The European Union and Japan have launched a new Competitiveness Alliance, deepening their partnership to promote free and fair trade, strengthen economic security, and enhance cooperation in technology and defense. This move comes amid rising global trade tensions, particularly with the US imposing tariffs and concerns over China's trade practices and dominance in critical sectors like rare earths. Both sides pledged to work together on supply chain resilience, energy security, and joint procurement of key resources to reduce reliance on China. The alliance also aims to set a new standard for a rules-based international order and multilateral cooperation. Leaders emphasized the importance of innovation, industrial policy, and defending open markets in an increasingly fractured global trade environment.
