German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Monday expressed support for a proposal by French President Emmanuel Macron for an expanded European political forum.

Leaders from the European Union and its European partners needed “a regular exchange at the political level… to discuss the key issues that affect our continent as a whole, such as security, energy, the climate, and connectivity”, Scholz said.

The new forum was “not an alternative to the upcoming process of EU enlargement”, he added in the speech at Charles University in Prague outlining his vision for the bloc.
