Summary:
The European Commission will propose new rules subjecting key foreign investments to strict conditions around sharing technologies, hiring local workers and setting up joint ventures with European companies.
The proposed system will also introduce strict new rules on public procurement processes, including requirements for a minimum percentage of European-origin content in purchased products.
Unless this addresses the cost, it will keep declining.
If people already struggle with inflation, stagnant salaries and rising living cost – they will not/cannot choose the costly EU made options.
Manufacturing can’t grow without consumers.
How? You’ve an enormously powerful Green political bloc all over Europe that will fight any attempt at re-industrialisation and nuclear energy independence with all their might.
Nothing will change if we don’t first address the ideological reasons why our industrial base has been in decline since the 1980s.
Pro tip: this is linked to the economic ideology that claims greed is good.
This same greed that has pushed the owners of our industries to relocate and focus solely on short-term profits without a long-term vision, unlike a number of other asiatic countries like China, south Korea or Taiwan
Next step should be a buy EU law for government procurement.
It’s gonna get killled by German car makers and Eastern Europe
American news site shared from a phone made in China to amother American website, probably from a country with American military bases.
Europe dug itself a deep hole, it’ll be a miracle if it climbs out of it.
Solving problems through legislation is certainly a good method for attracting manufacturing businesses to Europe 🙂
Proudly Made in Europe!
Made in Europe with Love!
Not many industries are looking to manufacture here to begin with. But even if we ignore that I fully expect people to throw a fit about foreign governments buying influence in the EU if this is even attempted
Additional laws and regulation is exactly what is needed to stop the industrial decline. /s
Its trying to fix the symptom but not touch the issue. european industry simply isnt competitive
Do it put it on every product on the selves. I wanna see where they are from.

This is just protectionism, if we go down this path of behaving like miserable poor worms we’ll never achieve economic dominance
What we need is to strengthen our internal market by removing barriers and removing pointless regulations
Doesn’t India already do something similar
When Bloomberg with their neoliberal globalist agenda is complaining, you know the proposal is a good idea.
Europe is being abused by agressive market strategies by China, tariffs by the US, and tax avoidance by all multinationas.
Lower energy prices and it will come back.
Low energy costs with subsidising automatiom/robotics would do wonders.
Personally I think it would be more important to find alternatives to American social media (Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, X, etc.).
Also other American big tech companies (Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Visa/MasterCard, etc.).
I rarely use Facebook, Instagram anymore and quit X all together, but I still use Reddit, Whatsapp, Visa, Microsoft Windows, Google (Android smartphones, Youtube, Google Pay, Google search engine, Google Chrome, etc.).
If Europe manages to find a balance between producing decent goods (that’s the easiest part) paying decent salaries and selling at decent prices, ok. But I doubt it. Made in Europe products are often (way) more expensive than the competition, so they are niche. The “alternative” is lowering wages, but, well, who’s gonna buy the products then?
It’s kind of a similar dilemma: [https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2026/1/16/billionaires-demand-more-babies-but-make-parenthood-unaffordable](https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2026/1/16/billionaires-demand-more-babies-but-make-parenthood-unaffordable)
What a cancer the EU is. European nations deindustrialized themselves with constant austerity and allowing companies to move manufacturing out in order to maximize profits, now they’re trying to claw up that shit with dog shit regulations that won’t fix anything.
It’s hard to re-industrialize without state intervention, without state funds and without the state incentivizing people towards education and training in those areas. How are we going to produce anything if we don’t have the expertise? There are actual morons ruling us
