Our digital rights in the EU are in danger! Instead of defending our democracy and privacy, Ursula von der Leyen weakens protection against tech giants and their AI. Let’s put pressure together: demand that she does not give in.

Countries confirmed so far for Trump's Peace Council, which is intended to create a new international order without nonsense such as international law: United Arab Emirates, Belarus, Morocco, Hungary, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Argentina, Kosovo, and Israel. Putin is apparently pressuring Trump, but that would be to keep him from wanting peace!

As always great to catch up with Christine Lagarde @ecb.europa.eu @president.ecb.europa.eu in Davos 🇨🇭 We exchanged on climate, competitiveness and the state of economic affairs.

This moment of global change is fraught with dangers. And Europe must be ready to change even faster. To become more independent. For its own future.

Big tech and antitrust, a key concern for a well functioning market, not only in Europe. “US regulator appeals Meta’s antitrust win” giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

Great speech. @mark-carney.bsky.social “Risk management comes at a price, but that cost of strategic autonomy can also be shared. Collective investments in resilience are cheaper than everyone building their own fortresses. Shared standards reduce fragmentations”. globalnews.ca/news/1162087...

A good exchange at #WEF26 with @arthurmensch.bsky.social CEO of Mistral AI, on Europe’s leadership in AI for education. As we prepare the 2030 Roadmap on digital education & skills, cooperation with EU AI frontrunners is essential.

Had the pleasure to meet Karin Rådström, CEO of Daimler Truck, at #WEF26. The automotive industry is at the core of Europe’s workforce and an important source of quality jobs. We discussed its competitiveness, support to transition and investment in reskilling and upskilling #unionofskills.

At #WEF26 I met Denis Machuel and Bettina Schaller (Adecco Group) to exchange views on how we can boost cooperation on Europe’s jobs & skills. I count on Adecco’s expertise for the #UnionOfSkills & Quality Jobs Roadmap.

Powerful speech by @ec.europa.eu President Ursula von der Leyen today in #Davos: “We have done more on defence in the last year than in decades before.” 1/4 ⬇️

Departing for #WEF26. The World Economic Forum is a key platform for dialogue to avoid increasing fragmentation. For 55 years, #Davos has helped shape the future through conversation. I’ll join discussions on Europe’s new geopolitical approach, focusing on the economy, investment, and Ukraine.

Iranian women and men are fighting for a future of their own choosing. For freedom, dignity, and a better life. The Iranian authorities’ brutal repression is unacceptable. The EU already has sweeping sanctions on Iran in place. We are working on new sanctions in response.

Europe stands in full solidarity with the brave women and men of Iran who are risking their lives to demand freedom for themselves and future generations.

The new framework will: ➡️Strengthen EU cyber-resilience; ➡️Protect critical and vulnerable systems; ➡️Align EU action with evolving threats; ➡️Build faster and more coordinated protection across Europe. (2/2) All you need about it is here 👇 ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

When cyberattacks hit hospitals, transport or energy systems, everyday life can stop in seconds. With today’s proposal for a Cybersecurity Act, the Commission is reinforcing Europe’s defenses where it matters most: protecting the infrastructure we rely on every day. (1/2)

Always listening. This time in Strasbourg @la-fnsea.bsky.social @JeunesAgri @copa-cogeca.bsky.social
