European Citizens' Initiative: 'End the cage age' Type de publicationEn bref Date 02-06-2021 Auteur ROJEK Beata Domaine politique Agriculture et développement rural Mot-clé bien-être des animaux | débat parlementaire | initiative citoyenne européenne | ordre du jour | Parlement européen | rapport | résolution PE | volaille pondeuse Résumé Throughout the EU, millions of animals are reared in cages, in conditions that seriously harm their welfare. A European Citizens' Initiative, 'End the Cage Age', calls on the European Commission to end the practice of keeping animals in cages and to propose legislation to prohibit their use. In response to this initiative, the European Parliament is expected to hold a debate on the subject and vote a resolution during its June I plenary session.

This growing reliance on digital technologies, while beneficial, has also increased the risk of cyber-attacks, and key institutions at EU and national level have recently been targeted by cyber-attacks. During the June I plenary session, Members of the European Parliament will debate with the Council and the Commission on recent cyber-attacks in the EU, and discuss the European Union's cybersecurity strategy for the digital decade.

Vice-President of the Commission/High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borell made statements on escalating tensions in Varosha, and on the fight against impunity for crimes committed against journalists around the world, followed by a debate with Members. Members also voted, inter alia, on representative actions for the protection of the collective interests of consumers, on customs duties on certain products, on tariff quotas with Northern Ireland, as well as on a number of own-initiative reports, including on industrial policy.

Parliament also discussed the conclusions of the special European Council meeting of 1 2 October and the preparations for the next regular European Council meeting, on 15 16 October 2020.

En bref EN Plenary round-up – Brussels, September 2020 Type de publication En bref Date 18-09-2020 Auteur FERGUSON CLARE | SOCHACKA KATARZYNA Domaine politique Affaires étrangères | Coronavirus | Droit démocratique, institutionnel et parlementaire de l''Union | Développement et aide humanitaire | Environnement Mot-clé Chine | débat parlementaire | maladie à coronavirus | minorité sexuelle | Parlement européen | politique étrangère et de sécurité commune | pollution par les navires | relation interinstitutionnelle (UE) | ressources propres | transport ferroviaire | épidémie | État de droit Résumé The September 2020 plenary session was the sixth conducted with Members participating remotely, using the alternative voting procedure put in place in March by Parliament's Bureau, although a majority were again present in Brussels. As well as the Commission President's traditional State of the Union address, Parliament held a joint debate on the risk of breach of the rule of law and LGBTI-free zones in Poland.

En bref EN The State of the Union debate in the European Parliament, 2020 Type de publicationBriefing Date 11-09-2020 Auteur MAŃKO Rafał Domaine politique Droit démocratique, institutionnel et parlementaire de l''Union Mot-clé cadre financier pluriannuel | discours | débat parlementaire | fonctionnement institutionnel | Parlement européen | président de la Commission Résumé The State of the Union address of 2020 will be delivered at a time when the coronavirus pandemic continues to create challenges for the European Union and its Member States. At the same time, the the next multiannual financial framework (MFF), the EU's long-term budget, is yet to be agreed. Unresolved challenges also include ensuring respect for EU values (Article 2 TEU) in the Member States, addressing the threat of climate change, and ensuring Europe is fit for the digital age. The tradition of EU State of the Union addresses, delivered by the President of the European Commission before the European Parliament, dates back to 2010. The address takes stock of the achievements of the past year and presents the priorities for the year ahead. The State of the Union speech constitutes an important instrument for the European Commission's ex-ante accountability vis-à-vis Parliament. It is also aimed at rendering the definition of priorities at EU level more transparent, and at communicating those priorities to citizens. It resembles similar speeches in national democracies. The United States of America, for instance, has a long-standing tradition of presidential State of the Union addresses, in which the President speaks in the Capitol to a joint session of Congress, thus fulfilling his constitutional obligation. By contrast to the US Constitution, the EU Treaties do not prescribe the State of the Union address, which was instigated with the 2010 Framework Agreement between Parliament and the Commission. Former Commission Presidents José Manuel Barroso (2010 to 2013, marked mainly by the economic and financial crisis) and President Jean Claude Juncker each gave four State of the Union speeches. In his 2015 address, Jean Claude Juncker presented new proposals on migration, external action, and economic and fiscal policy. In 2016, he announced new initiatives to invest in Europe's young people, jobseekers and start-ups, to expand public access to wifi, and make fairer copyright laws. In 2017, he proposed a roadmap for a more united, stronger and more democratic union. In his final speech in 2018, he called for a more sovereign Europe that allows its nations to be global players, setting out proposals on migration, cybersecurity and foreign policy. This briefing further updates an earlier one, from September 2016, originally written by Eva-Maria Poptcheva. Briefing EN 16-12-2021 Source : © Union européenne, 2021 - PE 3

