"I'm convinced madam President that your clearly defined strategy and [] leadership will benefit the Commission and the future of Europe. The priorities that you have set for the European Union are consequential. Europe has the potential to provide global leadership on such challenges we need to address urgently. Climate change, the Fourth Industrial Revolution, inclusive digitalization, gross competitiveness, as well as Europe's role in the world. I deeply believe that reconciling our planet and our economy with the goal of achieving the first climate neutral continent will serve, and has to serve, as a global whole model for sustainable capitalism. I look forward to witnessing the transformational journey under your leadership Madame President."
