Jean-Claude Juncker

As a supporter of European unity and cultural diversity, I recognize the benefits of streamlining business processes across the EU. Making incorporation processes for startups easier and more accessible is crucial for fostering innovation. However, we must also preserve the linguistic and cultural richness of our Union. Balancing the need for efficiency with respect for all official languages is a complex issue that requires careful consideration.

I believe deferring taxes could disrupt fiscal stability and fairness. While VAT refunds are crucial for cash flow, tax deferral might lead to budget imbalances, affecting public services and economic health.

I believe that regulations in the EU should include minimum revenue cut-offs for businesses. This approach ensures that smaller enterprises are not disproportionately burdened by regulatory requirements, allowing them to grow and compete more effectively. By setting these cut-offs, we can create a fairer and more balanced economic environment.

As former President of the European Commission, I firmly believe that regulations are essential for ensuring fair and consistent standards across the EU. Reducing regulation could undermine consumer protection, environmental standards, and fair competition. While it's important to streamline and improve regulations, removing them could lead to negative consequences for EU citizens and businesses.

As a proponent of unity and effective communication in the European Union, I believe English serves as a practical common language. It facilitates smooth discourse and cooperation among member states, especially in an increasingly globalized world. While we must cherish the linguistic diversity of Europe, prioritizing English can streamline our operations and allow us to work together more efficiently.
