We are here at Czechoslovak Group, an important European player in defence.
I want to see many more innovative defence companies thrive in Europe.
For a strong and innovative 🇪🇺 defence industry.
For a strong Europe that can defend itself.
I have been 7 times in Ukraine, I have been in Bucha, I have seen the body bags.
The only one responsible for this war is Putin.
The programme of the far-right AfD echoes the lies and propaganda of the Kremlin.
So they should clean up their house first.

Investing in our European defence industry is needed because we face clear and present risks.
We need more military capabilities in Europe.
This is how we will build interoperable armed forces.
And how we will create good jobs in Europe!
