Congratulations to @RobertAbela_MT on your electoral victory. Malta plays a central role in the Mediterranean. A region ever more strategic for Europe’s future. So let’s continue our cooperation.

Malta led overall growth. Growth expectations remain positive despite rising uncertainty. Strong momentum, rising wages, measures cushioning price increases, and a falling deficit. The European Commission’s opinion speaks for itself. - RA

Honoured to welcome @EU_Commission Executive VP @RaffaeleFitto. During our meeting, I reaffirmed that #EU #CohesionPolicy is crucial for #Malta & stressed the need for a flexible post-2027 MFF that reflects the realities of small island states. - RA

Welcomed Executive Vice-President of the European Commission, @HennaVirkkunen, alongside Prime Minister @RobertAbela_MT and Ministers @SilvioSchembri and @byroncamilleri. Our discussion focused on strengthening Europe’s digital competitiveness, safeguarding critical infrastructure, and ensuring resilient connectivity—priorities of particular importance for Malta as an island Member State.

Honoured Malta is first in the EU to have IMF Article IV surveillance moved to a 24-month cycle from a 12-month one. This testifies our economic success and IMF's trust in our policy direction. I also welcome IMF's conclusion that we can deliver on Malta Vision 2050. - RA

Had a truly inspiring exchange with Mr Koen Lenaerts, the President of the Court of Justice of the @europeanunion. In the face of legal and institutional challenges, the Court's contribution to safeguarding the legal order has never been more indispensable. - RA

Had a good call with Ukraine’s DPM @TarasKachka on Ukraine’s EU accession path. Commended progress on key reforms, reaffirmed Malta’s strong support for Ukraine’s membership, and underlined the importance of a merit-based process and EU unity moving forward.

While global uncertainty is on the rise, Fitch Ratings confirm our country as an A economy and state “Malta has one of the strongest growth performances among Fitch rated sovereigns”. Prosperity and stability remain our focus. - RA

Today I spoke with @vonderleyen to wish her well on the start of her new @EU_Commission. I wholeheartedly thank @helenadalli for all her work and wish @GlennMicallef the best of luck in his upcoming tenure. 🇲🇹 #Malta is proud.

Late last night, I welcomed @EUCouncil President-elect @antoniolscosta to #Malta, ahead of important talks with @MaltaGov @RobertAbela_MT in #Valletta today. We look forward to extend our collaboration in implementing the EU Strategic Agenda in coming years.

Yet again the @EU_Commission revised upwards its economic forecast for Malta. At 5% this year we will again have the highest growth among all countries, more than five times the EU average. Inflation and unemployment will both continue to decline. - RA
