@TomWlost And member states are often the biggest obstacle to efforts to strengthen the single market, seeking to protect national economic actors and gold plating legislation. Every time I ask about capital markets union or its successors, I’m told German banks won’t allow it….

100% true.👇What drives most business lobbyists crazy is that EU governments are as much to blame, if not more, as EC for bad regulation. They first wave through a lot of badly written regulation, later to blame EC for its content, as if they have not participated in drafting it.
Alberto Alemanno 🇪🇺@alemannoEU

Ahead of extraordinary EU Council, EU heads of state & governments blast Commission regulations as too much. What they won’t tell you: THEY approved every single rule, often after requesting them first. Yet another inconvenient truth about #EUCO’s deregulation drive

@ACEurope Glad to be part of this effort, laying out the possible consequences of two very different US administrations for our European partners. Kudos to @ACEurope for putting together a report that covers all the key issues in transatlantic relations.

A European Commission focused on competitiveness and security, but with some way to go before taking office. Hear more in this “Atlantic Debrief.”
Atlantic Council Europe Center@ACEurope

What’s next for the EU’s political transition? @JornFleck and @FranBurwell unpack the list of Commissioners-designate, their portfolios and implications for the EU’s political agenda for an “on the ground” from Strasbourg episode of the #AtlanticDebrief. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@nigelcory @ITIFdc Excellent report; this is exactly the type of US-EU cooperation that the TTC should pursue; cybersecurity labeling is going to affect all of our smart phones and other connected devices. Incompatible US and EU rules will create new trade barriers. @ACEurope

My latest: Why the US & EU Should Seize the Moment to Cooperate on Cybersecurity Labeling for IoT Devices at the TTC. There's a window of opportunity given US-EU programs are at a formative stage to align on standards & conformity testing. 1/6 🧵@ITIFdc bit.ly/3xffOZ6

Had an excellent discussion on @ACEurope’s #AtlanticDebrief podcast with @FranBurwell and @brandobenifei on the #AIAct and its most important achievements. We also discussed the trilogue’s difficult compromises and what impact the law will have on Europe’s innovation ecosystem.
Atlantic Council Europe Center@ACEurope

What is the impact of the EU’s AI Act? @FranBurwell sits down with the co-rapporteurs of the #AIAct MEPs @IoanDragosT and @brandobenifei to discuss the latest negotiations and what influence the legislation will have on the global regulatory landscape. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

The US-EUSummit on Friday comes at a very geopolitical moment. What must the US and #EU do to respond? Thoughts from myself and @GRiekeles: bit.ly/3S4z5Vh

The #EU doesn’t need institutional reform before enlargement as much as it needs political will, including in member states tempted to use enlargement to achieve other ends. See my comments with those of great @AtlanticCouncil colleagues.

10 years have passed since the EU last accepted a new member. @AtlanticCouncil experts break down current debates over 🇪🇺 enlargement & explore prospects for potential new members & a few wild cards (🇦🇱 🇧🇦 🇬🇪 🇽🇰 🇲🇩 🇲🇪 🇲🇰 🇷🇸 🇹🇷 🇺🇦 🇬🇧) Read more 🔽 atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atla…

The EU #AIAct still has a way to go before becoming law, and then there will be the challenges of implementation. But the European Parliament vote shows that serious legislators can address this complex issue. A useful 🧵from @ACEurope 👇
Atlantic Council Europe Center@ACEurope

Today, the European Parliament adopted its position on the 🇪🇺 AI Act—one of the first major efforts to regulate this rapidly evolving technology. A🧵on key takeaways🔽

Always a pleasure to talk about the US-EU TTC, esp with @GRiekeles @byingridb Helena Fu @WhiteHouse & @rupertschlegelm. Looking for even more concrete (not just aspirational) convergence at TTC5 in late 2023.
European Policy Centre@epc_eu

“Generative #AI is one of the strongest areas where we can see #convergence between the EU and the US. The EU’s AI Act and the TTC are intersecting, but we still don’t know how far this convergence will go”, explains @FranBurwell, Distinguished Fellow @AtlanticCouncil.

Today the US-EU TTC continued support for Ukraine and revealed a strong convergence on digital — protecting children and helping researchers — and a new emphasis on decarbonizing the environment. But will business stakeholders be satisfied? ec.europa.eu/commission/pre… @ACEurope

The US-EU Trade & Tech Council starts today. Time for the TTC to acknowledge that it is also a geopolitical body, not just tech and trade. My thoughts, with other @AtlanticCouncil and @epc_eu colleagues. @ACEurope #burwell" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atla…
