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.

Trump, 2019 Remarks Prior to a Meeting With President Emmanuel Macron of France and an Exchange With Reporters in Caen, France June 6, 2019 [President Macron began his remarks in French, and no translation was provided.] President Macron. I will say a few words in English, and I will repeat them exactly what I say. And I wanted first to thank you, President Donald Trump, for your presence here in this place. And thanks to your country, your nation, and your veterans. This morning we paid this tribute to their courage. And I think it was a great moment to celebrate and celebrate these people.

And this is why I'm always extremely happy to discuss with you in Washington, in Paris, or everywhere, in Caen today, is because we work very closely together. Our soldiers work very closely together—— President Trump. It's true, it's true. President Macron. ——in Sahel, in Iraq, in Syria. Each time freedom and democracy is at stake, we work closely together, and we will follow up. So thanks for this friendship. President Trump. Thank you very much. President Macron.

  • France's Foreign and Security Policy Under President Macron. the Consequences for Franco-German Cooperation
    SWP Research Paper Ronja Kempin (ed.) France’s Foreign and Security Policy under President Macron The Consequences for Franco-German Cooperation Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik German Institute for International and Security Affairs SWP Research Paper 4 May 2021, Berlin Abstract ∎ French President Emmanuel Macron has announced his goal of revitalis- ing Franco-German relations and founding a “new partnership” between Paris and Berlin. However, in foreign and security policy, and in certain areas of his Europe policy, this aspiration has rarely been fulfilled. ∎ The main reasons are structural changes in international relations, which the French and German sides have reacted to differently. Paris is looking for new ways of preserving its autonomy in defence policy and of filling the strategic vacuum that has been created by the waning US interest in Europe and its periphery. Berlin emphasises the development of NATO and the EU as fundamental organisations for German foreign policy. ∎ Reconciling bilateral interests is also complicated by national solo efforts, indifference, and inadequate exchange of experience. ∎ The first precondition for intensifying bilateral cooperation is for Paris and Berlin to conduct a comprehensive review of the international con- flict situation in their existing cooperation formats as regards foreign and security policy. The two governments need to discuss openly to what extent their national interests are concerned, and then determine con- crete measures. ∎ Second, they must refrain from national solo efforts and be sensitive to the other’s pressure points in foreign, security and Europe policy. The Franco-German Parliamentary Assembly needs to urge the executive of both countries to fulfil the Élysée Treaty and the Aachen Treaty.

  • Speech at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies Bruno Le Maire, Minister for Economy, Finances And
    Speech at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies Bruno Le Maire, Minister for Economy, Finances and Recovery Geneva 1 April 2021 Press: Cabinet of Bruno Le Maire +33 1 53 18 41 13 Ladies and gentlemen, Much has been said about the consequences of Covid and the post-crisis world. I will therefore share thoughts in all humility. One area to which the precautionary principle should definitely apply is politicians’ speeches. Politicians often predict things that don’t actually happen while they unwittingly trigger events that they had not foreseen. This is why I will limit myself to sharing with you one thought, four convictions and one wish that I hope won’t be wishful thinking. My thoughts go out to the families who have been affected by the pandemic and who are grieving for a loved one. My thoughts go out to those who are in pain. They extend to caregivers, nurses, hospital staff, all those remarkable men and women who are close to burn out, yet who still devote themselves to us. In France, as everywhere else in Europe, we have made a clear choice: health takes precedence over the economy. Health comes first and will always come first. It’s about self-respect. It’s about dignity. It is reflected in the decisions the French President Emmanuel Macron took yesterday. I also want to share four convictions. My first conviction is that we’ve learned the lessons from previous crises. 2/13 Check against delivery In Europe, we did not repeat the past mistakes of 1929 and 2008.

  • Where Now for Multispeed Europe?
    Centro de Estudios y Documentación InternacionalesCentro de Barcelona E-ISSN 2014-0843 B-8438-2012 D.L.: opinión JUNCKER’S STATE OF THE UNION: 497 Where now for multispeed SEPTEMBER Europe? 2017 Pol Morillas, Research Fellow CIDOB *This article was previously published in LSE Europp ean-Claude Juncker was harshly criticised when he presented his White Pa- per on the future of Europe earlier this year. At that time, he intended to J throw the ball back to member states to decide on the path of integration, after several backlashes against his initiatives to move integration forward. Side- lining the European Commission and its proposals to tackle the euro and refugee crises, member states have reinforced the dynamics of an intergovernmental Un- ion. In Juncker’s mind, it was about time that member states worked to avoid the risk of disintegration (scenario 2 of the White Paper), conscious that the appetite for a federal Union was low after Brexit (scenario 5). The criticism came from those who argued that, if Juncker’s Commission was the “most political”, presenting disintegration as a plausible scenario was a danger- ous move. Instead, Juncker should have proposed a way forward, making full use of the Commission’s right of initiative and not opened a debate on the future of Europe, as think tanks tend to do. Between then and his annual ‘State of the Union’ speech, which he delivered on 13 September, a constellation of forces has gathered behind multispeed Europe (scenario 3). Emmanuel Macron’s election in France and the slow but steady ac- ceptance of the formula by Angela Merkel has increased the prospects of reform in this direction.
