    European Movement International 04/12/2020, 09:17 Valéry Giscard d'Estaing: Mourning a European giant Following the passing of former French President Valéry Giscard d’Estaing, former president of the European Movement International and passionate defender of the European project, we share perspectives on his life from France, Belgium, Germany and Malta. European Headlines is a weekly newsletter from the European Movement International highlighting media perspectives from across Europe. Click here to subscribe. Tweet about this Remembering VGE Le Monde provides a brief biography of the former French president, who passed away on Wednesday as a result of a Covid-19 infection. At the age of 36, Giscard was appointed Minister of Finance and Economic Affairs under Georges Pompidou. In 1974, he ran in the 1974 presidential elections, defeating Jacques Chaban-Delmas and François Mitterrand and thus becoming the youngest President of the Republic since 1848. During the campaign, he established himself as a modern, dynamic politician, embodying renewal in the face of his rivals. His “advanced liberal society” entailed new laws such as the decriminalisation of abortion and the right of referral to the Constitutional Council. His international policies are marked by his strengthening of European unity. Together with German Chancellor, Helmut Schmidt, Giscard influenced the creation of the European Council in December 1974. Following the 1989 European elections, Giscard entered the European Parliament. During his years in Brussels, he served as President of the European Movement International until 1997. On May 29, 2003, he received the ‘Charlemagne Prize’ for having "advanced the unification process" in Europe.

  • Statement by Margrethe Vestager to Committee on the Judiciary, Subcommittee on Antitrust, Commercial
    COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY SUBCOMMITTEE ON ANTITRUST, COMMERCIAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE LAW UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STATEMENT BY MARGRETHE VESTAGER EXECUTIVE VICE-PRESIDENT, EUROPEAN COMMISSION Introduction Chairman Cicilline, Ranking Member Sensenbrenner, members of the subcommittee, thank you for accepting this written statement for submission with regard to the subcommittee’s investigation into competition in the digital economy and the role of digital platforms. I provided my previous submission to this subcommittee in my capacity as the European Union’s Commissioner for Competition. Following the entry into office of the new European Commission on 1 December 2019, in addition to the portfolio of Commissioner for Competition which I have retained, in my capacity as Executive Vice-President of the Commission for a Europe fit for the Digital Age, I also have the broader policy responsibility of coordinating the Commission’s work in addressing the varied challenges arising from today’s digital economy, and ensuring that the digital world works better for European citizens. Although only 9 months have passed since my previous submission, policy reflections on the issues and challenges raised by digital platforms have intensified around the world, and so it is a very timely moment for me to be able to address you again, and inform you of the latest developments and the nature of our own reflections, both as regards the application of competition policy itself, as well as policy initiatives that are complementary to competition policy. I have followed closely the hearings conducted by the subcommittee over the last year, and I am comforted to see that the issues you are looking at overlap to a large extent with what we are examining and seeking to address on this side of the Atlantic.

  • Dear President, Dear Ursula, We Welcome the Letter of 1 March That
    March 8, 2021 Dear President, dear Ursula, We welcome the letter of 1 March that you received from Chancellor Merkel and PM Frederiksen, PM Kallas and PM Marin. We share many of the ideas outlined in the letter. Indeed, there are some points that we find are of particular importance as we work to progress the digital agenda for the EU. We certainly agree that our agenda must be founded on a good mix of self-determination and openness. Our approach to digital sovereignty must be geared towards growing digital leadership by preparing for smart and selective action to ensure capacity where called for, while preserving open markets and strengthening global cooperation and the external trade dimension. Digital innovation benefits from partnerships among sectors, promoting public and private cooperation. Translating excellence in research and innovation into commercial successes is crucial to creating global leadership. The Single Market remains key to our prosperity and to the productivity and competitiveness of European companies, and our regulatory framework needs to be made fit for the digital age. We need a Digital Single Market for innovation, to eliminate barriers to cross-border online services, and to ensure free data flows. Attention must be paid to the external dimension where we should continue to work closely with our allies around the world and where in our interest, develop new partnerships. We need to make sure that the EU can be a leader of a responsible digital transformation. Trust and innovation are two sides of the same coin. Europe’s competitiveness should be built on efficient, trustworthy, transparent, safe and responsible use of data in accordance with our shared values.

