@marcosagusstinn Well, correct ☑️ it is easy to start business in the Nordic countries and the high education level of people in general in these countries makes it easier to find high-skilled workers! It is more of a challenge for low-skill labor, but that’s another story.

The Nordic model is often misunderstood. It is the combination of a large state with high economic freedom. Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway all have tax-to-GDP ratios above the OECD average. Denmark reached around 45% of GDP in 2024, while Sweden, Finland and Norway remain around or above 40%. Public expenditure is also high: Sweden and Norway were close to 50% of GDP in 2024. Yet these countries are not anti-market economies. Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland consistently rank among the world’s freest economies, with strong property rights, open trade, low corruption, efficient regulation and high business freedom. The results are clear. The Nordics combine universal welfare states with high productivity, high employment, strong human capital and world-class innovation. In the 2025 Global Innovation Index, Sweden ranked 2nd globally, Finland 7th, and Denmark 9th. This is the real lesson of the Nordic system: A large state can work when it is paired with open markets, institutional trust, fiscal discipline, education, innovation, competition and efficient public administration.

@EU_Commission Great for traveling on vacations!

🚆 One journey. One ticket. Full rights. Travelling by train across Europe can still be complicated, especially across borders and multiple providers. We want to change that. Our new package will make it easier ⬇️

@ForeignPolicy Development assistance is important on so many fronts! Stabilizing countries, managing migration and fostering economic growth in both receiving and donating countries! + it gives goodwill that can benefit in future negotiations 😊

Even as global development assistance declines, the EU is scaling up—committing €200B to external action. FP Analytics’ synthesis report, produced with rani’s support, shows how this investment can deliver stability and stronger partnerships: fpanalytics.foreignpolicy.com/2026/04/30/inv…

@ForeignPolicy Two big egos clash and don’t see the world around them… surprise… probably some good consulting is needed in the world they make…

Both Beijing and Washington are too preoccupied with their own myths to notice the world shifting around them. foreignpolicy.com/2026/05/13/tru…
