How comparable is the current situation with the 80s? How are defence investment strategies affected by the surge of far-right parties in member states? And how can the savings discussed in the Letta report be used for investments? Interesting questions for the panel during the Q&A. #PPD

@guntramwolff.bsky.social from @ulbruxelles.bsky.social points out how much of European defence equipment works with US software: "While on the one hand, we're increasing our capabilities, on the other hand we're also increasing our dependencies." #ResearchMeetsPolitics

Thomas Röwekamp, Member of the Bundestag, points out that we need a conversation in our society about the need for defence: "We not only have to decide the questions on the table, we actually have to debate them with the younger generation." #ResearchMeetsPolitics

"European defence and the defence of Europe are not the same thing", @sabine-thillaye.bsky.social, Member of the @assembleenationale.bsky.social, states while explaining how difficult it is to discuss EU defence with her constituency far from the French border. #ResearchMeetsPolitics #PPD

French Ambassador François Delattre opens the event with an overview of Franco-German and European projects and plans to support EU #defence: "I am convinced that Europe's innovation potential is huge, relying on a very dynamic defence innovation ecosystem." #ResearchMeetsPolitics #PPD

Europe is in danger. In an op-ed by Enrico Letta, Pascal Lamy and Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović, we call on Europe to complete the #SingleMarket by 2028 - not with slogans, but through concrete action in energy, telecoms, capital, knowledge, and defence. Read more 👉 www.politico.eu/article/euro...

Ich mache mal eine optimistische Rechnung nach den Debatten heute auf: volle Zustimmung für Haushalt, keine Abweichler bei denen, die tendenziell zur Regierung halten.

Mehrheit bei 289 Stimmen.

Ohne Horizons UND PS (zusammen 103 Stimmen), die heute beide sehr kritisch waren, keine Mehrheit.

Rede von Premier Lecornu vor der Nationalversammlung: drei große Schritte in Richtung Kompromiss.

Sein Vorschlag:
- Aussetzen der Rentenreform bis zur Präsidentschaftswahl 2027
- Außergewöhnlicher Beitrag der Wohlhabenden im Haushaltsjahr 2026
- Keine Nutzung des umstrittenen Artikels 49.3

This Thursday, the European Parliament’s @imco.europarl.europa.eu will vote on the ‘transparency of third-country lobbying’ directive. The directive is intended to counter foreign interference by introducing mandatory national transparency registers for third-country lobbying. 1/

Jetzt geht alles schnell für die Regierung Lecornu II: Antrittsrede im Parlament heute 15 Uhr, gleichzeitig Einreichen des Haushalts.

Die Linien sind verhärtet: die PS will das Aussetzen der Rentenreform als Voraussetzung zur Tolerierung.
Die LR-Spitze ist strikt dagegen, deren Abgeordnete weniger.

Wie halten es die bisherigen Regierungsparteien mit der neuen Regierung, die gestern Abend ernannt wurde?

In normalen Zeiten ein einfacher Sachverhalt: wer in der Regierung ist, unterstützt sie. Normal und einfach ist in diesen Wochen jedoch nichts.

"Die Migrationspanik befördert die autoritäre Wende, die wir überall in der westlichen Welt beobachten können. Auch deshalb ist es so wichtig, aus diesem Denkmuster auszubrechen."

🚦 Europe is in danger. Geopolitics, disinformation and democratic fatigue threaten its foundations.

⚡This is no time for small steps, only bold strides.

🇪🇺 A new pan-European initiative is coming to invent, impact and engage.

🚀 Stay tuned.

Ein Novum in einer Woche, die an Premieren nicht arm war: Premier Lecornu wird nach seinem Rücktritt wieder zum Premier ernannt.

Eine wirklich seltsame Entscheidung. Es ist schwer zu sehen, warum er bessere Chancen als vor einer Woche haben sollte.

Kurze Erklärung 🧵

Today, the EU’s Regulation on the Transparency and Targeting of Political Advertising enters into force. From now on, political ads – notably both online and offline – will have to carry a transparency label with key information about why people are seeing the ad, who paid for it and how much. 1/

Bingo! The coalition just agreed to roll out a new EV support scheme for low- and middle-income households.

The fiscal envelope isn’t huge - but it’s something to work with.

Now the focus has to be on getting the design right and coordinating as closely as possible with EU partners.

This is the way. The German car industry’s problem isn’t 2035 - it’s the demand crash happening right now.

And while we can’t stop U.S. tariffs or Chinese subsidies, we certainly can ramp up demand at home.

German auto summit tomorrow.

The sole focus on the EU combustion engine phase-out, which is 10 years away, is baffling because German cars have a demand problem today

Berlin worries a new EV subsidy scheme would be fiscally too expensive.

But demand-side support is a fiscal no-brainer here.