  • The Italian Candidate: the Appointment of Mario Draghi to the Presidency of the ECB
    6 The ITalIan CandIdaTe: The appoInTmenT of marIo draghI To The presIdenCy of The eCB Kenneth Dyson and Lucia Quaglia After prolonged negotiations, on 24 June 2011, the governor of the Bank of Italy, Mario Draghi, was appointed president of the European Central Bank (ECB) as successor to Jean-Claude Trichet. His mandate runs from 1 November 2011 to 31 October 2019. Draghi’s appointment was consistent with a long-standing practice of Italian politicians and officials seeking to engage with the process of European integration by ensuring that they were “sitting at the European top table.” In the context of the euro area, sitting at the top table for Italy was initially about gaining euro entry as a founding member state in 1999 and, subsequently, about having strong Italian representation in the gov- erning structures of the euro area, particularly the ECB.1 Once the sovereign debt crisis became contagious in 2010–2011, it meant ensur- ing that financial markets drew a clear distinction between Italy and periphery member states such as Greece and Portugal that suffered from sovereign debt distress. However, retaining a seat at the European high table did not prove easy. First, Italy qualified late for euro entry, with little safety margin and the help of some last-minute and somewhat controversial fiscal measures and in the face of much German skepticism. Second, the cir- cumstances surrounding the resignation in 2005 of the Bank of Italy’s governor, Antonio Fazio, damaged Italy’s reputation. Third, by the Italian Politics: From Berlusconi to Monti 27 (2012): 155–171 © Berghahn Books doi:10.3167/ip.2012.270109 156 Kenneth Dyson and Lucia Quaglia summer of 2011, Silvio Berlusconi’s government was battling against a loss of financial market credibility.

Tuesday 7 September: • United States: No set date, but it is anticipated that this week the White House could send a list of ‘anomalies’ to the House and Senate Appropriations panels that it wants funded outside of any already-funded programmes as part of a Continuing Resolution. As of 7 September, there will be 23 days until the federal government runs out of funds, with an agreement of some sort required to avoid a shut-down. While the Democrats control the White House and both chambers of Congress, their demand of a debt-ceiling increase could make the passage of a deal more difficult, with Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) voicing Republican opposition.

  • Mario Draghi: Welcome Remarks
    Mario Draghi: Welcome remarks - 8th ECB conference on central, eastern and south-eastern European countries Welcome remarks by Mr Mario Draghi, President of the European Central Bank, at the 8th ECB conference on central, eastern and south-eastern European countries, Frankfurt am Main, 12 June 2019. * * * Dear guests and colleagues, It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the eighth ECB conference on central, eastern and south-eastern European (CESEE) countries. There are many differences between the 18 economies in the CESEE region1, but one thing they have in common is that they have all experienced real economic convergence towards the EU average since the 1990s. Over the last two decades, in particular, real GDP per capita growth has averaged 3.8% in the region, compared with 1.4% in the European Union (EU) as a whole. But there has been a clear difference in the pace of convergence.2 Countries that have joined the EU, and which are hereafter referred to as the central and eastern European (CEE) economies,3 reached GDP per capita levels of 70% of the EU average. Within this group, the countries that have joined the euro area have grown even faster, reaching almost 80% of the EU average. In contrast, catching up has been markedly slower in the economies outside the EU, with income levels below 40%4 of the EU28 average.5 EU and euro area membership acted as a catalyst for convergence, creating the institutional and economic conditions for CEE economies to adopt highly effective growth strategies. Their faster convergence shows that, with high-quality institutions in place, the EU Single Market can be a powerful engine of growth, allowing not only the poorer countries to catch up, but also the richer countries to benefit from a larger market and opportunities to increase production efficiency.6 However, in order to maintain convergence and reap lasting benefits from the Single Market and euro area membership, efforts to ensure institutional quality and good governance have become all the more important given the headwinds facing CEE economies.

  • Social Affairs Forum News January 2015
    SOCIAL AFFAIRS FORUM NEWS JANUARY 2015 SECRETARIAT UPDATES Our next Social Affairs Forum and study visit at CSV UK will take place on 9 and 10 March 2015 in London. Please register here: http://solidar.org/spip.php?page=agenda&date=2015-03- 09 The agenda will follow in due time. Advisory group on asylum, migration and integration SOLIDAR constituted a transversal advisory group on asylum, migration and integration coordinated by our Italian member ARCI with the support of the Secretariat. The political reason for creating such a taskforce is that - despite the fact that migration is currently a very relevant political, social and cultural matter - a common approach has not emerged. On the contrary, migration more and more became a divisive question between different political and cultural visions on the future. The aim of the advisory group is to work together on a common approach on the issues of asylum, migration and integration by providing a platform to better understand the challenges that civil society organisations are facing at local level as well as to share knowledge about practices that SOLIDAR members are carrying out. A brainstorming meeting will take place on 10 February from 10:00 to 13:00 at SOLIDAR Offices. The aim of the brainstorming is to make a first exchange with members on the priorities, objectives and expectations about the work of this advisory group in 2015. Please also note that the brainstorming meeting will be followed by the SOLIDAR-CGIL round table Rights-based approach to EU migration policies: the role of the Trade Union Network on Mediterranean and Sub-Saharan Migrants that will take place on 10 February from 15:00 to 17:30.
