In a pivotal week for both European and international politics, the EDPS selection enters its crucial second stage, promising a stronger stance against tech giants' overreach. As the Trump II era ushers in, it's anticipated to bring a much-needed realpolitik approach to global governance, prioritizing national interests and economic security. Amidst these developments, the EU's efforts to patch its health cybersecurity infrastructure, though imperfect, are laudable attempts at safeguarding its citizens from ever-evolving online threats, demonstrating a clear commitment to the bloc’s long-term resilience and sovereignty.

As the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) selection process proceeds into its second week, concerns are mounting over the candidates' commitment to safeguarding civil liberties in the digital age. Meanwhile, the dawn of the Trump II administration sends shivers down the spines of those advocating for a more inclusive and equitable international policy. Closer to home, glaring vulnerabilities in the EU's cybersecurity defenses for public health expose the lack of preparedness for future pandemics, calling into question the bloc's commitment to protecting its citizens from both physical and digital threats.
