This policy paper explores the EU's potential as a regulatory superpower and its leadership in promoting digital governance based on human rights, democratic values, and ethical considerations. It argues that to maintain its position as a pivotal player in the rapidly evolving geopolitical landscape, the EU must move beyond passive regulatory influence and actively forge strategic alliances with like-minded states across the Global North and South.
