  • Inside Spain 55 William Chislett Foreign Policy
    Inside Spain 55 William Chislett Foreign Policy Zapatero Meets Obama, Agrees to Send More Soldiers to Afghanistan Spain’s Prime Minister, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, met President Barack Obama in Prague, ending the five-year stand-off between the White House and the head of the Spanish government caused by Zapatero’s decision to withdraw Spain’s peacekeeping troops from Iraq sent by his predecessor, José María Aznar. Obama, in striking contrast to George W Bush and despite the friction caused by Spain’s pull-out of troops from Kosovo (see below), said he was ‘happy’ to call Rodríguez Zapatero his ‘friend. As if to emphasise the point, Obama put his arm on Zapatero’s shoulder. The bilateral meeting, held during Obama’s encounter in the Czech capital with EU-27 leaders, was the first time Zapatero had been officially received by a US president since he first took office in 2004. Earlier, at the Nato summit meeting in Strasbourg with Obama, Rodríguez Zapatero agreed to send 450 more soldiers to Afghanistan to help guarantee security during the country’s presidential elections in August. Spain will also send 40 paramilitary civil guards to help train the police force. The 450 troops will return once their mission is concluded and will not stay on and join the 778 Spanish troops already in Afghanistan. Zapatero is reluctant to increase Spain’s military presence on a permanent basis or change the tight rules of engagement under which Spanish troops operate. Rodríguez Zapatero and Obama also met in Turkey, the first Muslim country the US President decided to visit as part of his policy of reaching out to the Islamic world.

  • Managing Economic and Monetary Union by Pedro Solbes, Member of the European Commission
    Monthly newsletter ISSN 102 1-23S3 m% Managing economic and monetary union by Pedro Solbes, Member of the European Commission The introduction of the euro on 1 January 1999 has been a major achievement. Meticulous preparation ensured a very smooth changeover to the new single currency and the sound economic policy framework established in the run-up to EMU is beginning to yield results. Safeguarding macroeconomic stability The year 1999 was not only characterised by the launch of the euro but was also the first test of EMU's institutional set-up, and the test was positive. EMU establishes a framework for sound economic policies which comprises an independent monetary policy devoted primarily to price stability, disciplined fiscal policies governed by mutually agreed rules and a set of procedures to enhance structural reform. The European Central Bank (ECB) has quickly established its anti-inflationary credibility. This is reflected in a historically low inflation rate and continued moderate inflation expectations in the euro area. The second test for macroeconomic management now lies ahead. The euro-area Member States have a special responsibility to support monetary policy by adhering to a strict budgetary discipline and implementing necessary structural reforms. Against the background of an increasingly robust upswing, the EMU framework must bring the economy onto a sustained, high-growth path whilst preserving price stability. Member State governments have maintained - and in most cases enhanced - budgetary discipline despite the economic slowdown in 1999. In sum, the policy-mix has been adjusted appropriately. Last year, the Stability and Growth Pact showed that it can place an upper ceiling on deficits during downturns.

  • The New European Commission
    CENTRE FOR EUROPEAN REFORM briefing note BARROSO’S GALACTICOS? THE NEW EUROPEAN COMMISSION By Alasdair Murray José Manuel Durão Barroso unveiled his new Commission on August 12th – confirming his burgeoning reputation as a deft political tactician. Barroso has crafted a carefully balanced team, which emphasises his own independence as incoming Commission president. The line-up appears to have satisfied the desire of the larger member-states for substantial Commission posts, with the key exception of France. At the same time, Barroso has ensured that commissioners from smaller countries will take on a fair share of important portfolios, such as external relations, competition policy, the budget and the internal market. The new president has also indicated that he intends to adopt a more hands-on approach to managing the Commission than his predecessors, Romano Prodi and Jacques Santer. Barroso will personally chair two key groups of commissioners dealing with economic reform and external relations. The new president is also reversing Prodi’s decision to base commissioners in their individual departments – the directorates-general (DGs) – rather than centrally, in an effort to improve the co-ordination of Commission policies. A LIBERAL-MINDED ECONOMIC AXIS? Barroso’s main headache in the allocation of portfolios was how to divide up the much-coveted economics posts, such as the internal market and competition policy. France and Germany had made plain that they wanted ‘their’ commissioners, Jacques Barrot and Günter Verheugen, to get senior jobs. The German government, in particular, lobbied strongly for the creation of a ‘super’ commissioner, to oversee all economic policy-making including competition and state aid cases.
