Since its foundation in 1976, the European People’s Party (EPP) has advocated in favour of a strong, transparent and efficient Europe at the service of its citizens. The 2014 European Elections marked the fourth victory for the EPP and reaffirmed the party as the leading political force in Europe. Every day the renewed trust of the European citizens is the driving inspiration for the EPP’s activities. Being the largest political party entails the great responsibility to deliver on all those issues which matter the most to our citizens: jobs and economic stability, competitiveness, security, and prosperity.
We are committed to working with our member parties and associations, our heads of state and government, our ministers in the EPP Ministerial Meetings, President Tusk, President Juncker and the EPP Commissioners, and our Group in the European Parliament to achieve these objectives and to promote our values, which we derive from our Christian Democrat tradition: the dignity of the human being, freedom, responsibility, equality, truth, justice, solidarity and subsidiarity.
We are aware of the importance of being united as well as the privilege of our differences, and of the importance of reaching our citizens and being more accessible in an increasingly interconnected reality. We wish to offer the openness, dialogue and opportunity for debate which has always distinguished our political family.
President
Secretary General
The EPP Manifesto, also adopted at the 2012 EPP Congress in Bucharest, outlines the basic principles of the Party summarising who we are, what our values are, what challenges are we facing and what vision we have for the future. The Manifesto was developed in parallel to the EPP Platform document within the EPP Working Group 1 for “European Policy”.
What we believe and what we will do for Europe.
Poland🇵🇱 is celebrating centenary of its independence today. Best wishes to our Polish friends enjoying Święto Niepodległości!
Great independent anniversary
After the PiS government and the PiS president has organized a march in which 200,000 fascists from Poland and fascist guests from abroad take part, the governments of democratic countries should break off diplomatic relations with Poland. Poland is ruled by fascists
"And then I told them that I wouldn't let Orban close CEU and continue his attacks on civil society, and they believed me!" :D
This is the guy you’re blindly supporting: cpj.org/2018/11/hungarian-authorities-bring-criminal-charges-again.php
Campaigning by excluding Fidesz from the EPP seems like unprofitable! Right, Mr. Stubb? Thank God!
A Fidesz kizáratásával kampányolni úgy tűnik, nem kifizetődő, Hála Istennek!
nekem akkor lesz hiteles ha megállítja ésx kizárja a fideszt a soraiból.Másképpen ő is olyan mint Orbán!
Clapping assholes who have not read anything ever about European history. Now you have the piece of paper signed by Orban which would bring "peace for our time". He will further destroy this rotten system down from within like cancer.
Hungarian court ruled that Viktor Orbán had committed genocide against his people when he did not take care of cripples, left them to their fate. the EPP can be proud of Viktor Orbán... Erdogan would also be eligible for membership. Since 2012, 460,000 cripples have disappeared from Hungary ... their fate is unknown!
During EPP Congress Manfred Weber, the current chairman of the EPP Group in the European Parliament, was elected as the new Lead Candidate ahead of the European elections in 2019.

Acest Weber este marele prieten al României?!
You had a choice between your conservative tradition respectful of European values and the shift to the far right embodied by Viktor Orbán. You chose the latter and your voters are not stupid: those who want democracy will go towards the centre and those who want fascism will go to the real fascists. And you will end up in the dustbin of history as those who helped Europe go towards the new 1930s...

The banksters have already decided everything for us and you are licking their boots every day ! Do you really think we citizens have anything to say ? Even you people who are paid for that, you would not listen...

Too bad. Alex Stubb would have been a great figure at the EU COM’s head. Manfred represents the old guard.
Great to see such a hypocritical lier elected as your head: two weeks ago he was telling everyone that he would not accept Orbán attaching academic freedom and civil society, and now he is kicking his boots and staying silent over these issues. Shame on you for playing with the far right, EPP!

I wouldn't be so proud with a dictator in their midst. I don't know if they are so ignorant or they just don't care.
Such a great panorama of hypocritical politicians who do not care that their ally Viktor Orban is not only violating EU treaties but also trampling the EPP charter.
Magyarorszagnak és európának addig jó mig ilyen politikusok vannak lesznek mint Orbán Viktor.A liberalizmus jelenleg eggyenlő a népirtásal

Mare DREPTATE are! Ce ne facem fraților cu românașii noștri care gândesc 'fragmentat'. Am auzit o persoană în vârstă,bucuroasă că au câștigat alegerile cei din PSD,spunând că dacă respectă măcar 30% din promisiunile făcute în campanie,ar fi bine. De ce și pentru ce să gândim așa?
PRanuAi mare dreptate Europa este condusa de homosexuali care vor sa puna mana pe bogatiile Romaniei si lupta greu de tot pt CIOLAN
EPP leaders are very antitalent people, 1st of all Weber.
Can someone explain I don’t understand? What does it all mean. Peace from Lynn Appleby

How come when Manfred Weber is asked questions on Hungary, he gives "answers" on...Romania?! He is nothing else but an opportunist (best case scenario!)
Chorizos y nazis en Europa
He is so glad that he’s getting away with lying to everyone about standing up to Orban against attacks on academic freedom and civil society in Hungary. Of course he did nothing! Shame on you Herr Weber!
EPP-!You are supposed to fight FOR the free ,Christian Europe, ..vou know...??🤗🎆

Cyprus is there and supporting EU .
Congratulations and best regards to Manfred Weber our #spitzenkandidat for the European Election 2019! #StrongerTogether for a #BetterEurope🇪🇺
Great to see that Weber has already betrayed his promises by doing absolutely against Orbán’s attacks on academic freedom and civil society in Hungary. Power over values, that’s the EPP’s essence.

