Today’s visit to @NatGeoMuseum humbled me as a single human in this great, big, colorful world. And thank goodness for the fearless @NatGeo storytellers and explorers who have brought this world to us, in the middle of the city. A refreshing perspective.

Great to meet again, @DamonMacWilson. Democracy is strongest when we work together. The EU values @NEDemocracy's support for independent media, civil society & democratic resilience. And of course, we have strategic interest in Ukraine & Moldova's resistance to Putin’s terror.

Great to meet with @SenatorRicketts ahead of my visit to his home state of Nebraska next week. I thanked him for his support of the Lindsey Graham Sanctioning Russia Act. We agreed that the EU and US must continue to work together to put pressure on Putin's war machine.

A good day for parents. The EU KIDS Act bans under-13s from social media, sets 15 as the age for a personal account, and flips the compliance model — platforms must prove their design is safe BEFORE it reaches kids, not after harm is done. A big shift in how we regulate Big Tech.
Every day our children are engaging with some of the most sophisticated technology ever created. Technology that was not created with their wellbeing in mind. We need to set clear boundaries in the digital world. This is what our KIDS Act will do ↓ nitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1RJZzBnnb…

25 years ago, the #September11 attacks devastated not just the US, but their partners around the world. That morning, the sky was crystal clear. Today, we join #RememberTheSky with @Sept11Memorial, which encourages us to reflect on that day and how the world came together.

After 25 years, the memory of #September11 still echoes around the world. And for 25 years, we have joined our American friends in fighting terrorism, extremism & hate. That commitment endures in today's troubled geopolitical waters. In moments of strife, our alliances matter.

A new political season is underway & #TeamEurope is back together! Some of us returning from a summer break, others are joining the class. With a full EU-US agenda ahead, we are ready for the challenges and opportunities ahead. Great expectations. Great experience. One Europe.

We're committed to diplomacy & tougher sanctions as needed. Glad to host Jonathan Burke @USTreasury for a meeting with EU ambassadors to discuss our close coordination with the US to maintain pressure on Iran & restore regional stability & navigation through the Strait of Hormuz

On this day in 1945, WWII formally ended aboard the USS Missouri. America’s courage and sacrifice were decisive in defeating tyranny and restoring freedom across Europe and beyond. 81 years later, Europeans still remember—and we continue to defend peace and freedom together.

At the G20 meetings in Asheville, the EU made clear: Iran must end its destabilizing activities and engage in good-faith diplomacy. We’ll continue working closely with the US to maintain pressure, support de-escalation, and safeguard freedom of navigation. ec.europa.eu/commission/pres…

Libraries are among our most democratic civic institutions, so of course we brought our #America250 gift, the EU Ambassadors Book Collection, to @SFPublicLibrary. In this digital age, literature matters as much as ever. Thanks Mayor @DanielLurie and @michaelambert for joining us!

The EU & California share a belief that innovation & responsible guardrails can go hand in hand. Excellent meeting with @CAgovernor on AI, clean tech, energy, investment — and how stronger cooperation with a top trading partner can help drive innovation & prosperity for us both.
Great to meet with @EUAmbUS Neliupšienė about California's ongoing economic, climate, and tech partnerships across the European Union. California will always be a trustworthy, reliable partner.

Books bring us together, and no one believed that more than Dolly Parton. Her Imagination Library is a gift that keeps on giving. As a fellow lover of books & stories, I am saddened by Dolly’s passing. Her talent and generosity are adored by fans on both sides of the Atlantic.

Back on the West Coast — because the transatlantic relationship doesn't grow only in Washington! San Francisco is home to our digital policy team, but also to leaders and communities in tech, business, and academia. I am always energized by what is happening here. 🌥️

Coordination within the Coalition of the Willing is essential to provide Ukraine with the comprehensive support it needs to prepare for the coming winter. The EU is accelerating the rollout of the Ukraine Support Loan to support air defence and energy infrastructure. Pressure on the Russian economy and its shadow fleet will continue and increase. Russia must engage seriously in peace negotiations. Escalation is not the solution — diplomacy is. Security in the Black Sea must be restored. Russia must allow Ukrainian grain to reach the rest of the world. Russia is putting global food security at risk. We will move forward with Ukraine’s EU accession process. The future of Ukraine is in the European Union. We will continue to support Ukraine for as long as necessary and provide Ukraine with security guarantees once this terrible war ends, so that it never happens again.

Proud to be in Kyiv to mark Ukraine’s Independence Day, a crucial date in its long struggle for freedom. Today we also pay tribute to all Ukrainians defending their homeland on the frontlines and across the country. Ukraine’s enemies will not prevail. nitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1mxPaZwBk…

We must continue to push for maximum pressure on Russia, including via sanctions. The EU is very much looking for the Graham bill to be passed.
On Ukraine’s Independence Day, we show our unfaltering support. Today, we approved €6.1 billion for the air and missile defence systems, missiles, ammunition and radars that Ukraine urgently needs. Europe stands with you today, tomorrow, and for as long as it takes. З Днем Незалежності! link.europa.eu/79CGjX

160 million movements registered - that means almost 3 million per week, out of which 50,000 people with no right to enter were refused. Delivering real security benefits - the EU’s new Entry Exit system.
