The good thing about the #drone appearances over European airports is that they force interior ministers to finally work on actual threats to our societies, and maybe have less time to waste on all those imagined threats like #migration, #antifa, #FreePalestine, and #GoingDark.
Respect for the rule of law is a must for all EU funding.
The proposed future EU budget makes that commitment steadfast.
That is why we are proposing:
✅ Robust safeguards to ensure respect for the rule of law and fundamental rights
✅ Strong incentives to uphold the rule of law and support civil society
✅ Clear conditionalities – breaches must be addressed, or payments can be suspended
Our shared values are essential for Europe’s democracy, security and economic stability.

Then stop #ProtectEU (#GoingDark) and #ChatControl immediately.
Otherwise this is just a giant heap of hypocrisy.
