Building a Green, Fair and Resilient Solar PV Supply Chain

However, challenges arise from disruptions in gas trade due to geopolitical conflicts, leading to increased CO2-intensive fuels. The push for renewable energy, as seen in the EU Green Deal, is hindered by divergent member state strategies, infrastructure limitations, and economic bottlenecks. China's renewable energy sector dominance poses a unique challenge, emphasizing the need for re-globalizing supply chains to mitigate risks and ensure stable collaborations for a sustainable energy transition.

Europeans would like to see values-based foreign policy and ditch veto
A recent survey reveals that Europeans desire an EU foreign policy rooted in values, with a focus on security, human rights, and freedom. The poll, conducted across ten member states and commissioned by the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom, highlights a growing sentiment that the EU Council's veto system obstructs a more unified foreign policy. As Europe assumes a greater international role, citizens are increasingly engaged and concerned about the EU's stance on global issues. The findings also suggest a nascent European identity, signaling a potential shift towards a collective European political sphere.
