Capitals can’t recall their own commissioners under EU rules

Ces dernières années, il a souvent été avancé que l’avion militaire de transport A400M «Atlas» suscitait l’intérêt des forces aériennes étrangères, alors que la pérennité de sa ligne d’assemblage, à Séville, n’était pas assurée. Lors d’une audition au Sénat, en février dernier, le Délégué général pour l’armement [DGA], Patrick Pailloux l’a encore dit. «Nous faisons...

CONTRE-POINT - Comme souvent, le premier ministre avance sur une ligne de crête. Il cherche à jouer la carte du dialogue sans renoncer aux réformes. Du moins dans son intention.

Hungarian politics, a possible Slovak veto and EU bureaucracy mean unlocking cash could take weeks

L’an passé, avec l’objectif de porter ses dépenses militaires à 5,4 % du PIB, l’Estonie a adopté un plan de financement sur quatre ans afin d’allouer 2,8 milliards d’euros supplémentaires à ses forces armées. Pour autant, aussi important soit-il, cet effort ne permet pas à ces dernières d’acquérir les capacités qui leur font défaut ou...

US imperial policy towards Latin America and the Caribbean is characterised by a com­bination of dominance ambitions and exclusivity claims. Through drastic coercive measures, Washington is forcing an economic transformation in Venezuela without paving the way for a political transition. At the same time, it is imposing a fuel block­ade on Cuba and threatening to take over that country. Above all, Germany and the EU should support civil society in Venezuela and Cuba. Furthermore, they should un­equivocally acknowledge the already existing violations of international law and adopt a firm stance against the normalisation of violence and disregard for human rights.

The reintegration of Ukrainian war veterans into civilian life presents both a significant challenge and an opportunity for Ukraine’s economic reconstruction. Veterans are facing various difficulties depending on factors such as their educational background, military role, access to healthcare (including psychological assistance), gender and access to housing, especially for those from territories currently occupied by Russia.

Ukraine recently adopted its veterans policy strategy for 2030, aiming to restore the human capital and wellbeing of veterans and their families. It also seeks to express respect and gratitude towards veterans, commemorate fallen soldiers and define the role of veterans in ensuring Ukraine’s security and defence capabilities.

The European Commission’s Ukraine 2025 enlargement report addresses the situation of veterans in several sections, assessing reforms and providing recommendations for progress on the path to EU membership. These sections concern employment and the rights of people with disabilities.

Implementing the veterans policy for 2030 and various recommendations from the European Commission will require further resources to build a lasting support system for veterans. This issue is expected to be discussed during the Council of the European Union meeting on 21 April 2026.
