Orbán blockiert Hilfe für die Ukraine 🇺🇦, schützt Wladimir Putin vor Sanktionen und bremst europäische Zusammenarbeit 🇪🇺 – während er in Ungarn die Demokratie abbaut. ❌

🗳️ Am 12. April habt ihr die Chance, Viktor Orbán abzuwählen.

Deine Stimme zählt. Nutze sie. ✊🇪🇺

Russlands Angriffskrieg hat zehntausende Menschenleben gekostet und Millionen zur Flucht gezwungen. 🇺🇦

Für Volt ist klar: Die Zukunft liegt in der EU. Auf dem Weg dorthin müssen wir die Ukraine militärisch unterstützen – und Reformen bei Antikorruption und Menschenrechten weiter voranbringen. 🇪🇺

Volt sagt JA zu #Mercosur.
Die neue Weltordnung verlangt Partnerschaften – nicht Abschottung.

Geopolitische Spannungen zeigen: #Europa muss #Handel diversifizieren, um Abhängigkeiten von autoritären Regimen zu reduzieren. Mercosur stärkt Europas strategische Autonomie.

Greenland is not for sale, nor is it some empty space on a map up for grabs. 🇬🇱

Its future belongs to Greenlanders, and Europe must stand by them. 🇪🇺

Join Volt and help us build a federal Europe that stands for safety and peace on our continent 💜👉https://volt.team/simple-join/en
A political infographic from Volt asking, "Do Greenlanders support becoming part of the USA?" It features two semi-circle charts: The first chart shows that 85% oppose joining the USA, while 6% support it (Source: Verian, 2025). The second chart emphasizes Volt's position on "Who should decide the future of Greenland," showing 100% Greenlanders and 0% Donald Trump. A political infographic from Volt asking, "Do Greenlanders support rejoining the EU through a referendum?" It features two semi-circle charts: The first chart shows 60% support for rejoining the EU and 40% opposition (Source: Nasiffik, 2024). The second chart reiterates Volt's stance that the decision-making power belongs 100% to Greenlanders and 0% to EU leaders. A purple graphic with bold white text that reads: "THE FUTURE OF GREENLAND BELONGS TO GREENLANDERS!". Below the main heading, it states, "The EU must defend Greenland, whether it is part of our union or not". The bottom features a call to action: "Let’s build a federal Europe together. Join Volt," followed by the Volt logo.

At Volt, we demand freedom without borders.
#freedomwithoutborders
A dramatic, low-angle photograph featuring a police officer standing next to a striped red-and-white roadside barrier cone with a flashing yellow light. The scene is at a border crossing with a police vehicle visible in the background. A large yellow banner at the bottom reads: "WITH ITS TWO YEARS OF BORDER CHECKS, GERMANY IS SUFFOCATING OUR DREAM OF A FREE EUROPE." A political campaign graphic featuring the flags of Switzerland, Poland, Czechia, and Austria at the top. The bold text states: "The Schengen Agreement permits internal border checks for no more than two years. Yet today, Germany's controls with Switzerland, Poland, and Czechia have been in place for at least that long — and those along the Austrian border have now lasted a decade. Germany is, therefore, in breach of European law, eroding the spirit of Schengen and rekindling old divisions across Europe." An image showing a blue hot air balloon decorated with the circle of yellow stars from the European Union flag, ascending against a purple and light blue sky. A prominent green text box at the bottom provides a call to action: "AT VOLT, WE'RE CALLING FOR OUR FREEDOM TO BE RESTORED. IT'S TIME TO REOPEN ALL BORDERS AND BRING BACK FREE MOVEMENT FOR TRAVEL, TRADE, AND SERVICES."

35 years ago, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law. Today, its legacy is being dismantled by Trump. Volt pushes Europe to act. Read our full article: volteuropa.org/news/35-year...
A man with a physical disability, identified as Serge Kovaleski, a New York Times reporter, stands to the left. To the right, Donald Trump is shown in mid-speech, with his mouth open and his arms gesturing. The background shows a crowd of people and the U.S. Capitol building. The text overlay reads, "2015: Trump mocked a reporter with a disability. 2025: Trump is attacking disability rights. 35 years after the American with Disabilities Act (ADA), the fight isn't over. What should Europe do?" A cropped photo of Donald Trump speaking, with his mouth open and a frustrated expression. The text overlay states, "The U.S. once led on disability rights with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Now, the Trump Administration is: Withdrawing ADA guidance for businesses. Terminating Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) programmes that protect disabled workers. Rolling back accessibility requirements under the Rehabilitation Act. Eliminating sign language interpreters at White House briefings. With the U.S. deliberately failing to protect disability rights, Europe must defend and advance them." A crowd of people in wheelchairs and using mobility aids are shown marching in the streets. A large banner held above them reads, "INJUSTICE ANYWHERE IS A THREAT TO JUSTICE EVERYWHERE. Martin Luther King Jr." The caption at the bottom says, "Disability Independence March in Manhattan, July 1993." The text overlay at the top reads, "Europe must set the new standard for disability rights. Read our full article." A list of three points with green headings on a purple background. The text says, "Disability rights are civil rights. Volt wants to make sure they are a lived reality: 1. Legal power: Make the UN CRPD binding across the EU. Ensure all Member States ratify its Optional Protocol. 2. Independent living: Invest in personal assistance and supported decision-making. End reliance on institutional care. 3. Full participation: Guarantee equal access to education, work, transport and politics. Involve disabled people in all policy decisions."

A purple background displays the large number "77%" in a bold, yellow font. Below this, the text "OF EUROPEANS SUPPORT A" is followed by the word "COMMON" in a large, yellow, and bold font, which is also underlined with a yellow line. The text continues, "DEFENCE AND SECURITY POLICY AMONG EU MEMBERS." Below this, the text "And so does Volt!" is underlined. At the bottom left, the source is listed as "Eurobarometer 2024." An individual with brown hair, wearing a suit and patterned tie, stands at a podium and speaks. The person is in front of a backdrop with a flag that is dark blue and features a circle of yellow stars. Below the image, there is a quote attributed to Volt MEP Reinier Van Lanschot. The quote reads, “Spending more money will not protect us. It’s about how we spend it. We need a European supreme allied commander, a European intelligence service, and a European nuclear deterrent. Putin will only attack us if we are weak. A European army makes us strong.” A purple background contains text that reads, "ARE YOU PART OF THE 77% WHO WANT A SAFE, PEACEFUL EUROPE?" Below this, the text continues, "Then join Volt's Defence and Security Community." The words "Defence and Security Community" are underlined with a bright yellow line. Below this, there are four yellow arrows pointing to the right, each next to a role title: "Co-Chair (f/d)," "Community Building Co-Lead (f/d)," "Topic Moderator," and "Relationship Manager – Advising Elected Officials." A mobile phone screen is depicted against a purple background. The screen displays a webpage with the Volt logo and navigation icons at the top. The title, in a blue-highlighted box, reads "DefCom (Defence and Security Community) vacancies." The text below describes the team dynamics: "The DefCom organizational team operates with a clear, shared structure that enables collaboration, ownership, and focus. This entire structure is designed to ensure that each volunteer can contribute in a manageable way. Together as a community..." A large, yellow button with a chain link icon is located at the bottom of the phone screen and reads, "See link to join."
