Oct 1, 2024 | carnegieendowment.org | Stefan Lehne

On the face of it, the EU’s institutional transition of 2024 has been going well. The radical right once again failed to make a decisive breakthrough in the European Parliament elections.

Many political elites in emerging countries not only consider the EU and its member states a declining force in global politics but also accuse them of double standards for mobilizing support for Ukraine while ignoring crucial concerns of countries in the South. Resentments that accumulated over centuries of European domination are coming to the fore.
A Reluctant Magnet: Navigating the EU’s Absorption Capacity

Sep 21, 2023 | carnegieeurope.eu | Stefan Lehne

The EU’s 2022 decision to grant candidate country status to Moldova and Ukraine suddenly revived the debate on the union’s capacity to integrate further member states, a debate that had been dormant for more than fifteen years.
The Comeback of the European Commission

Apr 24, 2023 | carnegieeurope.eu | Stefan Lehne |Francesco Siccardi

Since the outbreak of the eurozone crisis in 2009, the European Union (EU) has been in permanent crisis-management mode. That challenge was followed by mass inflows of refugees and migrants in 2015 and 2016, Brexit, tensions with the United States following the election of Donald Trump as U.S. president, the rule of law crisis in Hungary and Poland, the coronavirus pandemic, and the Russian aggression against Ukraine.
