このコンテンツについて

The European Project, as singular as it is, not only in the world today but also in the entire history of mankind, always lacks a lot. One thing always troubled me especially. Our discourse is first and foremost a national one. The Portuguese, the poles, the Germans, the Dutch and on and on discuss among them and about themselves in relation to Brussels. But we are kidding ourselves if we say would know much about each other and what is going on. It is like living in one house as family and each room is mainly talking to themselves and if nothing serious happens in the room next to us, we barely take notice. If Europe is our future, that is not a great basis. So let’s see what is actually happing in Europe. Maybe we will learn again that our hopes and problems are the same, our destiny a shared one. Europeans deserve European news without the bias of a vantage point from a particular country or political view.

We publish every day a news overview of domestic and economic topics relevant in the public discuss in last 7 days. We cluster countries together, that each day around four countries are packed together in one episode. On Sundays, we’ll try to publish a weekly wrap-up.

The European Project is unique but suffers from a nationalistic discourse. We discuss internally, but lack knowledge of other European countries, which is problematic for a shared future. This podcast offers daily European news, grouping four countries per episode, with a weekly wrap-up on Sundays, aiming to provide unbiased information and foster understanding.

    Europe Weekly - Wrap-Up Week 47

    The sources provide a comprehensive overview of recent political and economic developments across various European Union member states, structured as segments from a program called "Europe Weekly." Key national challenges are highlighted, including the constitutional and political disputes over Bulgaria's euro adoption and foreign influence investigations, Slovenia's public procurement reforms, and Romania's new anti-corruption packagealongside its 2026 budget approval. Additionally, the texts detail political instability and power struggles in countries like Croatia, Spain (due to a secessionist party's withdrawal), and the Netherlands (amid coalition formation crises), and examine issues of media freedom and government influence in Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia. Economic concerns such as inflation, fiscal sustainability, and pension reforms are recurrent themes across Austria, Germany, Italy, and Greece, underscoring the complex governance and financial tightropes these nations are walking within the EU framework.
