Statement on the Future Engagement of the EU in Healthcare We, The Statement on the future engagement of the EU in healthcare We, the undersigned Members of the European Parliament, are deeply concerned about the prospect of reducing EU engagement in the area of healthcare outlined by some of the scenarios in the “White Paper on the Future of Europe”. European integration has brought considerable benefits for the health of Europeans. This cooperation must be sustained to ensure that citizens across the EU enjoy equality of opportunity to receive quality health care and services in their country. Patients should not pay the cost of non-Europe in healthcare! We believe that Europe is about more than a common market and currency. Strengthening the economic foundations of the European project is undoubtedly crucial, but it remains merely a means of achieving prosperity in the Union. Health is a precondition for prosperity and the ambitious European agenda for growth and jobs cannot be achieved without healthy European citizens. European health systems are struggling to respond to the pressing challenges of ageing populations, strained health budgets and rising levels of health inequalities. These challenges transcend national borders and call for common European solutions. Ignoring them would not only be economically inefficient, but also politically dangerous. Wide disparities in health undermine social cohesion and foster political discontent, thus hindering cooperation and the process of European integration. In order to secure the future of the European Union we need to counter populist rhetoric and deliver on the expectations of European citizens. Recent Eurobarometer surveys have consistently shown that around 70% of Europeans wish to see more EU engagement in the area of health. We call for continued European Union action in the field of health and enhanced cooperation between EU Member States as a prerequisite for the sustainable development of our Union.

  • Mr Josep Borrell Vice-President of the European Commission High Representative of the Union for the CFSP Rue De La Loi 170 1000 Brussels
    Mr Josep Borrell Vice-President of the European Commission High Representative of the Union for the CFSP Rue de la Loi 170 1000 Brussels Brussels, 16th April 2021 Dear Mr. High Representative; Mr Vice-President of the Commission: A delegation from the illegitimate National Assembly of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, which emerged from the electoral farce organised on 6th December 2020 by the regime of Nicolás Maduro, recently paid a visit to Brussels and was officially received by the institution you lead. According to a statement you made on behalf of the European Union on 6th December, this spurious process took place in the absence of electoral conditions that could have guaranteed its credibility, without any respect for political pluralism, and in an atmosphere of persecution and disqualification of democratic leaders whose legitimate rights were curtailed. Your statement concludes that such circumstances could not consider this process credible, inclusive, and transparent and therefore the results did not represent the will of the Venezuelan people. That initial statement was confirmed on 6 January of this year by a new declaration, in similar terms to those expressed on 6 December, and by the conclusions of the Foreign Affairs Council of 25 January. These reiterated the lack of recognition of the electoral process and regretted the behaviour of the authorities of the Maduro regime, whose actions are preventing a solution to the serious crisis in Venezuela. We were surprised and gravely concerned to learn that on 14th April, at your request, senior officials of the European External Action Service received the aforementioned delegation, comprising Iris Varela, Pedro Carreño and Desirée Santos Amaral, at the EEAS headquarters.

  • Power Ranking of Meps in the Agricultural Committee of the European Parliament
    Who has the critical vote? Power ranking of MEPs in the Agricultural Committee of the European Parliament A. Kovacs¹; I. Fertő²; L. Kóczy²; B. Sziklai²; A.A. Nás² 1: Tec de Monterrey, Department of International Business, Mexico, 2: Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Institute of Economics, Hungary Corresponding author email: [email protected] Abstract: We analyze the voting power of the members of the agricultural committee of the European Parliament using a spatial Banzhaf power index. Using a novel dataset of roll-call votes in the current EP-term, we identify critical members whose votes are necessary to form winning coalitions. We found that committee members with formal positions, EP group coordinators as well as German, French, Italian and British members are powerful actors. Nevertheless, rapporteurs are not necessarily influential. We also concluded that members with moderate ideological position but from Member States with extreme agricultural importance are the most powerful ones.
