Rome, May 18 (LaPresse) – “President Trump’s rise to power has simultaneously reshuffled the deck in three key areas: economic, political, and military. These are three major areas of international cooperation in the context of globalization developed over recent decades. More than a threat, it is an opportunity: Europe is more necessary than ever. Its leaders must accelerate the process of consolidating the European Union — and turn it into reality,” said ECB Governor Christine Lagarde in an interview with La Tribune Dimanche.
“Today we see that energy, military, and financial dependence is being called into question, which justifies cooperation. These are common goods. They require coordinated action on a European scale. None of the eurozone countries could face these challenges alone.”
