🔍 EU budget proposal: right priorities, too little ambition @zsoltdarvas.bsky.social scrutinises the European Commission's budget proposal, both in light of the subsequent debate it has ignited and with reference to Bruegel's own blueprint for an MFF revamp 🔗 buff.ly/ETkRHbk #EconSky

Support for EU membership is rising in Norway and Iceland, because “non-integrated, neutral states do not function as buffer zones between spheres of influence. To aggressive great powers with imperial mindsets, they appear as easy prey, inviting predatory behaviour.” euobserver.com/eu-and-the-w...

Why it's time for Norway and Iceland to join EU
