In February, industrialists gathered in Antwerp, the Netherlands, to present a ten-point plan for a so-called ‘Industrial Deal’, which should complement the Green Deal and strengthen the competitiveness of European industry.

Doubling down on enlargement is in the EU’s own interest, as it is an investment in our security and stability.
