⁠Middle East • Next MFF • Defence & security • Migration Discussions, decisions, cooperation. 🇵🇱🤝🇪🇺

📍#Brussels | Prime Minister @DonaldTusk is taking part in an informal meeting on migration.

Minister @ignacyn at the Competitiveness and Security Bussiness Summit: "EU's security depends on its economic strength. That strenght can only be built when two conditions are met: 1. lower energy prices 2. the true Single Market"

EU Ministers @BenjaminHaddad, @ignacyn and a panel of experts joined a fireside chat co-organised by @VisegradInsight at the @PLintheEU in Brussels. The key takeaway of the talk was that democracy in Europe faces a systemic threat that no single government, institution, or expert network can address on its own. shorturl.at/G8Ufq
