Haar vermogen “to put principles above any narrow definition of (national) self-interest” is precies wat Angela Merkel tot een groot Europeaan maakt. 🇪🇺

Vaccineren doe je niet alleen voor jezelf maar ook voor elkaar. Help mee om het zorginfarct te stoppen. Omzien naar elkaar is nu onze burgerplicht! 👩‍⚕️🚨🚑❤️

@MalikAzmani @RenewEurope Gefeliciteerd, collega!

The best protection is early detection. Check yourself and have yourself checked, because breast cancer screening saves lives. #BreastCancerAwarenessMont­h­ #EUCanBeatCancer

We must ensure that no one is left behind in the energy transition. We cannot accept a society where people are left in the cold. The Social Fund can assist in addressing this issue. But the fund must help those who need it the most. Meet the #GreenDeal @EPPGroup team:

Esther de Lange (CDA) do 21 okt 2021, 08:14

@Jouke12 @PartijvdDieren @cdavandaag @lc_nl En dat terwijl ik nietsvermoedend in Straatsburg zat 🤣 (in het Europees Parlement dus voor alle duidelijkheid 🇪🇺)

Esther de Lange (CDA) wo 20 okt 2021, 20:00

The current energy crisis confronts us with the reality of energy dependence in Europe. This is not new. We knew there would be a political price, but now we see what it means. The #GreenDeal won't work if it leaves people literally out in the cold. #EUCO @EPPGroup

Esther de Lange (CDA) wo 20 okt 2021, 17:09

Europe can be proud to be at the forefront of the global vaccination drive, being the biggest exporter of vaccines. But some EU countries are behind in terms of coverage and @EPPGroup expects all the support needed from #EUCO to help them drive up their vaccine rates. #EPP4Health

Esther de Lange (CDA) wo 20 okt 2021, 14:28

Thank you for all your support - Russian Opposition leader Alexei @navalny is the well-deserved laureate of this year's #SakharovPrize for Freedom of Thought!

Mr. Putin, #FreeNavalny. Europe calls for his - and all other political prisoners’ - freedom.

Esther de Lange (CDA) wo 20 okt 2021, 13:47

We see an increasingly divided and toxic debate on the #RuleofLaw in Europe. It is of the utmost importance that the European Council finally takes its responsibility.
You call yourself European leaders. Well, now on this fundamental issue, it is your time to lead. #EUCO

Esther de Lange (CDA) wo 20 okt 2021, 11:32

Our European house is built on a foundation of common values and common rules. If we allow this foundation to be taken apart the entire house we built is in danger. You call yourself European leaders. Well, now on this fundamental issue, it is your time to lead! #EUCO #RuleofLaw

Esther de Lange (CDA) di 19 okt 2021, 19:12

Overall, I believe this outcome is good for our economy, the health of our banks and consumer protection. @Europarl_EN and @EUCouncil now need to work on an agreement on the remaining part of the file, concerning out-of-court collateral recovery of secured business loans (AECE).

Esther de Lange (CDA) di 19 okt 2021, 19:12

Second, this EU secondary market will be accompanied by proper consumer protection. Credit servicers will be authorised and supervised, a code of conduct for relations with debtors is required and fees + penalties are capped.

Esther de Lange (CDA) di 19 okt 2021, 19:12

First, the agreement allows for a harmonised, European secondary market for NPLs. This means banks can more easily reduce the NPLs on their balance sheets. A reduction of NPLs helps to increase lending to the real economy, which is especially welcome after the Covid crisis.

