Council of the European Union European Council
Follow its sittings00:22 - 01:47
Micheál Martin
Premier ministre irlandais
Good morning. First of all, looking forward to welcoming all leaders from the EPC to Dublin today. An important meeting, the EPC established since 2022, credit to Emmanuel Macron at the time, obviously, in the context of geopolitical turmoil, war on the continent of Europe, and also the need for greater coherence. European leaders who are members of the European Union meet regularly. The benefit of the EPC is it broadens all that to many other countries within the European continent and beyond.
Canada is arriving today as well, which enables us to deal with some fairly fundamental issues. The theme today being a more connected European continent, connected in the sense of both people-to-people connections, but physical connections, technological connectivity, and, of course, energy.
These are big topics for all countries. And when countries come together, we can develop common solutions to those particular problems and to those issues, be it affordable energy, be it security and protection, particularly in terms of the technological attacks that are happening on a regular basis, and also in terms of economic security, critical raw materials, rare earth minerals, and how do we collectively make sure that there's security for people in respect of those issues.
