delivered at the EUI. In the face of rising geopolitical tensions and the erosion of the international rules-based order, Minister Sikorski emphasized the fundamental choice facing Europe: between fragmentation and deeper cooperation. He placed particular emphasis on technological issues: he pointed out that properly managed investments in defense can stimulate innovation, create high-quality jobs and strengthen the continent&#8217;s technological potential. &#8220;Brand new research, technologies and industries with the label &#8216;Made in Europe&#8217; can emerge from the current turbulence,&#8221; he said. &#8211; The minister stressed, calling for breakthrough technologies to emerge in Europe and for the continent not to stand in the way of attracting global talent to European companies and academic institutions. <\/p><p>It is in this spirit that the agreement should be read as an institutional response to the need to build European analytical and strategic capacity in the areas of security, the innovation ecosystem and energy transition.  <strong>The document was signed by the EUI President  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eui.eu\/people?id=patrizia-nanz\">prof.
