EU fines? Just business as usual for Google. At the Strasbourg Plenary yesterday I addressed that:

👉 We need proper digital taxation for third country companies. The EU’s market must be harmonised and we have to put our own companies first when choosing critical technologies.
EU:n perussopimus on avattava, jotta EU:n rahaa voidaan käyttää merkittävästi enemmän puolustukseen.

👉 EU:n on lisättävä määräenemmistöpäätöksiä, kansallistettava maataloustuet ja laitettava merkittävä osuus budjetista kokonaisturvallisuuteen ja puolustukseen.

This week, I had the pleasure to be a guest at the AI Experience Podcast’s episode on the EU and AI leadership.

👉To achieve AI leadership in the EU, we have to deregulate, put a price on our data and create a more innovation-friendly market for European tech.

Today in the ITRE committee, we voted to end the purchase of Russian gas. I voted in favor – and the decision passed.

👉 EU countries should have acted years ago to clean up their energy systems.
👉 The EU must commit to phasing out all Russian energy.
👉 It’s time to stop funding Putin’s war.
This afternoon, I gave the opening remarks at Aula Europe and Pure Storage’s event, which focused on the EU’s digital sovereignty, AI leadership and data centers.

☝️ We must invest in data, increase venture funding and deregulate to make digital sovereignty and AI leadership a reality in Europe.

Tämän @aurasalla.bsky.social podin kuuntelu on asia, jonka teen joka tiistai ekana himaan päästyä.
Tällä kertaa asiaa mm. lempiaiheestani, eli suorista yritystuista, sosiaalirahastoista, maatalouden tukemisesta ja puolustuksesta.

Miksi EU-rahat menee maatalouteen eikä puolustukseen?

I had the pleasure to speak at the AECA’s roundtable discussion today, focused on simplification and investment policy.

📌 The EU must leverage its ability to create a well-functioning single market and a capital markets union.
📌 Competitiveness is an essential part of the EU’s security.
Today, I co-hosted the event Balancing Safety and Security: The EU’s Role in Protecting Encryption. In the event my main message was:

👉 Withdraw the CSAM proposal — it threatens cybersecurity, encryption and citizens’ privacy. We can protect children online without breaking message security.
Note: there's a war in Europe and the most important thing for MEPs is that you can't call soy sausages as sausages and the Commission saves the EU's AI market by offering digital applications to farmers. 🫣 #eu
Sanon vain: Euroopassa on sota ja mepeille tärkeintä on, että soijanakkeja ei voi kutsua nakeiksi ja komissio pelastaa EU:n tekoälymarkkinan tarjoamalla maanviljelijöille digiaplikaatioita. 🫩 #eu
This afternoon, I spoke at Bellona Europa’s Climate Action Conference on the EU’s Clean Industrial Deal and climate goals.

☝️ Decarbonisation powers Europe’s security and competitiveness, not just climate goals.
👉 Clean energy offers economic opportunities. Let’s build our market to answer them.
This morning I participated in the event From Local to Global: How EU Tech Supports SME Growth and Europe’s Competitive Future, organized by Booking.com.

📌 The GDPR needs to be reviewed.
📌 The InvestEU program is a great example of supporting SMEs to grow.
📌 We must put a price on our data.
I took part in a panel at The 4th Annual European Tech for Climate Action Conference today. I highlighted that:

👉 The EU must end the purchase of Russian fossil fuels.
👉 Clean energy is a key to the EU’s competitiveness and security.
👉 Europe’s public procurement should favor European companies.
Tutkajärjestelmämme havaitsevat hävittäjiä ja ohjuksia satojen kilometrien päähän, mutta matalalla lentävät droonit jäävät katveeseen. #Ukraina kipuilee Venäjän alati kehittyvän sotateknologian kanssa. Kumpi on voitolla hybridisodassa itä vai länsi? #turpo #podcast 🎧

Huomenta Suomessa puhumassa drooneista ja Euroopan kyvystä torjua niitä. Tarvitsemme kattavan järjestelmän, joka havaitsee, tunnistaa ja eliminoi droonit yli rajojen. EU-rahan suhteen, nyt on pohjoisen vuoro: meppinä ajan EU-rahoitusta koko unionin itärajan puolustukseen. Suomi on erityisasemassa. 🇪🇺
Today I participated as a panelist to Forum Europe’s Cybersecurity Conference.
❗️The EU has to create its market suitable for European technology companies that serve as alternatives to companies from the US and China. This lies at the heart of the EU’s comprehensive security and competitiveness.
Järjestin Energia- ja ilmastoverkostolle tänään keskustelutilaisuuden.

📌 Vahva EU:n 2040-ilmastotavoite on Euroopan kilpailukyvyn moottori.
📌 Ilmastopolitiikka on väline eurooppalaisen teollisuuden uudistamiseen.
📌 Poliitikkojen tulee osoittaa, että EU pystyy tarjoamaan kestäviä ilmastoratkaisuja.

After tough trilogue negotiations #InvestEU deal is real.

€2,9 billion additional guarantees will unlock up to €60 billion in private investments across Europe.

Less red tape, more investment, and more guidance and support for companies to access loan guarantees.

In the ITRE Committee meeting today I raised two key points:
👉 We can no longer give away our data for free to competitor companies in the US and China.
👉 The EU needs to answer how quickly we can bring up our consumer market for purely European alternatives to Microsoft with high interoperability.
