Practical information
The 2024 European elections could mark a turning point in EU politics. Eurosceptic parties and right-wing forces are expected to make sizable gains on this occasion. Their electoral results could fundamentally affect the orientation of the European Parliament, an institution traditionally advocating European solutions to common challenges, and even tip the current balance of power in EU policymaking.
What implications will the European elections have in EU politics in general and for France, Austria and Central and Eastern European countries in particular? What implications will they have in key policy areas, be it the green transformation, enlargement, the defense and reconstruction of Ukraine, transatlantic relations, asylum and migration policy reforms, etc.?

Faced with a profoundly disrupted strategic and economic environment, Franco-German cooperation is more than ever the central pillar of Europe's future. The war in Ukraine, energy and technological dependence, and uncertainty about the strength of the transatlantic ties require urgent deepening of European sovereignty, both in terms of defence and economic and industrial competitiveness.
