In this week's episode, Marian Duris (Foreign Policy Consultant to MEP - European Parliament) and I finish our conversation on the unprecedented challenges from all directions faced by the European Union this year. We discuss the reaction of the "V4" nations to the EU's heavy-handed policy on absorbing MENA migrants, Brussels' bullying, the federal/confederal debate, global terrorism trends flowing into Europe, the concept of 'European-ness', "no-go" areas in London + Paris. Lastly, we discuss whether the EU faces an existential threat from sectors in society who do not share a European Umwelt. Join us for a deep dive into the Union's boiling point.
