The Draghi report must become the European Union’s agenda

9th September 2024 – Sandro Gozi today expressed his full support for the report on European competitiveness presented by Mario Draghi, former Italian Prime Minister and ex-President of the ECB.

‘Mario Draghi’s report offers an ambitious and far-sighted vision for relaunching the European Union. It is essential that the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, incorporates this strategy into her programme for the next five years’, said Sandro Gozi.

The report proposes key reforms, including strengthening the effectiveness and legitimacy of the European institutions, increasing investment in the face of the global economic challenges posed by the United States and China, and creating a genuine European defence.

‘The time has come to show courage and determination to transform the European Union into a truly sovereign, democratic and competitive power’, concluded Sandro Gozi.
