“But,” notes De Croo, “regardless of who has won now, we as Europeans need to do our homework better. We need to make sure that we are much more a factor in geopolitics and that we do not always stick with the US. ”
“Europe is the world’s largest trading bloc, the largest investor against global warming and in development cooperation. But we don’t represent much geopolitics. ”
So De Croo wants Europe to make a significant contribution in this area. “And if we can form a tandem with the US, we can achieve a lot in the world. That is of course much easier with a partner who shares the same ideas as us. “
