| Summary |
The liberal rules-based order is under threat from both established opponents and former supporters. Europe has a vital interest in the preservation of a rules-based system, but it needs to rethink the elements of that order for a new global environment. The European Union can best support a rules-based order by ensuring its continuity at home; supporting liberal values abroad through the use of European economic power and alliances with like-minded states; and adjusting its strategy to protect the order's core elements in an era in which illiberal states have growing power. A sustainable vision of international order would acknowledge the value of sovereignty at the national and European levels, while offsetting this with a commitment to developing new global norms where necessary and to enhancing the role of non-state actors. This approach would help tie multilateralism to the defence of Europe's interests and values. The EU should put the defence of a redesigned rules-based order at the centre of its global strategy, and back it up by strengthening Europe's financial independence and security capacity. The EU should also prioritise efforts to compensate for the global diplomacy deficit that US President Donald Trump's policies have created |
