Full house for an exchange on the urgent need to #DefendDemocracy in an era of sharp power.

Investing in democratic #resilience against hybrid warfare should be considered part of a country's 2% GDP #defence spending, if not deserve its own 2%.

This is your daily reminder that you have millions of friends and allies in the EU.

Also, for too long it has been too easy to scapegoat the EU. Anything good: "We did that; look at us!", anything bad "The EU is to blame."

We need to assume responsibility.

The EU is the sum of what the members put in, plus the added reach from cooperation; nothing more, nothing less. This allows US to solve more problems and get more done.
