“To be united in the #EU is to be a power in the world" said Othmar Karas, former first Vice-President of the European Parliament, as he returned to his alma mater last week.   Mr. Karas warmly welcomed every opportunity he had to engage in meaningful discussions, sharing his opinions on pressing issues in world politics today. 💡He talked about his responsibility as the vice-president of the European Parliament, having to represent all 450 million citizens of Europe, not just one individual nation, being quite a demanding task. In a world of unrest, Mr. Karas urges that more listening, stronger debates, and greater solidarity in EU politics is needed, saying, “We as politicians are not listening enough. Instead, we are defending too much what we are doing.”   It was a pleasure to have Mr. Karas share his expertise on Europe’s future through course visits, a student event with the Sicherheitspolitisches Forum St.Gallen (SPF), and discussions with faculty members, including Prof. Tina Freyburg, Prof. PhD Dirk Lehmkuhl, Prof. Ph.D. Suzanne Enzerink, Prof. Dr. Claudia Franziska Brühwiler, Prof. Dr. Ulrich Schmid and Prof. Ph.D. James Davis.   Mr. Karas is always welcome at SQUARE, and we wish him all the best in his future endeavors!
