The return to innovation, an
ambitious climate policy and the strengthening of defense
capacity against possible aggression: the integration of these
three major policies represent the challenge facing Europe
today. This was supported by the former Polish Prime Minister,
Mateusz Morawiecki, during the debate on the topic of "The
Economic New Deal in Europe", at the 33rd Economic Forum in
Karpacz (Poland).
According to Morawiecki, we are faced with growing tensions
on the international scene and an attempt to restructure supply
chains, with the aim of Europe becoming independent, abandoning
the current central role of China. "Poland - he explained -
could be a beneficiary of this process, assuming the
consolidation of Western countries and, more generally, of the
free world".
For the former prime minister, the increase in defense
spending would allow Europe to defend itself from possible
Russian aggression: to do so it would require the allocation of
at least 3% of GDP by NATO countries, in order to "be in able,
in 5-10 years, to defend ourselves without the United States".
