En bref 06-12-2023

À l’approche de l’année électorale cruciale qui attend le Parlement européen et les États-Unis, le Parlement fait le point sur les relations UE-États-Unis pour la deuxième fois au cours de la législature. Si le rapport du Parlement de 2021 avait défini les priorités pour la relance des liens transatlantiques, celui de 2023 formule des recommandations en vue d’approfondir la coopération sur un large éventail de questions de politique étrangère, de sécurité et de défense. Il propose, entre autres, ...

L’invasion russe de l’Ukraine le 24 février 2022 et la guerre qui s’est ensuivie n’ont pas uniquement bouleversé la vie en Ukraine; l’Union européenne est, elle aussi, touchée. La décision du Conseil européen, le 24 juin 2022, d’accorder à l’Ukraine le statut de pays candidat à l’adhésion à l’Union renforce la nécessité d’une perspective à long terme pour les relations UE-Ukraine. La prospective stratégique peut aider à saisir les répercussions de la guerre en général et ses conséquences à long terme ...

As Ukraine continues its counter-offensive against the Russian invaders, the NATO summit in Vilnius vowed unwavering support for the country, and took decisions to simplify its path towards membership of the Western military alliance. NATO leaders said they would be able to invite Ukraine to join the Alliance once the country meets certain conditions. They declared continued support for Ukraine’s deterrence and defence in the short, medium, and long term, as well as for turning the Comprehensive ...

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan won a third term in office in elections in May, after years of growing authoritarianism in his secular Muslim country which is also a NATO member state. His presidential track record includes growing conflict with the European Union and United States, as well as unorthodox economic policies that have recently undermined people's living standards. After his victory in a run-off vote, Erdoğan promised an assertive foreign policy and a return to normalised economic ...

NATO's next summit, to take place from 11 to 12 July 2023, is being hosted by Lithuania, in Vilnius. Among the items topping the agenda will be support for Ukraine – including its eventual accession to the Alliance and security guarantees, NATO's defence plans and budgets, and Sweden's accession. The summit comes amid Russia's ongoing war on Ukraine and a fundamental overhaul of NATO's defence and deterrence framework.

This briefing provides an initial analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the European Commission's impact assessment (IA) accompanying the above-mentioned proposals, submitted on 7 December 2022 and referred to the European Parliament's Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (ECON). The initiative – which would modify the existing framework applying to EU central counterparties (CCPs) and market participants using their services – aims to reduce the over reliance of EU financial markets ...

Leaders of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) will meet in Vilnius on 11-12 July against the backdrop of a complex and volatile security environment. Russia’s war on Ukraine, and the latter country’s future membership of the military alliance will dominate the annual summit, according to many public statements. The meeting will aim to send a strong signal of support for Ukraine, reiterating NATO’s open door policy towards the country's membership, increasing military aid, pledging to make ...

On 1 June 2023, Moldova hosted the second meeting of the European Political Community (EPC) in Bulboaca, just a few kilometres from the Ukrainian border. The focus of this informal forum of 48 leaders from across the European continent was clearly more on peace and security – with all participants reiterating their unity in support of Ukraine – and less on energy and interconnectivity, the other topic on the agenda. Discussions took place in plenary and roundtable format, showing continuity in method ...

Two anti-Kremlin armed groups, made up of Russian nationals fighting for Kyiv against their compatriots, have claimed they were behind a short incursion into Russian territory, prompting threats from Moscow, as the West pondered further sanctions against Russia and more arms deliveries to Ukraine. Ukraine has denied any role in the raid, while Russia has blamed ‘Ukrainian nationalists’ for the attack, and its Defence Minister, Sergei Shoigu, has vowed that Moscow will respond to any more cross-border ...

The Russian aggression against Ukraine has highlighted the relative confusion that exists over the obligations that states have under Article 5 of the (NATO) Washington Treaty and Article 42(7) of the Treaty on European Union. Clarification and explanation of these articles has become particularly urgent as overlap between NATO and EU membership increases, following Finland and Sweden's application to join NATO.