Esther de Lange (CDA) di 19 okt 2021, 19:12

Happy to announce that today @Europarl_EN officially approved the agreement on a secondary market for non-performing loans (#NPLs). @itinagli and I negotiated this deal before summer - read more on that w @EPPGroup 👉 eppgroup.eu/newsroom/news/…
A short summary of the results ⤵️

Esther de Lange (CDA) ma 18 okt 2021, 16:50

Klimaatbeleid is hard nodig, maar we moeten eerlijk zijn over de gevolgen ervan. Dit beleid kan grote gevolgen hebben voor het welzijn van alle Europeanen. Als dat het geval is, verwachten we als @EPPGroup dat de @EU_Commission daar transparant over is. #FarmToFork

Esther de Lange (CDA) ma 18 okt 2021, 16:50

Het nieuws dat de @EU_Commission een onderzoek over de negatieve gevolgen van de #Farm2Fork-plannen heeft achtergehouden is zorgwekkend. We hebben volledige transparantie nodig over de gevolgen van de plannen van Timmermans bij de overgang naar een duurzamere economie.

Esther de Lange (CDA) ma 18 okt 2021, 15:59

De rest praat erover, Europa doet het gewoon: de EU is de grootste exporteur van Covid-vaccins en heeft al meer dan 1 miljard vaccins naar 150 landen uitgevoerd, en ondertussen al 75% van de eigen volwassenen gevaccineerd. 🇪🇺💉 europa-nu.nl/id/vln5f73ttq­z…­

Naar deze man is het (oude) gebouw van de Europese Raad in Brussel vernoemd. Soms zou je willen dat er iets meer van zijn redelijkheid en ratio was blijven hangen daar…

Four years ago #DaphneCaruanaGalizia was assassinated for exposing corruption and abuse. Today we honour her and the freedom of expression she stood for. All of us must continue her fight for justice - we cannot, and will not, stand down.

Interne verkiezingen en het correct gebruiken van fondsen. Het was een week waarin de leden van het Parlement hun stem lieten horen. Wat onze oproep was, hoor je in deze 'De Lange Week'

Shocked and saddened to learn of the killing of Sir David Amess MP, while visiting constituents and serving his community. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones. bbc.com/news/uk-589305…

Stoer en sterk: #Plattelandsvrouwen zijn powervrouwen. Daarom verdienen ze het op de International Day of #RuralWomen om eens extra in het zonnetje te worden gezet - wat denk jij @ElineVedder?

I am proud to support #EUFluDay because after two years of Covid, we cannot have a flu pandemic on top of it. Our doctors, nurses and carers are already working around the clock. This year's flu shot is more important than ever - go and get it to protect yourself and others!

Esther de Lange (CDA) do 14 okt 2021, 18:42

As the #COVID19 pandemic has forced many of us to work and study from home behind our computer, the strain on our eyes has increased. Please look after your eyes and have regular checks. #LoveYourEyes #worldsightday #wsd #ECV

Russian opposition leader Alexey @navalny is the @EPPGroup's candidate and one of the three finalists of the @Europarl_EN 2021 #SakharovPrize for Freedom of Thought. He - and with him so many brave activists - deserve our support. #FreeNavalny

More roaming, less costs! Thank you @AngelikaWinzig and @rozathun, who are lowering phone bills for all Europeans by taking down excessive #roaming costs. Delivering concrete results for all of citizens, that's what being part of the @EPPGroup is about. 🇪🇺

Esther de Lange (CDA) wo 13 okt 2021, 18:43

It is critical to establish new frameworks in the medium and long term, such as researching the idea of collectively purchasing gas supplies. Have a look at the @EU_Commission's toolbox right here ➡️ ec.europa.eu/energy/topics/…

#energyprices

Esther de Lange (CDA) wo 13 okt 2021, 18:43

The Commission has taken an important step in the fight against rapidly growing #energyprices. In the short term, Member States can cut energy prices by using existing frameworks, such as the adjustment of energy tax rates. #energycrisis

Esther de Lange (CDA) wo 13 okt 2021, 18:25

The recovery funds must not fall into criminal hands. Today the @Europarl_EN spoke with @EUAntiFraud, @EU_Commission and @Europol about anti-fraud mechanisms. I call on all Member States to use the EU data tool to help detect fraud (and make @EUAntiFraud’s work easier). #RRF
