Our panelists will present and discuss different proposal, ranging from ESI’s proposal to the “Staged Accession” proposal, developed by a group of think tankers, to the most recent mentioning of the French President Emmanuel Macron of a so-called “European Political Community”. What is in there, how feasible are these models, how do the different models relate to each other, and who would support/oppose them and why are some of the questions we will focus on in this debate.

The discussion will take place on Monday, July 4th, 2022 from 15:00 to 16:15
