Borrell’s remarks come at a time when the European Union is bracing for potential global upheavals — including the possibility of Donald Trump returning to the White House, the intensification of Russia’s war on Ukraine, and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
“At the beginning of my term, I said we need to learn how to speak the language of power,” Borrell stated. “To use the language of power, we must be united.”
As his tenure as the EU’s top diplomat draws to a close, Borrell is taking the opportunity during his final Foreign Affairs Council to introduce a proposal aimed at punishing Israel for its actions in the war against Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Borrell is set to be succeeded by former Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas, pending her confirmation by the European Parliament.
