Last week, I had the honour to hold the #EugenBöhmVonBawerkLecture of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. I argued that the narrative that Europe is in decline is misleading and that Europe should unlock the full potential of the Single Market by introducing a #28thRegime. 1/20

Europe is often portrayed as a continent in decline, squeezed between geopolitical rivals, held back by excessive regulation and struggling to keep pace with rapid technological change. In an op-ed in today's @FT, I explain why this narrative is misleading.

This is our flag. It stands for unity, freedom, peace, democracy, diversity, science, culture and rule of law. We can be even stronger if we foster integration, innovation and sovereignty. Let’s go, Europe!
