'Long live Europe'. Ursula von der Leyen's State of the Union speech underlines the existential challenges facing the idea of an integrated Europe. The danger is that the benefits of integration are taken for granted and lost through neglect. ec.europa.eu/commission/pre…
'China enables Russia's war against Ukraine. […] It carries out cyberattacks. It interferes in our democracies. It uses coercive trade practices. These aspects strain our relationship and make it increasingly hard to continue as before' (Kaja Kallas). consilium.europa.eu/en/meetings/fa…
'We stand united in our objective to forge a new ambitious and comprehensive partnership that responds to the needs of today and will evolve to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future' (EU-Canada joint statement). consilium.europa.eu/en/meetings/in…
'Even if enlargement accelerates and one or two countries make it into the union by the early 2030s, Europeanization will not be the only game in town' (Dimitar Bechev). carnegieendowment.org/research/2025/…
The latest meeting of the Weimar+ constellation and an opportunity to coordinate EU and UK perspectives in the run up to the NATO Ministerial Summit. eeas.europa.eu/eeas/joint-sta…
With the NATO ministerial summit and the European Council scheduled for the week after next, this is a timely reminder of the progress achieved in the development of EU-NATO relations. Europe has come a long way since the Berlin Plus agreement in 2002. consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press…
A full agenda including the provision of financial support for Radio Free Europe following the discontinuation of US support. RFE was an invaluable source of information on Central and Eastern Europe during the Cold War as indeed remains the case today. consilium.europa.eu/en/meetings/fa…
An important step forward in the rebuilding of EU-UK relations. The challenges facing Keir Starmer now are to explain to the British public the practical benefits of closer cooperation with the EU and build confidence in the UK in Brussels. consilium.europa.eu/en/meetings/in…
'What is Europe's role in this new world?' (António Costa). A fundamental question indeed and an important one to keep in mind in the coming years as the EU and 'Wider Europe' respond to the challenges of Great Power politics. consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press…
A low key affair but the EPC summit in Tirana should still be viewed in a positive light. It was a political victory for Albanian PM Edi Rama in his push for EU membership and all opportunity for wider European cooperation beyond the EU is inherently good. consilium.europa.eu/en/meetings/in…
'To succeed in the geopolitical age, enlargement requires real determination, a much higher level of engagement, and a genuine readiness to innovate' (Stefan Lehne). carnegieendowment.org/europe/strateg…
Established in February this year, the Weimar+ format represents a useful step in bringing the UK back into the European fold. It's where the UK belongs and where it needs to be in order to take forward cooperation with its closest strategic partners.

'An enhanced security and defence relationship between the UK and EU is key to improving the lives of our people and making our continent more safe and secure' (Weimar+ Joint Statement). Important momentum building ahead of the EU-UK summit next week. gov.uk/government/new…
The Franco-German motor restarted, the Weimar Triangle resurrected, EU-UK relations reset. A good day for Ukraine and positive signals for European security cooperation.
'Consolidation of foreign-policy decision making within the government, and cash to give substance to German leadership and smooth divides at home—should set up Merz to be the foreign-policy chancellor Europe needs' (Jeremy Cliffe and Jana Puglierin). ecfr.eu/article/from-f…
'The Franco–German engine can no longer claim to power the whole of the EU. It takes more than two to tango in today’s EU of 27' (Sebastien Maillard). chathamhouse.org/2025/05/merz-a…
Heartening to see the UK back at the European table.
The conundrum facing the EU remains how to achieve effective cooperation with the US Administration when President Trump continues to hold Ukraine responsible for the war. It really is a case of parallel realities.

With National Assembly elections scheduled for April 2026 at the latest, this will be a crucial opportunity for Hungarians to choose their path and to decide on the nature of their relationship with the EU.

Unclear still how the EU will navigate the 'Hungarian blockage' in foreign policy decision making. A successful long-term strategy needs a solid consensus not workarounds. consilium.europa.eu/en/meetings/fa…
