The European Conservatives and Reformists in the European Parliament want the EU and the US to coordinate their foreign policies more closely.
Anna Fotyga, foreign policy coordinator for the ECR group, said the bond between Brussels and Washington was “the most important partnership in the world”. Unfortunately, in a “time of challenges and multiple threats”, there are still many details to be discussed.
For example, an “agricultural Ramstein” is needed to help Ukraine to finance her defence, but also to help EU countries distribute and transit Ukrainian grain production. “It is not enough for the European Union alone to absorb market shocks caused by Russian aggression. We need a broader approach”, Fotyga said.
