Honouring Frank #Gehry
Our #PariserPlatzDialogue has taken place at the stunning AXICA Forum in Berlin - a space shaped by his extraordinary vision.
The iconic horsehead, the flowing lines, the unique atmosphere… his architecture made our event special.
Thank you for the legacy, Frank Gehry.

Always a pleasure to attend the terrific Pariser Platz conference.
And honoured to share some thoughts on the economic and funding challenges of Europes defence rampup.

Quite odd to be talking at a Franco German think tank event on the day of the leak of the US intention to "liberate" Europe from the government 27 countries have elected (the EU), and Xi apparently brutally rebuffed Macron's request for support on Ukraine. But I did learn a lot from the meeting.
Meanwhile, in the plenary hall, @luisequaritsch.bsky.social moderates a conversation on digital sovereignty and democratic resilience with @j2bryson.bsky.social, @aliciacombaz.bsky.social, Felix Kartte and @annaluehrmann.bsky.social on the panel. #PariserPlatzDialogue #PPD2025

Nur eine Frage: Ist Demokratie die beste Staatsform, Jan-Werner Müller?
Können Demokratien noch Antworten finden auf die Krisen der Welt? Der Politikwissenschaftler Jan-Werner Müller sagt: Ja, auch wenn sie bei Weitem nicht perfekt sind.

Contrary to some confused commentary, hidden trade barriers in the EU single market are nowhere near a 45% tariff.
The good news: Europe has integrated remarkably well.
The bad news: it also means there are fewer low-hanging fruits left to boost intra-EU trade. cepr.org/voxeu/column...

No, the EU does not impose a 45% tariff on itself
A recent paper which has gathered significant attention estimates a 45% tariff equivalent of intra-EU border costs. This column argues that this estimate is likely too high and depends on the particular dataset used and specific estimation choices. Therefore, it also vastly overstates the barriers that are akin to tariffs and could be lowered as a result of European Commission policy decisions. Instead, it argues that there are more urgent reforms with larger potential benefits, such as boosting EU innovation capacity and R&D spending.

At this rate, the upcoming December package on the Industry Accelerator Act and the automotive package could end up being the most consequential EU industrial policy move in years.
