I welcome last night’s political agreement on EDIRPA, the common procurement instrument for Europe’s Defence industry.
EDIRPA will give the defence industry greater predictability.
Help boost deliveries for Ukraine.
And bring us closer to a 🇪🇺 Defence Union.

Re Europe is the 1st major economy to set out an economic security strategy, with 3 strands.
1. Promote our competitiveness
2. Protect ourselves with targeted tools, initiatives to come by end of year
3. Partner, to strengthen trade and supply chains https://t.co/PwXKjFhwE5

EU-Mercosur is the largest, most ambitious trade agreement our regions have negotiated.
A combined market of 700 million consumers – the potential for economic progress is immense!
We need to get it done. I count on 🇦🇷 as current Mercosur chair. https://n.respublicae.eu/i/broadcasts/1mnxeRlMjbWKX

The agreement we just signed on Critical Raw Materials is great news.
It promotes sustainable mining and aims to make the Argentinian raw materials industry thrive, along the whole value chain.
That means new jobs, local jobs and so many opportunities for Argentinians.

I discussed the future of 🇪🇺🇦🇷 relations with President @alferdez.
Our partnership is thriving.
The EU is the biggest investor in Argentina, and we can do so much more.
By concluding EU-MERCOSUR fast.
And preparing a solid pipeline of projects under #GlobalGateway.
