Connecting Europe (Conectar europa)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I would like to see improved transport connections, especially rail transport, by increasing frequencies, reducing travel times and including new journeys and destinations, especially as regards the rail connections of the Ppen nsule ib rica to the rest of Europe.
At present, the train services connecting Espa to and Portugal and the rest of the EU’s PS are m ‘nimos’ or ‘pr’ null and void, and it is even impossible to travel by train between Lisbon and Madrid (when the distance is just 600 km), if CO2 emissions are to be reduced, we must strive to replace the aircraft with sustainable transport, and this is feasible if a serious investment is made in the train.

The world is at peace. People came to their senses when they were on the brink of war. All borders have been abolished - everyone can move freely. Through the exchange of knowledge and culture, we have expanded our horizons, and scientists have made many discoveries. No one is excluded, everyone works together. It is not money that counts, but skills that can be developed. We behave responsibly towards the nature around us - we understood that we create a symbiosis.

2040?2050? 2025? It's time to take stock, because nature is still suffering, despite all the warnings. Remember, it's not that long ago, it was 15 years ago, and even more so now, but our politicians still don't give a damn. And war? of course it's still with us, and it's costing our so-called free nations more and more. Free from Trump and the mad right, fortunately, because remember how much we have suffered from so many lies, so much false information... But Russia and China have banded together against Europe and America, along with certain African countries. Fortunately, Latin America remains neutral. A sad vision of our world in 2040, led by a pseudo-artificial intelligence that has cut off all human relationships. No more flowers to put on the cannons, which in fact no longer exist, given that conflicts are delivered by drones. The plan was to deliver parcels and medicines by this means, but no, the conflict in Ukraine, which was 15 years ago, was just the beginning of this new way of fighting. Fewer dead soldiers, but more civilians buried, not to say smoked out, like 95 years ago. Fortunately, Europe has become more united, to become the lighthouse that many had hoped for, without really believing in it.

In my future I would like more funding for schools and health care and fewer weapons. Europe would be stronger and more influential in the world economy, not in an overbearing way but to be a support for even the most struggling countries. In my future, diversity will be a matter of course and accepted, not an excuse to be able to marginalize what is different. However, we should not all become equal (in dignity, freedom and rights yes) but learn to value our individuality and that of others. In my future, Europe will value the cultures of every country on the continent. Culture will not be a means by which we "prove ourselves superior to others," but a treasure to be shared and known. In addition, the problem of pollution will finally be addressed and fought with all the necessary tools, not with empty promises and indifference.

In 2040, the political situation in my country could be very different. All projects funded with taxpayers' money would be public, and there would be no corruption or profiteering. Also, by 2040, the use to which all tax revenues are put could be clearly known, and these taxes should also improve people's lives - for example, fuel excise duty or car tax should ensure that roads are in good condition and seasonally maintained.
