Europe votes
The European elections on June 6-9 delivered a more fractured European Parliament and complicated the 27-member bloc’s ability to find centrist compromises on governing the EU.
FT journalists and expert guest gathered for a subscriber webinar on 12 June to assess the implications of the results for Europe and the world. They discussed:
How will the expected poor performance of ruling parties in the bloc’s leading powers France and Germany affect their standing at home and abroad?
How will the new parliament affect EU policy on migration, the environment, China trade policy and the war in Ukraine?
Will a resurgent far right be able to work together to form a powerful bloc within the EU?
Meeting on the side-lines of the G7 summit on June 13, what decisions will the EU’s most powerful leaders take about the top jobs at the European Commission, the EU executive whose president Ursula von der Leyen is vying for a second term?
