Located in the heart of Europe, it is one of the most dynamic regions and concentrates a high potential for innovation and competitiveness.The aim of the strategy is to deepen cooperation to benefit more than 70 million Europeans to address key challenges such as mobility, protection of alpine biodiversity, high vulnerability to climate change and the aging population.

I will be very attentive to what the General Affairs Council, in which I represent France, adopt as soon as possible.
