EU Commission presents Working Program 2025

parallel to the rail investment, the EU Commission presents its ambitious work program for 2025. This program aims to create less bureaucracy and more competitiveness in Europe. Urgently needed initiatives, such as the Clean Industrial Deal for emission reduction, form the centerpiece. Wolfgang Hattmannsdorfer, General Secretary of the Austria Chamber of Commerce, emphasizes that the competitiveness of Europe is under pressure than ever before and called for a rapid action to promote performance and competition. "Strategy papers do not make a competitive Europe, it only creates rapid action," Hattmannsdorfer explains.

A crucial element of the work program is the promotion of the internal market and the elimination of obstacles that still cause high costs. While the EU is working on comprehensive reforms, it is clear that strengthening the security structures is at the same time inevitable in order to counter the challenges of geopolitical instabilities. The program would also introduce new strategies to combat climate change and to secure energy safety in Europe that is necessary so that the continent does not fall back in international competition.
