Europe needs to be tougher in defending its economic interests. But economic security must not come at the cost of economic isolation.
My latest piece for @Rapporteur on making EU trade policy work for businesses and people.
#EUTrade #EconomicSecurity @EESC_REX #TradeCommittee
Europe must defend its interests without retreating into isolation. How can it balance economic security, openness and rules-based trade?

🗯️ For entrepreneurs the cumulative burden of EU & national rules is a daily reality, taking time away from running & growing their businesses. Success will be measured by whether businesses experience less burden when operating in the Single Market.

🗯️ The “Think Small First” principle too often remains a principle rather than regulatory discipline.
EU policymakers should consider the smallest business from the beginning.
We need clearer & predictable rules.

📍 Two years after the #DraghiReport, EU companies are still waiting for tangible improvements on the ground.
Today we took stock with representatives from @Wolt, BarricadiX, @LithuaniaInEU & @EU_Growth
The message was clear: Europe must move faster.

🗯️ In Europe there is a deeper issue we do not address enough: how we deal w/ failure. If we are serious about the 🇪🇺 innovation capacity, we need to create the right environment because innovation means taking risks.

Increased #competition, tariffs, supply chain disruptions: the 🇪🇺 cannot afford inaction. We need:
✅ Progress on #trade agreements
✅ #Diversification
✅ Competitive #industrial base
✅ EU unity
Excellent debate on #trade today w/ @Trade_EU, @BusinessEurope & @Eurochambres 🎯
Uncertainty is the new #tariff. For businesses, unpredictable trade policy can be as damaging as tariffs themselves.

What happens when uncertainty becomes the new tariff in EU-US economic relations ❓For 🇪🇺 companies this is a reality. The remedy is urgent: #Europe must speak with one voice

Provisional application of #Mercosur agreement is decisiveness that Europe needs to show. Fewer tariffs, access to a huge consumer market, and new chances to grow, invest and create jobs. Openness and partnership are good for business and for Europe.
⚠️Sending the #Mercosur for judicial review stalls a deal that is vital for Europe. By doing so, @Europarl_EN has failed to seize a crucial moment to show our trading partners that the EU is a reliable, predictable, and consistent actor on global stage. politico.eu/article/eu-merco…

Tämä on surkea uutinen. Nyt jos koskaan EU tarvitsisi uusia kauppakumppaneita maailmalla eikä kauppapoliittisia omia maaleja. Tämä uhkaa lykätä vuosilla Mercosur-sopimusta ja vaikeuttaa yritysten kasvua. #yrittäjät #mercosur yle.fi/a/74-20205666
Thank you @BrusselsTimes for spotlighting this crucial topic 🙏 — Europe’s #startups & #scaleups!
We can’t afford to lose innovative companies, jobs & ideas to other continents. It’s time to ensure that they have real opportunities to grow here in Europe! 💡🇪🇺

🇪🇺 start-ups are world class but too many move abroad in search of funding, talent or easier #markets. How can they escape the "Valley of Death"❓

🇪🇺 start-ups are hubs of #innovation but too often due to lack of #capital & overregulation many relocate or sell out to foreign competitors.
The 🇪🇺 must adopt a scaling-up mindset in all business-related policies 🎯

💭 To improve #youth prospects in the 🇪🇺 we need to promote #entrepreneurship as a valid & attractive path alongside salaried work. Young debate should be encouraged & supported to turn ideas into action 🎯
