Mario Draghi warns Europe is falling further behind US, China due to government complacency

Mario Draghi, the former chief of the European Central Bank, has raised alarms about the EU's declining competitiveness compared to the US and China. In a recent statement, he criticized member states for their slow response and complacency, noting that the challenges he highlighted a year ago have only intensified. With rising tariffs from the US and a growing trade deficit with China, Draghi emphasizes the urgent need for clear strategies to finance essential investments. This situation is crucial as it could impact Europe's economic future and its ability to compete on a global scale.
