We started the week at the Munich Security Conference, with 3 takeaways: Our unity is our strength, the security of Ukraine is the security of Europe, and each of us must play our part in upgrading and stepping up Europe’s security and defence capabilities.
This was the key message at the EU Finance Ministers meeting, where the president of the European Investment Bank Group Nadia Calviño also presented the Investment Report, confirming market integration, simplification and investment as the three key drivers for Europe’s competitiveness.
With Commission Vice President Virkkunen, we agreed to boost investments in digital infrastructure. President Calviño also met Vice Presidents Fitto and Mînzatu, to enhance Europe’s cohesion policy and social infrastructure. And with Commissioner Zaharieva, we discussed the synergies of different instruments to support European innovators.
In Greece and in Spain we presented our 2024 results. We also announced new financing for green and digital projects.
