As a liberal, I am convinced that we best safeguard Europe's interests in a safe, green, and strong EU.
We must strengthen defence cooperation in the EU
The U.S. election is approaching, and if Trump is elected, it’s uncertain how the U.S. will approach NATO. Therefore, it is crucial for the EU to build a stronger military infrastructure, allowing us to take more responsibility for our own security.
We must invest in the European youth
Young people are our future. Hence, we should actively engage young voices in the European debate, whether discussing mental health, climate action, security policy, or any other topic.
We must win the battle against climate change
We have only one planet, and we must take better care of it. Investing in renewable energy is essential to ensure sustainable transformation while avoiding funding Putin’s war machine through the purchase of Russian gas.
We must create growth and prosperity through trade
The internal market is a European success story, and we must ensure that goods and services can move freely across European borders rather than moving toward protectionism.
