Opening speech by the Secretary-General Klaus WELLE- 9th Innovation Day: The EU in the world created by the Ukraine war

Are you a game breaker or a game changer? The game, played out as an intense Rubik’s Cube competition, is an allegorical contest between Europe and a rival. Both competitors adapt the game to suit their own particular vision: but whereas aggression only conjures up images of conflict and instability, Europe’s ability to see the future is the only strategy capable of changing the game, widening it's limit, in a search for sustainable progress out of disorder. In an ever-changing world, do we seek to maintain chaos in the short-term or look beyond the here and now to ensure a stable future? Game Changers was the opening film presented to Roberta Metsola, President of the European Parliament (EP), Klaus Welle, EP Secretary-General, Philippe Législe-Costa, French Ambassador to the EU, the EP management, and streamed thrice to the EP staff during all the plenary sessions throughout the 9th Management Innovation Day on 1 July 2022 in Brussels.

Klaus Welle, Secretary General of the European Parliament, reflects on ESPAS’s role to identify and clarify future scenarios in order to avoid them. Today these range from the tensions between Russia and Ukraine and in the Islamic world to Brexit and many other issues inside the EU and within Member States. In these circumstances, how will the EU preserve the possibility of Europeans to decide on their own future? To secure strategic autonomy, the EU needs to build its own executive capacity. What needs to be done over the next 10 years is to be defined. In this respect, ESPAS can grow from being a mere annual event into engaging in a more permanent cooperation.
