63 years, since in 1963 the catastrophe of Skopje’s earthquake brought about an unprecedented wave of solidarity across political divides. Architectural results more mixed…
Today we honour the memory of the more than 1,000 victims of the 1963 Skopje earthquake and all those affected by it. Today we also remember the solidarity of 87 countries that stood with Skopje in its darkest hour, making the city a lasting symbol of international solidarity.
Together with the people of Skopje, the EU Delegation joined today’s official commemoration to honour the victims. We remember. We stand together.

An owned continent: When Trump ordered them to, Northern European leaders jumped to raise their military spending to an absurd 5% of GDP (far more than 🇺🇸spends). Then they come to Brussels and freak out over a proposed 🇪🇺budget increase from 1.1% to 1.26%. Loyalty to America over loyalty to Europe.
Northern leaders want to cut an EU budget already on a shoestring
EU national leaders keep saying they want a union that “does more.” Then they show up in Brussels asking it to spend less.

New 🇪🇺 communication campaign incoming? The EU. Simply unpredictable.
Albania had earlier set its sights on 2030 as the year for possible accession, but on Friday, Rama dismissed speculation about timing. “There are three things you can’t predict: God, sex, and the EU,” he said. www.euractiv.com/news/three-t...
What does the EU Growth Plan really mean in everyday life? Less waiting, easier SEPA transfers, better student dorms, faster internet, more digital services. In the coming weeks, follow real stories of the changes already happening and how they affect us all. #EUGrowthPlan #WeGrowTogether
💥SCOOP: Orbán's regime not only granted asylum to North Macedonia's fugitive ex-PM Gruevski—but also Hungarian citizenship in 2022, justified by "Hungarian state interest." This may shield him from extradition even under Péter Magyar's government. More in our newsletter: vsquare.org/goulash-orba...

In 2026, the Russian economy is under growing strain. War-driven growth is fading, sanctions are tightening, reserves are shrinking, and the long-term costs of war are becoming harder to hide. #RussiaIsLosing #StandWithUkraine
Ambassador Michalis Rokas: “On Europe Day today 🇪🇺, I am pleased to share the message of President @eucopresident.consilium.europa.eu , to the citizens of North Macedonia. A strong message about peace, unity & common prosperity - as future member of the European Union 🇪🇺🤝🇲🇰”
🇪🇺 - Orban (🇭🇺) + Radev (🇧🇬) + Jansa (🇸🇮) = ? Is this still a net win?
🇧🇬 turnout at 13:00 —> 23.6% (2024: 17.4%). Significant increase, but still on the low side internationally
Parliamentary elections on 🇧🇬 today - the 8th time in the last 5 years. Main questions: 1. Will former President Radev’s (picture similar) Progressive Bulgaria get more than 30% of the vote? 2. Will they gain an absolute majority? (unlikely) 3. Will he form a coalition or a minority government? 1/4
Fantastic series by @dekoder.org on the German occupation of Donbas in WW2, informative and entertaining. Unfortunately so far only in German. Gives an entire new meaning to the term doom scrolling… Recommended 👇
