Road transport is the leading cause of accidents, serious injuries from collisions and premature deaths in Europe. Worldwide, automobile manufacturers and technology firms are working on driving system innovation. As human error is the main reason for road traffic accidents, connected and automated vehicles could make future road transport safer and more secure. They also have the potential to be more environmentally friendly, efficient and accessible.

![Net-zero industry act [Policy podcast]
In March 2023, the European Commission put forward a proposal for a net-zero industry act that aims to expand the manufacturing capacity of net-zero technologies in the EU and enhance the resilience of its energy system. The proposed regulation would set up enabling conditions for the manufacturing of 10 net-zero technologies. The proposed regulation would aim to ensure that, by 2030, the manufacturing capacity in the EU for these strategic net-zero technologies reaches an overall benchmark of at least 40 % of the EUs annual deployment needs.

![China-Russia relations: A quantum leap? [Policy podcast]
Since 2012 – when Xi was first made General-Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) – the China-Russia relationship has evolved into an informal alliance in the face of what both countries consider a rising threat from the West to their regimes. Chinas response to Russias war on has so far been much closer to Russia than it was in 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea. At the same time, developments since Russias invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 have increased Russias dependency on China, which some now qualify as a rising vassalisation of Russia.
