EU must reform or risk irrelevance, Blair and Dimon say

A report led by Tony Blair and JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon warns Europe’s declining global GDP share requires urgent reforms to maintain security and economic influence amid U.S.-China rivalry.

  • On Dec 18 in London, a report led by Tony Blair, former British prime minister, and Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan Chase chief executive, warns the European Union must reform or risk irrelevance amid U.S.-China rivalry reshaping security and trade.
  • Analysts note a convergence of structural shifts reshaping nations, markets and institutions, altering security and economic dependencies while expanding ties to China, the report says.
  • Concrete cases include the report highlighting India and Gulf states facing tough choices, with JPMorgan Chase backing a $1.5 trillion, decade-long plan while Blair chairs its international council.
  • At the same time, the EU is convening a summit to discuss Ukraine funding as authors warn, `If it cannot stand on its own against Russia, it will be even less able to manage systemic competition with the U.S. or China.`
  • Looking ahead, the report says the United States retains enduring power but faces threats from political volatility and debt, while China must sustain growth despite demographic and debt constraints.
