Opinion: Biggest flaw in EU democracy is lack of political debate The European elections are just around the corner. Democracy in the EU has shortcomings, but the EU has mostly lacked political debate in recent decades. It is good that this is changing. In June, more than 400 million Europeans will have to go to the polls again for ... yes, what exactly? If you do not know what European elections are for, it is not up to you. For a long time, a vote in European elections was mainly a vote for the EU. That tide is turning, and that is a good thing.

Aris Dimitrakopoulos and I spoke to fellow Zoomers about the upcoming European elections. “The decisions will be made and everyone else will go to vote; if you don’t go, don’t think that makes you cool,” said Anastasia Giannarou, a passionate advocate for youth engagement in politics. The EU may feel like a far-away concept to some, but the reality is that its decisions affect us all. Sunday's elections are critical. Firstly, because the European Parliament is the only directly elected body of the EU, and secondly, because the Union's basic values may be endangered due to the far right and its increased influence across the bloc. Voting is your strongest means to inflict change within the system. Don't waste it. Go vote. Read the full article in the link below: https://lnkd.in/dCE-QbW8

The 2050 net zero ambition set by the EU is increasingly looking unrealistic, as early EU election polls indicate the left-wing parties will lose their collective majority, amid a surge in support for right-wing factions.
