Brussels, My Love? Can the EU ever become a superpower?
At a medieval castle in the Belgian countryside last week, European leaders gathered to discuss competitiveness, deregulation, industrial policy and the future of the Single Market. In this episode, we unpack what this retreat was all about: Who’s pushing for cutting red tape? Who wants deeper integration? Is deregulation the key to the EU’s economic growth? Is “pragmatic federalism” the secret ingredient for a powerful Europe? To answer these questions, we sit down with MLex managing editor for Europe, Kait Bolongaro, president of Eurochambres, Vladimír Dlouhý and President of the Foundation for European Progressive Studies and former EU Commissioner, Nicolas Schmit.
Brussels, My Love? is Euronews' weekly podcast hosted by Méabh Mc Mahon, giving you all the context you need to make sense of the European Union (EU).
From plans to transition from an economic trading bloc to a military powerhouse to bans on tofu sausages, you’ll discover how EU laws are debated and created, along with sharp analysis from some of Brussels’ brightest minds.
