NEW POLICY BRIEF⚡️on the potential for Norway's contribution to 🇪🇺European #GreenTransition and green #StrategicAutonomy beyond fossil fuel exports. We know sanctions on Russian oil & gas due to war in 🇺🇦 have made Norway EU's primary supplier, but what are the implications? 🧵1/

#Europe 's thousands of years of history means we're prepared to act in our own interest.

Before simply following other countries' foreign policy, let's consider if it aligns with Europe's interests. Where it doesn't, let's create a strategic alternative.

Today’s first session of the workshop in the EU’s #strategicautonomy has started ⁦Erasmus+⁩

Constructive meeting with European Commission Vice President Maroš Šefčovič🇪🇺 on the EU Energy Platform. The EU needs a strong domestic fertilizer industry for #foodsecurity & #strategicautonomy . EU cannot replace dependency on Russian gas with dependency on Russian fertilizers.

In a volatile geopolitical landscape, Africa's interests are safeguarded through a higher degree of strategic autonomy & policy space. It's not in Africa's interests to be forced to choose sides amongst the great powers.

Interestingly, there are no proponents of #Europe ‘s #StrategicAutonomy among speakers at GLOBSEC (at least at sessions I attended). On the contrary, #EU defence is told to only complement those of #NATO .

I am curious if Emmanuel Macron‘s chat tomorrow will change this mood

Honoured to receive Christian Danielsson’s message: the #EU green transition & #Competitivenessneed to be supported with a strong #bioeconomy 💪
That is what #CircularChoices is about: finding solutions for greater #Sustainabilityand #StrategicAutonomy

💊 At today's #EPSCO , a major focus is the EU's strategic autonomy in healthcare. Amidst global supply chain vulnerabilities, Estonia emphasizes the need for enhanced medicine supply security. Let's reduce dependency and strengthen Europe's self-reliance! #StrategicAutonomy

When it comes to #strategicautonomy , there is increasing support for the idea of being less dependent and having more influence on energy production capacity, defence and security, and economy and innovation.

@franceinfoplus La faute à l'Europe?

An honour to discuss with Nobel prize laureate Professor May-Britt Moser about #foresight & excellence in neurosciences as a pillar of Europe’s open #strategicautonomy . We need more & simpler support to Europe’s research institutions. Geopolitics is also keeping talents in Europe!

At #GLOBSEC23 fmr 🇺🇸 Defense Secretary Mark Esper, interviewed by BBC Kasia Madera, sets the tone: “I don’t believe in 🇪🇺 #strategicAutonomy . It undermines #NATO . That said, all Europeans should spend more on defense!” Couldn’t agree more!
