On 5 June, the European Commission and the EEAS published a Joint Communication that officially launched the EU’s new International Digital Strategy. This clearly shows how important digital diplomacy has become over the past few years and it’s a long-awaited step in the EU’s ambition to become a stronger and more effective player in global digital governance.
Compared to previous efforts, the new strategy is significantly improved in terms of coherence, breadth and ambition. Because of this, it adequately responds to repeated calls for stronger EU leadership in global digital affairs that featured in several earlier strategies (Cybersecurity, Digital Decade, Economic Security Strategy, Competitiveness Compass) and high-level reports (such as Draghi, Letta, and Heitor). But, as is always the case, how the strategy is implemented going forward will be key to its success.