Where is your red line, Weber? Why did you say that you would not accept Orbán’s attacks on civil society? You have betrayed your promises even before being nominated, pathetic...

It's official! Manfred Weber is EPP #Spitzenkandidat 👉http://weber.epp.eu/ #StrongerTogether .Stay tuned for the press conference - we will be back live soon!
The election was about the future direction of the EU - does EU return to its roots (a strong, cooperative EU of the strong, independent nations) or becomes a "United States of Europe" without independent nations, led by the non-elected bureaucracy of Brussels, along liberal internationalism? The finnish candidate would have led the EU to the latter. The newly elected Mr. Weber hopefully has intentions towards a strong EU of independent nations along Christian democracy. Go for strong Germany, Strong Hungary, and all the other strong EU countries, in order to reach a stronger EU, based on Christian democracy!
Ha nekik Orbán kell, hát vigyék, de tartsák is ott!!! Majd szétveri ott is a fékeket-ellensúlyokat, meg a demokráciát!!! Putyin nagyon fog örülni!!!
Congratulations Mr Weber. Please treat hard Mr Orbán.
Why not Mr Orbán? Orbán Viktor the Hungarian king! Very sad!
Time to fire Orbán and Kurz
It is official: I will not vote for EPP. I will not vote for a German Europe.
nu stiu ce super vedeti la parlamentarii europeni cand nici nu i cunoasteti iar pe ai nostri ii spurcati ca la usa cortului
England's decision to leave this bunch of morons gets validated everyday.
With a project of a better Europe we will win the election and save europeans from a blind populism #forzaManfred
Yes Atilla. Romanien is a big country but , be carefully I don' t want didcuss about your small country. I asked who is this Orban.. Is a traveller in our country who look for beg something...? Is the some men who was become conspicuous with naughty speech in a foreign country ? Yes ,he is !
EPP - Why am I seeing this CRAP?!!!???!!!?
Dzisiejsi entuzjaści i działacze walki o Wolność i Demokrację, wczoraj jeszcze stosowali metody, których nie powstydziliby się najgorsi stalinowscy oprawcy. Wszechobecne za rządów Platformy podsłuchy i monitorowanie obywateli to zabawy przedszkolaków przy zorganizowanej przed ośmiu laty przez Grzegorza Schetynę „Akcji Widelec”. Aresztowano wówczas na podstawie wydumanych zarzutów 752 osoby, nad którymi znęcano się potem w kazamatach warszawskich komisariatów, by wymusić fałszywe zeznania. Dlaczego „Akcja Widelec”? Widelec był jedynym „niebezpiecznym” narzędziem znalezionym przy zatrzymanych (a mówimy o niemal tysiącu osób!). Prawdopodobnie pochodził zresztą z pikniku, który wcześniej odbywał się na miejscu zatrzymania. Nawet „Gazeta Wyborcza” nazwała akcję „monstrualnym bezsensem”. Oczywiście nie od razu – osiem lat temu pisała o sukcesie warszawskiej policji w „pacyfikowaniu kiboli”. Podała także – po prostu i po chamsku zmyśloną – informację o „maczugach, tasakach i łańcuchach”. Zatrzymani byli kibicami Legii Warszawa udającymi się na mecz derbowy z Polonią. Wcześniej przemaszerowali dużą grupą przez pół miasta, zachowując się na tyle spokojnie, że policja ani razu nie wzywała do rozejścia się (świadczy to też o tym, że nie uznano go za nielegalne zgromadzenie!). Dopiero pod stadionem kibice zostali otoczeni i aresztowani.
Weber túl értèkeli Önmagát. Mèg Kohl -tól öökölték azt a tudományt, hogy a renittenskedőket belől, közelükben kell tartani, mert úgy jobban kezelhetôk. Weber Úr! Hallott már olyan szemèlyiségtorzulásról, amikor az egyèn egy virtuális valóságban êl. Meg van győződve, hogy csak neki van igaza. Ezèrt vàlik egyeduralkodóvá.Mindenkinêl mindent jobban tud. Kevés szakemberi gárdára van szüksége. Annak kell történie, amit és ahogy Ő akar. Nincs empatiás érzés.Csak kedvtelésből is szenvedtet.Nàla nincs nagyobb , pláne nem a világhírű CEU. Nem érez együtt ,a kivont források miatt ,èvi 80 ezer halott hozzátartozójàval. Nem èrdekli , hogy szenvednek a kivàndorlók és rokonaik, csak küldjèk haza a pènzt nőjjön a GDP Nem zavarja , hogy lebutítja az országot minden szinten , 90 ezerrel kevesebben tanulnak a felsőaktatásban. Kiűzte a 16 èven felüliek 10 ezreit az oktatásból. Hogy nem helyes? Mondjàk! Orbán fülei süketek az emberi , a humánus szóra. Weber Úr nem sorolom. Nèzze meg szemëlyesen , mit vàllalt. Kígyó a keblên..
O cloaca de mafioti sant cei din PPE,cum naiba puteti sa sustineti asemenea specimene...bleahhhh😠😠😠
A Néppárt nem akarja a Fideszt kizárni, ugyanazt teszi, mint a Fidesz itthon: szavazatgyűjtés!!!

