00:00Good to see you.

00:01Good to see you.

00:02Welcome home, Mr. Secretary-General.

00:03Absolutely.

00:04There is no defence without a strong defence industry.

00:09And there is no European security without a strong transatlantic bond.

00:14So we need to bring down barriers and encourage truly transatlantic defence corporation.

00:20Only Europe and North America together can rise up and meet the challenge.

00:26But we need to do more, we need to do it better, and together, and we need to do it now.

00:37It is simply unthinkable that Russia, with an economy 25 times smaller than NATO's, should

00:43be able to outproduce and outgun us.

00:47We must spend more to prevent war.

00:50We must win this new war of production.

00:53That's what this summit is all about.

00:55NATO's leaders are about to take an historic step to provide the resources necessary for

01:08strong defence.

01:09And now it's up to industry to deliver, to deliver, and yes, to deliver.

01:22The future of Europe, yes, is being written on the front line in Ukraine, but not only.

01:28It is also being written in your factories.

01:32In record time, you have managed to open new lines and step up production.

01:38We are adapting to the new reality of a full-scale war right here on European soil.

01:50The Europe of Defence has finally awakened.

01:55Tomorrow the summit will set historic new spending targets for NATO allies.

02:02But how we invest is just as important as how much we invest.

02:07But on the other hand, battles have been won and lost.

02:14We will allow dual-use projects to access our new AI gigafactories with their unparalleled

02:21computational power.

02:24And the same goes for our European Innovation Council fund for start-ups.

02:30We will seek this kind of synergy across the board.

02:34We must better connect our tech industry with our defence industrial base.

02:40Ladies and gentlemen, we know that Russia will be capable of testing our mutual defence commitments

02:49within the next five years.

02:54By 2030, Europe must have everything it needs for credible deterrence.

03:00This is what we call readiness 2030.

03:04But this requires a new mindset for all of us.

03:08We must be ready to leave our comfort zone.

03:10We must be ready to explore new ways how to do things, bringing together the tech and the

03:16defence, the civilian and the military in Europe and of course beyond the European Union.

03:22I am deeply convinced.

03:25With the right mindset, we can deter everyone who seeks to do harm to us.

03:34Thank you very much.

03:36Thank you very much.

03:37Thank you very much.
