Europe needs its own industrial strategy to face up to aggressive support from the US, EU leaders are set to be told on Thursday (18 April) in a report by former Italian premier Enrico Letta, a recent draft of which was seen by Euronews.<\/p>\n<p>EU countries could be forced to contribute to fund pan-European initiatives as the bloc faces up to sluggish growth, in a move that may provoke fears of a global subsidy war. \u201cThe EU must step up its efforts to develop a competitive industrial strategy capable of counteracting instruments recently adopted by other global powers, such as the US Inflation Reduction Act,\u201d said a draft introduction to the report by Letta, with many European companies tempted by Washington\u2019s green subsidies.<\/p>\n<p>After years in which the EU\u2019s competition rules were weakened to respond to the pandemic, the bloc needs to get tougher, Letta said, with stronger national enforcement coupled with a \u201cstate aid contribution mechanism\u201d requiring EU members to finance \u201cpan-European initiatives and investments\u201d. Letta also calls to unify markets such as finance, energy and telecoms that have until now been considered too sensitive to be governed from Brussels, alongside extra transport funding.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe coming years must prioritise the planning, funding, and implementation of a major plan to connect the European capitals with high-speed rail,\u201d he said, after visits to 65 European cities left him fuming at the lack of green travel options. The report also proposes a &#8220;European Code of Business Law&#8221;, offering an extra option alongside 27 national legal regimes for companies seeking to operate across the bloc. Letta is due to present his findings at a meeting of national leaders in Brussels, whose chair, Charles Michel, seems likely to be receptive.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Single Market has been neglected for the past four years,\u201d Michel told reporters last week, casting economic regulation as the source of Europe\u2019s \u201cprosperity, power and autonomy\u201d. That might be taken as criticism of his rival Ursula von der Leyen, who took office as European Commission President in late 2019, though some will be quick to point out that many proposed reforms to taxation and capital markets have been blocked by EU national ministers.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/my-europe\/2024\/04\/15\/exclusive-european-industrial-strategy-needed-to-compete-with-us-letta-to-tell-leaders\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/eu-policy-exclusive-european-industrial-strategy-needed-to-compete-with-us-letta-to-tell-leaders\/\">EU Policy.
