He emphasized the importance of new proposals to tackle foreign interference and manipulation, making it clear that these issues will be among his key priorities.
He stressed that European membership benefits should hinge on adherence to the European Charter of Human Rights, declaring, 'I will not hesitate to act when appropriate using the full toolbox of measures at my disposal.'
