Former European Central Bank Chief Mario Draghi is urging the EU to develop a new industrial strategy to counter the rapid advancements being made by the United States and China. In a recent video titled “How the EU risks falling further behind the US and China,” DW News explores the growing concern over Europe’s lagging competitiveness in the global market.
Draghi highlights the need for the EU to modernize its industrial policy in order to keep pace with the technological innovations and economic growth seen in the US and China. He warns that without a strategic plan in place, Europe risks losing its footing in key industries such as artificial intelligence, digitalization, and green technologies.
The video delves into the challenges faced by the EU in terms of regulatory barriers, lack of investment, and limited cooperation among member states. It emphasizes the importance of fostering a more cohesive and unified approach to industrial development in order to remain competitive on the world stage.
As political leaders and policymakers grapple with these pressing issues, Draghi’s call to action serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need for the EU to step up its game in order to avoid falling further behind its global counterparts. The video serves as a wake-up call for Europe to prioritize innovation, investment, and collaboration in order to secure its future in the increasingly competitive global economy.

EU == NEW URSSS
😒
EU NEEDS FREEDOM NOT 5 YEARS PROGRAMS!
EU could rule the World but the System is not efective. We need a Federal Europe to act as a United Superstate and implement Reforms as fast as posible.
Acute subservience to america's interests at the cost of europeans interests is clearly ruining europe.
Do I have to say that? 😂😂😂
EU is a joke… forget about industry
Germany has no choice but to fall behind after getting their Russian gas pipeline torpedoed by the US. 😂
Poland is extremely pleased with this.
Life isn’t a competition. Europe doesn’t need to mimic America. The relentless pursuit of growth damages people’s lives. Let the US or China chase that illusion of success—it’s a race that’s harmful and not worth joining
They wasted a decade to find out the system is not functioning. They will spend another decade to decide how to act… meanwhile before implementing simplified decision making, the EU will give new memberships, which will cause more mess. Well done EU, for destroying itself 😕
How ? Stop being a vassal to the US and start looking out for own interests will be a good start.
All we need stop buy china car
The problem is politicians who can't keep their fingers from interfering in business. it is just to complicated in the EU
these leader doesn't even know or understand what they are saying
Innovation, automation, and productivity. That’s it. You can’t continue to favor old companies or ways of working.
EU failed because of leadership, corruption and the fact that EU it’s not a fair Union among its members. China and USA it’s more attractive for us the young Europeans. Yes we study here but we have more opportunities elsewhere.
Putin is above it all with his offer to resupply Germany with gas and oil. Germany should get down on its knees together with the rest of Europe, profoundly grovel and apologize, and ask for re-admission to trade with Russia, its neighbor. This is the way to a healthy treaty. Russia is not about to start anything other than what the US cooks up to that effect. Germany, be smart, leave NATO, and the US, aside. Go for it! Are the Germans now up to it or too screwed to do any thinking for themselves? Europe should love Putin and exchange with Russia on every level. The post WWII benefactor across the ocean has long since turned into a violent and lying menace.
Get the Wokeness and Left wing leaders out
Competitive in what? The EU can only achieve competitiveness through high quality labor because of the lack of natural resources in each of the individual nations. Fund the schools and we will stay competitive, it's very easy. Teach about money and economics, acknowledge the EU economical shortcomings and this problem will solve itself with no tension.
EU have been hijacked by the Anglo countries.
Bla,bal,bla….. and nothing
"high quality of life" for Europeans means either no or very less work and lavish social benefits…. The problem is that with all these wishes they also want immigrants out!😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Hmm government "reports" it needs more power to help but that's the opposite of what really needs to happen like less tax and regulations.
Just stop being woke and problem solved.
The EU will fall further behind and eventually die out because of its huge division, huge inequalities, and lack of political will.
All western countries need to tariff all Chinese imports at a high rate. China is the largest polluter and supports dictatorships like Russia and NK. As long as they cheat on carbon and build things with slave labor, they will continue to gain advantage.
Does it surprise anyone that EU can not keep up with the US. Completely different systems and mindsets, Americans live to work and Europeans work to live. Average weekly working hours in Germany are less than 30hrs, how is that supposed to be competitive?
