The #EU must step up to promote education for minority and regional languages - I said today in @EP_Petitions. 🇪🇺
@EU_Commission must not ignore the cutting of teaching German as #minority language in Poland.
Every child deserves to learn in their mother tongue!

🤝 Had a meaningful meeting with @OliverPaasch, PM of the German-speaking community in Belgium.

We're committed to strengthening cooperation between @FUEN_Info and Ostbelgien. Their experience in #minority protection is inspiring for our member organizations. (1/2)

Today I spoke at the European Non-Territorial Autonomy Network conference.

The word #autonomy faces hostility in many European states. Plus, #minority rights are overlooked, hindering cultural diversity.

Cultural autonomy could empower minorities to be seen as equal citizens.

🇪🇺#EU accession requires respect for #minority rights and therefore upholding agreements and European treaties is vital.

Grateful for Commissioner @OliverVarhelyi insights, Prof. @tovemalloy presentation and the comments from #MEP colleagues and minority representatives. (2/2)

We condemn in the strongest terms the offensive discourse targeting the Slovenian 🇸🇮 #minority in Austria 🇦🇹.

The statements of the youth of the Carinthian Freedom Party are unacceptable and go against our #European values.
RT @FUEN_Info: The Freiheitliche Jugend Kärntens recently called on Instagram to vote SPÖ out of power in order to stop the "Slovenification" of the country. We condemn the statements against the Slovenes in Carinthia/Kärnten/Koroška.

To address the flaws in #minority protection, we would need a common framework of global & #EU standards.

Notably in the #EU, the incorporation of the respect for the rights of national minorities in the annual rule of law monitoring cycle would be a major step. @UN_HRC

RT @npldeu: @MASureda and @vinczelorant met at the European Parliament to discuss, in the framework of the #Minority Intergroup meetings, actions to include #Catalan, #Basque, #Galician and other RMLs in the Online Language Support (OLS) platform of the Erasmus + Programme.

Unfortunately, in the EU Member States we can still see that the application of #democracy is sometimes selective, especially when it comes to #minority education rights. 4/4

After 30 years of UN Declaration of Minority Rights still more commitment and real actions are needed to recognize the importance of #minorityrights.
