The EU will continue to provide robust support to #Ukraine. Financial, humanitarian, and political.
But Ukraine needs more.
We are ready to play an important role in Ukraine's reconstruction.
The destruction is massive. And so are the needs.
@P_Fiala
We understand the serious consequences due to inflation and high prices.
It is the responsibility of the EU to take the right decisions. We will cooperate, coordinate and work together.
I am confident that we will be able to make progress on this important topic. @P_Fiala
Together we must live up to our goal of phasing out Russian gas, oil and coal.
By diversifying our energy sources, bolstering energy efficiency and speeding up renewable and low-energy sources.
You will have the important task of leading the negotiations on these topics.
At the Memorial of Milada Horáková in Prague.
In these dark times in Europe, her fight to preserve democratic institutions is a powerful symbol.
Today her legacy is more important than ever.
