People want jobs and a business environment that enables companies to innovate and grow. They want Europe to make things easier, fairer, and clearer. Last year's European elections marked a political shift that demanded a return to basics. People want effective and understandable systems—systems that simplify things rather than complicate them. On one hand, people seek economic stability. On the other hand, they are looking for opportunities. People believe in the way the European Union works, but they demand a renewed focus on ensuring prosperity and growth.
