AI: The day in brief Written by AI from the official text — check the source

The European Parliament held a voting day focused on support for Ukraine and internal organizational matters, adopting all three resolutions on the agenda.

  • EU support for Ukraine: Parliament reaffirmed its backing for Ukraine's independence and territorial integrity, condemning Russia's war and Hungary's Prime Minister's visit to Russia, and urging more military aid and sanctions. The Left, Greens, S&D, Renew, EPP, and ECR supported it; Patriots and ESN opposed.
  • Committee sizes: MEPs set the number of members for each standing committee and subcommittee, ranging from 25 to 90, and allowed up to four vice-chairs per committee. The decision takes effect immediately.
  • Delegation sizes: Parliament decided the size of its interparliamentary delegations, grouping them by region and multilateral assemblies, with specific numbers like 64 for the US and 78 for the OACPS-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly, replacing the 2019 decision.
