Farmers are being hit by the consequences of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
This week, we proposed a measure to allow EU countries to pay a one-off lump sum to farmers and agri-food businesses affected by significant increases in input costs.
Democracy, peace, individual and economic freedom.
This is what Europe stands for today when the war rages again on our continent. This is at the heart of the Conference on the future of Europe.
The EU has to continue to deliver on EU citizens' expectations.
They are the founding mothers and fathers of our Union.
They dedicated their lives to bringing Europeans closer together.
And they all shared one common aspiration: peace.
Ahead of #EuropeDay and as the war in Ukraine rages on, we recall their legacy.
How do Europeans envision the Union of tomorrow?

Internet must reinforce our core democratic principles and our fundamental freedoms.
The EU, the US and several partners proposed a Declaration for the Future of Internet to make it safe and trusted for everyone, and to ensure that it serves our individual freedom.

Before we get all 'The Sky is Falling' with Alt-Right knuckleheads migrating to specific instances that cater to them, remember:
1. The block feature actually works here and should be used liberally if you see bad faith arguers or worse.
2. Instance-level personal blocks can be executed on the web client by going to the user, opening the additional […] menu and clicking 'Hide all from this instance'.
3. Petition your local moderating team to ban and suspend instances outright. We'll listen!
