Facing multiple crises, the EU's leadership must implement cohesive strategies for trade, defense, and economic competitiveness, particularly with Donald Trump influencing U.S. policy.
Simone Tagliapietra pointed out that von der Leyen is once again starting her term with an exogenous shock, referring to Trump's return as a significant challenge for the EU.

Von der Leyen emphasized the necessity of investing in innovation and clean energy to reduce energy prices, diversifying raw material supplies, and easing regulatory pressures.
