The European Union is preparing for a constructive, but also rigid dialogue with the United States. Ursula von Der Lyen, the President of the European Commission, emphasized that the EU is set up to cooperate, but will defend its values and interests, especially in the case of unjust or arbitrary actions by US partners. She made this statement during a press conference in Brussels, where they discussed the strengthening of European defense.
An important issue at the EU leaders meeting was a transatlantic partnership, which is the basis for promoting peace and security. Von Der Liaien noted that the European Union recognizes potential challenges in relations with the United States and is ready to respond to any unfair action. She also stated an example of high duties introduced by the United States against Canada and Mexico, emphasizing that the EU would stand firm in its multilateral obligations.
The EU also emphasizes the importance of fulfilling internal tasks to ensure the competitiveness of the European economy, which will be guided in its development strategy.
