EU launches secure digital connectivity plan

On November 9, 2026, the European Commission launched the "EU Comprehensive Secure Connectivity Package" at the first Digital High-Level Connectivity Platform meeting. Commissioner Kos announced at the meeting that the related initiatives could bring over €620 million in secure digital connectivity investment, and the EU exchanged ten declarations of intent with partner countries, European companies, and international financial institutions. The package also includes the launch of the SkyRoad secure satellite connectivity program, mobilizing over €500 million with the EBRD to build the EU–Türkiye–South Caucasus digital gateway, and the launch of WiFi4Moldova to provide free public Wi-Fi to 30 municipalities in Moldova. The above initiatives are currently in the launch phase, and specific implementation arrangements have not yet been disclosed in the report.
