  • EU foreign policy must not become a casualty of the euro crisis
    Opinion piece by Charles Grant
    EU Observer, 16 December 2011

    Dear EU leaders,

    We are seriously concerned about the impact that the current eurozone debt crisis is having on the external relations of the Union.

  • Is Turkey our partner now?
    Bulletin article by Katinka Barysch, 28 November 2011

    Six years after the start of accession talks, the EU and Turkey are struggling to keep up a semblance of progress. Having opened talks on 13 chapters of EU law by mid- 2010, they have not started on a new one for over a year now. Most of the remaining 22 chapters are blocked because of the Cyprus dispute and French opposition to full Turkish membership.

  • What Libya says about future NATO operations
    Insight by Tomas Valasek, 26 August 2011

    In Libya, the Europeans have for the first time responded to Washington's calls to assume responsibility for their neighbourhood. This should be cause for cautious optimism about NATO.

  • The US and the EU should support the Palestinian bid for UN membership

  • Britain draws the wrong lessons from Libya
    Bulletin article by Clara Marina O'Donnell, 01 August 2011

  • What Libya says about the future of the transatlantic alliance
    Essay by Tomas Valasek, 29 July 2011

    Libya is the first war fought according to Barack Obama's rules, with the United States taking a back seat. The Europeans responded well: by taking decisive military action to maintain the stability of their neighbourhood.

  • Palestinian reconciliation is an opportunity for peace
    Bulletin article by Clara Marina O'Donnell, 01 June 2011

    The Israeli-Palestinian conflict risks deteriorating further amidst the upheaval in the Arab world and Palestinian efforts to gain recognition at the UN. But one glimmer of hope has emerged.

  • Press freedom – the new accession criterion?
    Insight by Katinka Barysch, 16 May 2011

    Countries that want to join the EU need to show that their democracies work well. However, press freedom – a key ingredient of any pluralist democracy – is under threat in most of the countries that are now queuing for accession.
