I had a great discussion with HRVP @kajakallas on Europe’s policy priorities. We discussed the uneven economic impacts of the conflict in the Middle East, how pivotal it is for the EU to deepen its single market and complete the energy union, and our ongoing support to Ukraine.

I had a stimulating exchange with economics correspondents in Brussels on the outlook for the euro area & how policies should respond to global economic headwinds. In a more uncertain world, Europe has to toughen up. Advancing the single market is key to productivity & growth.

Thank you, Greece, for becoming the newest partner of our capacity development work. As I told FM @Pierrakakis, Greece has come a long way: from a country needing support to now able to help others. It will contribute to SEETAC, strengthening economic institutions in SE Europe.

An inspiring visit to @imec_int in Leuven, where talent and innovation are shaping Europe’s future. From cutting-edge research to next-generation semiconductors, Europe has what it takes to lead. It must champion this ecosystem to drive growth, productivity, and competitiveness.

It was great to catch up with Prime Minister @Bart_DeWever in Brussels. We discussed Europe’s response to global shocks & Belgium’s welcome reforms. We are aligned on the urgency of completing the Single Market to strengthen growth in an increasingly uncertain global environment.

I had an excellent discussion in Brussels today on accelerating EU priorities with former PM @EnricoLetta and @ert_eu chair Jon Symonds. Europe has the talent, innovation, and resources to succeed—it must step up to deliver critical reforms with urgency and unity.
