EU Politics
Montenegro’s ambition to join the EU by 2028 faces significant challenges due to unresolved disputes with Croatia. Recently, Brussels postponed an intergovernmental conference as Croatia blocked the closure of multiple negotiating chapters, highlighting the urgency for both nations to reach a resolution.
The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) secured a stronghold in the recent Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania election, highlighting how Europe’s energy crisis is influencing political landscapes. With major elections approaching in France and Italy, rising fuel prices are propelling populist agendas across the continent.
European leaders are responding to rising oil prices as Saudi cargo deliveries face disruptions from Middle Eastern conflicts. The closure of the East-West oil pipeline threatens up to 4% of global supply, prompting urgent measures, including France’s push for alternative routes and Italy’s abolition of car taxes to alleviate costs.
Relations between Brussels and Beijing reach a pivotal moment, with the European Commission aiming for “tangible” results by October to address a record €1 billion daily trade deficit with China. Crucial discussions led by EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič will occur in Beijing this week, shaping the future of EU-China trade policy.
