In the latest issue of Institut für Europäische Politik #BerlinPerspectives I argue that the "real European Defence Union" that Ursula von der Leyen promised needs more German drive and propose 3 steps to move this Union beyond the conceptual stage👉iep-berlin.de/site/assets/fi…

The creation of a European commissioner for defense is a timely & strategic move. It provides a focal point for aligning EU security initiatives with NATO's priorities & enhancing Europe's #defense industrial capacity, argues Nicole Koenig. Read more ⤵️ carnegieendowment.org/europe/strateg…

Steht uns die AI-pokalypse noch bevor? Zwar hat #KI-gestützte Desinformation das Superwahljahr 2024 vor weniger Herausforderungen gestellt als gedacht. Randolf Carr und ich sorgen uns dennoch vor drei Trends, die wir im Tagesspiegel Background Digitalisierung & KI analysieren 👇 background.tagesspiegel.de/digitalisierun…

Guten Morgen from Berlin, drama capital of Europe. Where do things stand this morning? I'm glad you ask. The coalition is kaputt. The chancellor has asked the president to dismiss Lindner as finance minister, who will do so this afternoon. The FDP has left the coalition.

EU defence industry problems: EU Member States are not procuring European defence products (<50%), too much fragmentation, not enough production capacity, lack of interoperability and need to meet NATO standards…⬇️ A thread 🧵1/8 andriuskubilius.lt/en/european-un…

Buen artículo de Adrián Romero RTVE sobre lo que está en juego en la #MSC2025 que está a punto de empezar. Fue un placer compartir algunas reflexiones, junto con Félix Arteaga Real Instituto Elcano ➡️rtve.es/n/16446058/

Fake news and totally disgraceful. @MSCheusgen was emotional because this was his last MSC as chairman and it was clearly difficult for him to say goodbye. The video is edited to make a false connection. Shame on the media company for spreading this!!
