I pay tribute to Pope Francis, whose visit to 🇲🇹 remains deeply cherished. His pontificate was defined by tireless efforts for peace, a strong voice for the vulnerable & significant reforms in the Catholic Church. On behalf of @MaltaGov I send my condolences to the Holy See. - RA

While the Commission revised down the prospects for the EU, its experts once again concluded that Malta’s expansion will be higher than previously expected. They also lowered the expected path of inflation. Progressive decisions make a real difference in people’s lives. - RA

Brussels for #EUCELAC. The EU needs to forge stronger global partnerships, building relations on trade as well as cultural & political ones. This is a foundation for further growth & cooperation, incl. to bridge investment gaps for socially just green & digital transitions. - RA

Heartfelt appreciation to prison inmates who carried out professional maintenance at the ministry. They learnt new skills as part of their rehab. It was nice to share a bite and exchange views during this festive season. Will strive to make prison an orderly rehab centre.
