A visit to Pearse Stadium with the Gaelic Athletic Association was a powerful reminder of how deeply sport is woven into Irish identity and the European way of life. The @EPPGroup spirit is also one of teamwork, unity and shared purpose - values that sport reflects every day across our continent. Sport is one of the most powerful forces bringing people together. It must remain a tool for peace, not division, promoting dialogue between cultures and strengthening mutual respect and solidarity across societies. The EPP Group believes in the European Sport Model: inclusive, community-driven and deeply rooted in our societies. #EPPStudyDays

The future of the global economy will be shaped by how effectively the transatlantic partnership can strengthen open trade, resilience and fair competition. Trade and investment links remain at the heart of the EU-US relationship. Over 900 US-owned companies support around 245,000 jobs in Ireland alone, which is just one of the EU’s 27 Member States. Strengthening transatlantic economic cooperation is essential to ensuring growth, stability and opportunity on both sides of the Atlantic. #EPPStudyDays @DolorsMM @ReinholdLopatka @ManfredWeber

In an increasingly uncertain world, safeguarding global security is one of our greatest challenges. The transatlantic alliance remains the cornerstone of our collective security, but Europe must also step up. Building a stronger, more integrated European Defence Union is key to meeting today’s challenges and safeguarding peace. #EPPStudyDays @ZovkoEU @GaelleRPiche @AlexGrayForOK @ReginaDo

From trade and investment to shared values and security, the transatlantic bond matters more than ever. An important discussion with Helen McEntee, Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade on Ireland's unique role as a bridge between Europe and the United States - and on how we can strengthen that partnership for the future. #EPPStudyDays @HMcEntee @ManfredWeber @AndrzejHalicki @ZovkoEU @SMuresan @IuliuWinkler

The best ideas often emerge when people come together. The EPP Group Study Days are more than politics. They are about bringing people together, learning from one another, and building the relationships that help us tackle Europe's challenges as one team. #EPPStudyDays @SimonHarrisTD @SeanKellyMEP @ninacarberry

At Knock Shrine, we were reminded that unity is one of Europe's greatest strengths.    As a political family with Christian democratic roots, the @EPPGroup believes that our European way of life is built on values that bring people together: responsibility, solidarity, respect for human dignity, and service to the common good.    In a changing world, preserving that unity remains essential for Europe's future.    #EPPStudyDays

A special moment at Knock Shrine during the @EPPGroup Study Days in Galway.    This place has welcomed generations of people seeking hope, reflection and community. These are also values that matter deeply to our democracies: respect for human dignity, solidarity and a commitment to the common good.    As Europe faces new challenges, we are reminded that strong societies are built not only on institutions, but also on the values that bring people together.    #EPPStudyDays

The @EPPGroup Study Days kick off in Galway 🇪🇺🇮🇪 From transatlantic relations to global security, the challenges facing Europe demand strong leadership and close partnerships. With Ireland set to assume the EU Presidency in July, these discussions could not be more timely. As our MEP @MariaWalshEU said: “With solid, reliable leadership from Ireland and Europe, we can build bridges based on shared values and mutually beneficial partnerships.” #EPPStudyDays

Questa mattina a Roma, con il Gruppo PPE, abbiamo vissuto un momento di grande valore: l’udienza privata con Sua Santità Papa Leone XIV. Un incontro che arriva in una fase complessa per il contesto internazionale, in cui il tema della pace torna ad essere centrale e non può prescindere da valori come giustizia, dignità e solidarietà tra i popoli. All’inizio della giornata abbiamo anche approfondito il tema della libertà religiosa, confrontandoci con Mairead McGuinness, già Commissaria europea e oggi inviata speciale dell’UE per la libertà religiosa. Un’occasione di dialogo e riflessione che rafforza la consapevolezza di quanto siano fondamentali il confronto, la cooperazione e il rispetto reciproco per costruire un’Europa all’altezza delle sfide globali. #eppstudydays @eppgroup

Στο περιθώριο των «Ημερών Μελέτης» του @EPPGroup, είχα μια πολύ ενδιαφέρουσα συζήτηση με τον υπουργό Γεωργίας και Αλιείας της Πορτογαλίας και πρώην ευρωβουλευτή @JMFernandesEU. Ανταλλαξαμε απόψεις και ιδέες για τη στήριξη των γεωργών και την ενθάρυνσή τους για ανάπτυξη και εφαρμογή τεχνολογιών που συμβάλουν στην οικοδόμηση ενός πιο βιώσιμου και αποδοτικού συστήματος τροφίμων. #eppstudydays #agriculturalpolicy #Cyprus #MEP #Europe #EuropeanParliament #DISY
