Today in Washington D.C., I spoke at @AEI on why we need EU & U.S. leadership more than ever.

Authoritarian regimes/non-market actors continue to undermine global economy & security.

In such a world, 🇪🇺 & 🇺🇸should move closer - not further apart - wherever possible.

RT @CNBCJou: On China our relationship is more nuanced. We see China as a "cooperation partner" in some areas [ ..] but in others as an "economic competitor" . The quality of EU's relations with China will depend on China's position concerning Russia's aggression in Ukraine
