Many thanks to the co‑rapporteurs @gahler_michael @RobertBiedron for their strong signal on values-based EU external action.

Democracy is what we defend. A breakdown of law and accountability threatens our security. That’s why protecting democracy makes the world —and our future—safer.
Thank you @IDDBrussels @Int_IDEA for your essential work.

"Democracy is a European public good that requires funding; it is infrastructure, without which nothing works" says @spornschlegel. The next MFF is ambitious, aiming for agility and flexibility, yet more coherence between internal & external support would be welcome. #IDDBrussels

The next MFF will be ambitious when it comes to democracy, @EricaGerretsen explains. Agora EU, a new programme, will promote shared values like media freedom. Through Global Gateway, the @EU_Commission will continue supporting civil society actors. #IDDBrussels

"Democracy is not optional. Without it peace is an illusion and security is a lie" he said as he spoke of the courage of those who refuse to stay silent, the citizens who resist and who insist that dignity matters. #IDDBrussels

Pres. Ropke @EESC_President welcomes participants of #IDDBrussels on DAY 2: “Democracy without inclusion is hollow. Security without democracy is repression. And inclusion without security is fragile.” Thank you for your hospitality Mr President, friend of inclusion & democracy!
