@EU_Commission You don't speak for me on this matter, and it is not your place to do so.

This account is supposed to be "News and information from the European Commission" not "strongly opinionated editorials from some unnamed person about world affairs."

This is not your job. We aren't paying you to do this. The EU commission exists to write legislation for the EU.

Is there some channel that only gives news from the EU and not your opinion, whoever you are?

@EU_Commission #COP28 ? You mean the meeting in one of the biggest oil exporters in the world, whose President is the head of their national oil company and also a a very vocal climate denier?

It would have been better for the EU to boycott it. To be honest, if I described what a fit punishment would be for Al Jaber deliberately sabotaging our efforts against the climate and helping to doom all our children, I'd be thrown off this site.

@EU_Commission Fossil fuels are destroying any hope of a future for all our children. Perhaps this horrible thing is necessary but bragging about it is going too far.

@EU_Commission More public transportation means both fewer cars and better transportation for the majority of us. Keep up the good work!

@EU_Commission Hear, hear!

Attoseconds are so short that if you had one attosecond for each EU resident, that would still total far less than a nanosecond - a billionth of a second!

Also, reading about how poorly Karikó was treated in the US over years does not make one want to work in the United States...

@EU_Commission Hey, just want to say how happy I am to be here in the EU (we moved here almost eight years ago from the US).

We don't have kids, but spending our tax money on teaching kids how to think for themselves is the best use of it I can imagine.

Keep up the good work!

@EU_Commission I feel like I'm cheating here, I knew all the answers except (of course) the last one.

The EU is really one of the best things to happen to humanity, which is why I left the US in 2016 for the Netherlands, never to return.

Keep up the good work! More people should know the benefits of being in the EU.

@dansup I am here as a refuge from Twitter and Facebook. I would prefer they not come here.
