The #SOTEU will reveal whether vdL understood the assignment.
1️⃣ Will she elevate climate policy to a pillar of Europe’s security and FP agenda?
2️⃣ Is the #EU willing to do what it takes to remain sovereign?
3️⃣ Will she shift from reactivity to coalition-building?🧵

Yes, resilience sounds boring. It doesn’t speak the language of war and control. It doesn’t offer instant victories. But it may be the only path that allows Europe to be a credible guardian of peace, stability, and cooperation in a multipolar world.

Snapshot of Germany by @lucasguttenberg. Let it sink in. Germany in paralysis in a moment when Europe would need Germany the most.
Replying to @lucasguttenberg
So we have two scenarios: Either the government continues but will not be able to agree on anything after the budget because it has run out of political fuel. Or snap elections and a new government in April/May. Either way, Germany likely not the best partner to rely on for now.

Nur so eine Beobachtung, weil man das wegen Russland/Ukraine, Nahost und ein bisschen Abstand vergisst: Zwischen der letzten Europawahl und dieser lag die größte Pandemie seit einem Jahrhundert - und es spielt quasi keine Rolle in den Analysen.

Die Gretchenfrage ist: Wie gestalten wir Industriepolitik so, dass sie den Binnenmarkt nicht untergräbt und allein den Starken (DE, FR, …) in die Hände spielt, sondern alle gewinnen? Dafür braucht es drei Dinge /2