Asta e al lui Merkel ... Nu prea sunt multumit. Trebuia sa se faca o schimbare in politica UE !
Congratulations to Manfred Weber!
Sa dea Dumnezeu ca PPE-ul sa nu mai aibe majoritate. Niciodată nu ati ascultat vocea majoritatii romanilor. De fapt suntem dejectiile voastfe.
I never never understood why someone insisted on bringing a German word into the English language when there already is an English word for it? Maybe because it’s only relevant to elect a front runner in the German speaking countries 🤔🙄 #brusselsbubble
remélem megállítja Orbánt ha nem akkor számomra ő is hiteltelen.
Congratulations. And where is your red line?
Strong together whilst being seperate...
Today we elect our #Spitzenkandidat during day 2 of EPP Congress in Helsinki. Check out the great Messukeskus venue and see who is there ↘️📸
Vocês têm traído vossos povos. Não sei se será possível as vossas políticas trazerem saúde a uma EU que se tornou canserosa ao ir contra a defesa de seus povos. Sempre votei em vós... Agora não me representam! TRAIÇÃO aos povos EUROPEUS!

Finnen har dragit en nitlott.Tack.det värmer mitt hjärta.Det går inte att vara solidarisk med folk som vill ha mer och mer men jobba?,det vill de inte.Så var det med den liberalism som de vill tvinga le folket i EU.Vill inte FÖRSÖRJA en massa som bara förstör och kräver mer och mer utan att ge något i gengäld.

Second day of the EPP Congress! ️🔵Tune in! #Up2EU #EPPHelsinki
Is anyone in the EPP going to do something about its far right populist Orban? Or do they thing that shutting down universities for political reasons is ok? #IstandwithCEU
"Christian Democrats"? What happened to the separation of church and state? How is this inclusive for those Europeans practising other religions?
with Fidesz, you are no different than ENF
Weber, talk about Orban!!!
I keep waiting to hear about a red line, but this just sounds like red tape... Defending European institutions happens now, not 'looking forward. #IstandwithCEU , Drawing a line is #Up2EU
Do you also care about academic freedom in Hungary? It’s #Up2EU to help CEU stay in the country #IStandWithCEU
Where is your red line on #AcademicFreedom in #Hungary? Why are we listening to Orbán's demagoguery? Orbán takarodj!
Member states need strong, independent universities for that research and development you are hoping for #IstandwithCEU
If you criticise populists start with populists in your own party. How long will you tolerate Orban? Where is your red line? #Up2EU #istandwithCEU
How long will you tolerate nationalist populists amongst your ranks? Will you do anything about your friend Orban shutting down a university? #Up2EU #istandwithCEU
Start to fight nationalism in your circles first! #IstandwithCEU#whereisyourredline
We just heard about the threat of populists, now we are hearing from one... #IstandwithCEU #redline
Herr Weber good morning! no matter how comfortable your Helsinki four seasons hotel bed is I pray you toss and turn over your broken promises and neglected red lines. The people of Hungary and Europe are looking to you. #standwithceu #standwithacademicfreedom
Kurz is great he only should have stayed beside Orban!
Independent so no Soros influenced University!
EPP fail to live by its words and so called principles - only interested in becoming dominant force in Europe - euobserver.com/opinion/142070
Cosa ci stia a fare il sovranista Kurz in un consesso popolare non è dato sapere, l'ennesima pagliacciata, ma chi li vuole, chi li vota questi pagliacci!
All the bullies under one roof! So glad we are leaving 🇬🇧🏴
A lot of opposition in the comments but not a single solution.
why are kurz and orbán still part of the epp?
My red line has already been crossed, where is yours? #IstandwithCEU #whereisyourredline
Why is the EPP tolerating in its midst far right leaders like Orbán? Why do they let him violate EPP values and trample EU treaties? Where is your red line, Manfred Weber?
Boonce Roobo Your not paying attention to the speakers
For a #BetterEurope support to #ManfredWeber because we are #StrongerTogether #EPPCongress🇪🇺
Hopefull next EU president,Alexander Stubb best one for future......👉👉
