Want to know the State of our Union? Look at the state of our #water and #climate.
Harvests lost. Workers facing extreme heat. Families without clean, affordable water.
My message to @vonderleyen: we must answer a simple question: how will we make peopleās lives safer? #SOTEU

A just transition in shipping needs a common, predictable global framework that drives decarbonisation & preserves the ambition of @IMOHQ 2023 GHG strategy.
This is about people who depend on movement of goods + people, & on cleaner air + ocean.

Chairing the @Europarl_EN ENVIāTRAN delegation at the International Maritime Organization this week, as global talks on shippingās future reach a critical moment.
At stake: a global net-zero framework that cuts emissions and keeps competition fair.
My message is clear ā¬ļø

We cannot afford a fragmented transition.
No common rules = uneven effort, distorted markets, and shifting economic activity.
For island states like Malta, this is real. Shipping is our lifeline: for food, business, and connection. When rules diverge, we feel it first.

This is about climate leadership, but also fairness. We need ambition and alignment for solutions that work in peopleās everyday lives.
Because this isnāt just about emissions.
Itās about people. š

Mediterranean fishers cannot be left alone against fuel shocks triggered by geopolitics. That was my message in @EP_Fisheries.
@EU_MARE has now activated the crisis mechanism. Member States must ensure support reaches their fishers quickly & fairly.

Under the emergency mechanism, Member States may grant two types of crisis support:
1) Financial compensation to operators in the fishery and aquaculture sector for income foregone and additional costs;
2) Storage aid for fishery producer organisations

Youths in Malta continue to show they are not only the future, but the conscience of the present. Their voices are leading a responsible call against the abusive use of #AI, including #deepfakes and fake images created without consent. @RobertAbela_MT

These practices seriously violate privacy, dignity, and fundamental rights, harming the most vulnerable. Our digital reality is moving faster than the laws meant to protect people, making action urgent and necessary.

It is encouraging to see @MaltaGov listen and respond. When governments work with civil society and young people, we build trust and a safer, more humane digital society - one where innovation serves people, not the other way around.

2025 reminded me why I believe #politics must be human-centred.
Not abstract.
Not distant.
Not reduced to numbers or rhetoric.
Every decision we take eventually lands on someoneās life.

From a small-state perspective, abstraction is a luxury we donāt have.
In #Malta, water scarcity isnāt theoretical. Connectivity sustains livelihoods. Fisheries are families and communities. Growth means little without wellbeing.
