This is important for recovery from the current crisis, as the modern world is based on multifaceted ...

EU response to economic coercion by third countries
This initiative focuses specifically on the issue of economic coercion and the EU's possible response, aiming to preserve the EU's open strategic autonomy and policy-making space. The IA clearly defines the problem, its underlying causes, and the objectives to address it.
