The landscape in which European Union trade policy operates has changed drastically in recent years. In addition to, and partly in competition with, its traditional objective of economic wellbeing, EU trade policy has become increasingly shaped by two other considerations: geopolitics and concerns over the resilience of supply chains, and climate change. This briefing note examines the emergence of this new landscape, how it has already affected EU trade policy with measures to increase European economic security and complement the European Green Deal, how it might affect EU trade policy in the next five years, and how the new landscape has already impacted and might affect in future the multilateral trading system. EU policymakers should be cautious about the economic and climate costs associated with geopolitical-driven policies, particularly in trade. The note ends with recommendations for EU trade policy, calling for a comprehensive assessment of costs in economic terms and climate objectives to safeguard living standards and maintain opportunities for international cooperation in the current context of heightened economic security concerns. Despite evident internal divisions over the EU's approach to multilateralism, finding a strategic balance between its traditional stance and fostering key trade partnerships is imperative.

The rise in geopolitical tensions in recent years and the weaponisation of trade links have led to an increased focus on economic security. With its Economic Security Strategy, the European Commission has put EU-level initiatives in this area into an overarching framework. In this in-depth analysis, we discuss the challenges posed by economic security and the approaches to it taken by other large economies. We then analyse the European strategy in this framework. While the EU has been slower than other large economies to focus on economic security, it has learned from its peers and there has been a notable evolution of European measures in this area. However, challenges remain, in particular with regard to the coordination of measures that are still largely national competencies. Furthermore, more could be done to align incentives for both companies and countries to avoid moral hazard risks. Finally, more progress has to be done to align the foreign policies of EU countries to give credibility to economic security instruments. Source : © European Union, 2024 - EP
A two-week operation by officers from the Central Police Division identified 12 suspects in an extortion scam which involved the use of manipulated obscene pictures. The seven men and five women, aged between 18 and 46, allegedly provided bank information and SIM cards acquired through illegal means, the police said in a statement on Wednesday (May 1). They are also suspected of assisting in unauthorised accessing of Singpass accounts. The suspects were allegedly given or promised commissions, preliminary investigations revealed. At least $115,000 in suspected criminal proceeds — some purportedly linked to other scam cases — were recovered and an array of electronic devices were seized during the operation. A 23-year-old woman is due to be charged in court on Thursday for facilitating unauthorised access to computer material, an offence that carries a jail term of up to two years, a fine, or both. Threatening letters with manipulated photos Over 170 reports involving extortionary letters have been made between March and April, said the police.
Photos of two car-sharing electric vehicles (EVs) that were left behind and parked randomly at different multistorey car parks surfaced on Facebook group SG Road Vigilante this week. In one post, an empty GetGo car is shown parked in front of an up-going ramp at a multistorey car park. The post, put up on Tuesday (April 29), stated that the photo was taken on April 26 but did not name the car park's location. A separate post on the same day shared photos of a BlueSG car parked, against the flow of traffic, right outside the exit of a multistorey car park in Tampines. GetGo and BlueSG are car-sharing platforms that allow users to rent out their vehicles at different rates. Those who use EVs must return their vehicles to designated charging stations. BlueSG has only EVs for rental. Non-EVs rented from GetGo must be returned at the rental location. 'Anyhow park' or ran out of juice? Many netizens called out the driver of the GetGo car, accusing the person of being irresponsible and inconsiderate. «Yes, they anyhow park,» one commented. «Not their car so they don't care.»
Some enhancements will be made to the new on-board unit (OBU) for the ERP 2.0 system, said the Land Transport Authority (LTA) on Thursday (May 2). This comes after feedback from drivers that placing the processing unit on the left passenger footwell made it difficult for them to reach for the Cepas card (such as Nets FlashPay card, Nets Motoring Card or EZ-Link Motoring Card). In its press release on Thursday, LTA said that since April 19 this year, they have introduced a button on the touchscreen display so that drivers can press on it and deactivate their Cepas card without removing it from the processing unit. This allows them to use their complimentary parking ticket at the car park. If the driver forgets to reactivate the card after leaving the car park, it will not affect their ERP payments as the correct amount will still be deducted from the card balance when the vehicle reaches an active ERP gantry. The installation of the OBU began with a group of early adopters in August 2023, and so far, more than 18,000 vehicles have installed the OBU, said LTA.
