@wearedigitaldiplomacy: Canada and Europe are joining forces. But why? In her State of the European Union (SOTEU) address, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen pointed out: "In this new world, we must urgently reimagine our partnerships. And build global coalitions for our resilience and democracies. And here too only Europe – with its size and power – can take the lead." Without ever mentioning US President Donald Trump or the United States, von der Leyen said: "Europe and Canada believe in democracy. We believe that power does not belong to the strongest, the richest or the loudest – but to all of us. That democracies have the freedom to choose with whom to work. So, we are joining forces voluntarily." The Commission head, who invited Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to SOTEU in Strasbourg, France, yesterday, didn't give details about the possible partnership between the EU and Canada. But she highlighted in her speech: "This is a partnership not against anyone else, but for our common strength." She mentioned a few key strategic sectors, like economic security, manufacturing, tech, defence industrial bases, the Arctic, energy, critical minerals, batteries, AI, quantum, cyber, and economic security. Von der Leyen announced: "Dear Mark, I said we must urgently reimagine our partnerships. So, I would like to work with you on opening the door for Canada to be the first associate member of the EU. We share one ocean, one set of values, one way of seeing the world. And we will now build our shared future as well – thank you for being here." #diplomacy #digitaldiplomacy
