The Berlaymont building in Brussels, headquarters of the European Commission, displaying a large banner reading 'United for our Future 2024 - 2029' . Three flags are visible in front of the building: two EU flags on the sides and a Ukrainian flag in the centre.
Courage. Resilience. Freedom.
Ukraine’s flag carries them all.
On Ukraine’s Flag Day, it proudly stands before our Brussels headquarters.
A sign that Europe is united on Ukraine's side for a just and lasting peace. Today and every day.
Ми з вами. We are with you.
Berlaymont building illuminated at night with the Ukrainian flag projected on its facade — blue and yellow horizontal stripes — in tribute to Ukraine’s Independence Day. Cars pass by on a lit road in the foreground.
Ukraine can always count on Europe.
On the eve of Ukraine’s Independence Day, we have illuminated our headquarters Berlaymont in blue and yellow.
In a tribute to the courage, pain, and hope of a nation walking a hard road.
We are together in building a brighter future.
#StandWithUkraine
A dark blue background features a vertical yellow and blue strip on the left side, representing the Ukrainian flag.

The words "YOUR FREEDOM IS OUR FREEDOM" are written in bold, white uppercase letters on the right side of the image.
Today is Ukraine’s Independence Day.
We celebrate a nation and its people who are bravely resisting Russia’s war of aggression.
For their freedom. Their peaceful future.
We stand by them for as long as it takes for a just and lasting peace.
With Ukraine, unwaveringly.
The bottom of the image has text that reads, "Europe's future is ours to shape" with the word "Together" directly below it in yellow. A logo for the European Parliament is in the bottom right corner.

A smartphone-style warning screen with a red thermometer icon, the word “Temperature”, and the message: “Lower your bills and emissions by choosing A-rated energy label products.” An EU flag appears in the bottom left corner. The background is dark with a gradient, mimicking a system alert.

✅ Less energy
✅ Fewer emissions
✅ More savings

A two-panel cartoon contrasts ocean pollution in the 19th and 21st centuries. Left panel (19th Century): A clear blue ocean contains two fish and a single glass bottle floating on the surface with a note inside that says "HELP!". Right panel (21st Century): The ocean is crowded with plastic bottles and trash, almost no clear water is visible. A fish trapped among the plastic debris is shouting "HELP!" in a speech bubble. The cartoon highlights the dramatic increase in ocean pollution over time.
It's time for action against plastic pollution.
⚠️ Only 9% of plastic is recycled.
⚠️ If current trends continue, plastic production will triple by 2060.
Today, a new negotiation begins toward a global agreement to end plastic pollution.
Our priorities for the agreement ↓
I have spoken with President Zelenskyy on the developments of the last days.
