Our new European Green Deal Risk Radar analyses the state of play of the 13 most important EU laws of the European Green Deal and identify – in 13 scorecards – the potential risks these EU laws face in view of being delayed, undermined or even withdrawn. We also show the benefits that these EU laws offer and provide a timeline highlighting when potential risks and windows of opportunity are likely to emerge.

Rebuilding credibility in EU enlargement policy

Policy paper
The European Union has many candidates for membership. It is currently conducting negotiations with Albania, North Macedonia, Ukraine, Moldova and Bosnia and Herzegovina. However, the accession processes are complicated. The current policy paper on the reform debate analyses the arguments for and against a rapid enlargement of the EU and provides recommendations for policy-makers.

Shaping a future-fit Common Agricultural Policy

Policy paper
For more than half a century, the European Union's agricultural policy has focussed primarily on increasing agricultural productivity and the cost-effective production of food. This policy paper provides recommendations for action that are largely possible without amending the EU treaties.

Strengthening the EU's global capacity to act

Policy Paper
The EU's reactions to the current challenges in the areas of security and trade policy highlight that a resolute and coherent common European foreign policy depends on the political will of Member States and their willingness to overcome their differences. The aim must be for Europeans to jointly consider their international commitment across different policy areas and act accordingly in a strategic manner. But the institutional reforms of the past have not provided the necessary push forward. In this sense, the recommendations for action in this paper are to be understood primarily as a call to Member States to make better use of the existing scope for action within the EU treaties.
