Tin bota Emilia-Romagna. L'Europa è con voi.

President von der Leyen was today on the ground in Italy to witness the heartbreaking devastation caused by last week’s floods.

But Italy is not alone, the #EUSolidarity is already in action.

The #EUCivilProtectionMechanism has been activated, and 9 countries have offered their help 🇦🇹🇧🇬🇩🇪🇫🇷🇵🇱🇷🇴🇸🇮🇸🇰🇧🇪.

This means 114 people on the ground who have pumped up the equivalent water of 133 Olympic-sized swimming pools.

We will keep working by your side.
