Each week, we'll share with you some of the most compelling numbers in our studies.
40 percent
Europe’s stake in a free and open Indo-Pacific directly impacts its security and prosperity. For example, about 40 percent of the European Union’s foreign trade passes through the South China Sea.

80 nations
The first Summit on Peace in Ukraine facilitated agreement upon a peace plan that has so far been signed by over 80 nations—the widest international endorsement yet of principles to end the war.

38 percent
The European Union announced plans to introduce additional tariffs of up to 38 percent on imports of electric vehicles from China after finding that the industry benefits from "unfair subsidization."

19 seats
Europe's Green Party saw its impressive success in the 2019 European elections undone earlier this month, losing 19 seats in the EU elections amid the farmers’ protests taking place around Europe.
