Macron is Still Trying to Save Europe. It's Harder Than Ever. | Voternomics

This week, we bring you highlights from Stephanie's conversation with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Berlin Global Dialogue.

He defends his decision to call for a snap election, and he issues a stark warning for the EU: a lack of investment and too much regulation will make the bloc unable to compete with the US and China. Berlin Global Dialogue Chair Lars-Hendrik Röller, chief economic advisor to former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, also appears on the panel.

This is the year of elections. Around 40 percent of the world has the chance to vote in 2024. And those votes will shape the geo-economic landscape for years to come.

The implications for business and democracy are huge and worth exploring, which is why Stephanie is joining Opinion columnist Adrian Wooldridge and Bloomberg contributor and former government advisor Allegra Stratton for a new series called “Voternomics.”

It’s a weekly look at the way geopolitics - and elections - are upending the longstanding assumptions of policymakers and business people around the world. In short, it’s a series about how elections mean business.
