First of all, I want to thank Prime Minister Sánchez, dear Pedro, for hosting us in this amazing place. What an experience. Yesterday, you hosted the EPC, and today, the informal European Council. Many thanks for the very warm welcome. Today's informal Summit was about preparing for the future. We met, as you know, 18 months ago in Versailles, right after the beginning of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. And today, we took stock of what we committed to, back then: a more secure, competitive Europe – with stronger defence capabilities, energy independence, and a robust economy.
