Centre for European Reform

Sander Tordoir, Chefökonom des Think-Tanks Centre for European Reform (CER), begrüsst von der Leyens Ankündigung zum 28. Regime. Es würde jungen EU-Firmen dabei helfen, „schneller in mehreren Ländern aktiv zu werden und von einer größeren Marktgröße zuprofi tieren - was vor allem in den Bereichen Technologie und digitale Dienstleistungen wichtig ist“, sagte er Table. 

Charles Grant, director of the Centre for European Reform, said the summit will allow Sir Keir to “hobnob and establish human connections” with European leaders he has never met. It will also give the PM a chance “to set out the direction and scope” of how he wants to reset UK-EU relations.
“Keir Starmer’s personality in itself will do more than people realise,” Mr Grant said.
“He is diligent, sensible, serious, he reads his briefs, he believes in the rule of law and international institutions. The Europeans will like that.”

Any warming of relations will begin with setting a new tone, Luigi Scazzieri, a senior research fellow at the think-tank, Centre for European Reform, said, telling The Parliament that “a lot of it is about mood, and just having good relations and trying to build on that.” ...“It’s a political wound that is still so fresh,” Scazzieri said. “They really didn’t want to touch it.” 

One advantage of a security deal would be that it would provide a permanent forum where the UK can interact with the EU on foreign policy. “We’d be able to take part in structured chit-chat on a regular basis,” said Charles Grant of the Centre for European Reform.
