French president tells fellow European leaders the bloc is falling behind the US and China because of over-regulation and under-investment
The EU “could die” unless it makes itself more competitive with the US and China, Emmanuel Macron has warned.
The French president said the bloc was over-regulating and under-investing at the Berlin Global Dialogue event.
Washington and Beijing both outstripped the EU in economic output and investment, he said, before calling on the bloc to complete its banking union package of financial rules.
Member states also needed to press for global trade rules to be kept fair, he added, according to Bloomberg.
EU could die because countries nominate far right anti EU presidents at a stagering rate
While our regulations and social security make us the most desirable immigration destination.
We should focus more on investing in technology, but that doesn’t mean that we need to deregulate to allow uber/amazon type of companies to grow here. They’re not a public benefit.
Exactly
Don’t worry, his current government is allied with the far right party right now. Just so they can beat the left coalition. It’s fine right ? Riiiiiiiiight ? /s