This April II session is the last plenary session at which one of the Heads of State or Government will set out their vision of the future path that Europe should follow. This initiative has been meant to provide the occasion to reflect deeply on how to shape the future of the EU and its institutions, as a concrete contribution to the Sibiu Summit taking place on 9 May 2019. The series of debates started with the invitation of the President of the European Parliament, Antonio Tajani, who announced at the European Council in October 2017 his intention to host debates during plenary sessions, as a democratic and open forum in which Heads of State or Government would be invited to express their vision of the future. Originally intended to run for the whole of 2018, the debates, which have to date featured the leaders of 19 Member States, continued into 2019, up to the 2019 European elections. This is the fourth edition of a Briefing designed to provide an overview of the Future of Europe debates. As usual it takes stock of the views of the (four) most recent participating leaders (Juha Sipilä, Giuseppe Conte, Peter Pellegrini, Stefan Löfven) on a number of key policy areas such as economic and monetary union (EMU), the EU's social dimension, migration policy, security and defence, the next multiannual financial framework (MFF), trade and climate change.

The 'Future of Europe' debates, an initiative of the European Parliament, aim to make a tangible contribution to the broader discussion on how to reform EU policies and institutions. The series of debates started with the invitation of the President of the European Parliament, Antonio Tajani, who announced at the European Council in October 2017 the intention to host debates during plenary sessions, as a democratic and open forum in which Heads of State or Government would be invited to express their vision of the future. Originally intended to run for the whole of 2018, the debates, which have to date featured the leaders of 15 Member States, will now run into 2019, approaching the 2019 European elections. This is the third edition of a briefing designed to provide an overview of the Future of Europe debates. As usual, it takes stock of the views of the (five) most recent participating leaders (Iohannis, Merkel, Rasmussen, Anastasiades and Sánchez) on a number of key policy areas such as economic and monetary union (EMU), the EU’s social dimension, migration policy, security and defence, the next multiannual financial framework (MFF), trade and climate change.

Members debated and adopted reports on five Western Balkan countries, as well as a report on the way forward for the World Trade Organization (WTO). A number of legislative reports were voted without debate, including on trade in goods that could be used for capital punishment, torture or other cruel treatment or punishment, the temporary reintroduction of border controls at the internal borders, and common rules for the operation of air services. En bref EN The 2018 State of the Union debate in the European Parliament Type de publicationBriefing Date 07-09-2018 Auteur DOBREVA Alina Domaine politique Droit démocratique, institutionnel et parlementaire de l''Union Mot-clé accord interinstitutionnel (UE) | cadre financier pluriannuel | discours | débat parlementaire | Parlement européen | président de la Commission | situation de l'Union européenne Résumé European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker’s State of the Union address to the European Parliament, and the subsequent debate, on 12 September 2018 is to be the last one during the current mandate. It comes in the context of the ongoing reflection on the future path of the European Union, especially in view of the European elections next May. The debate will therefore be an occasion to reflect on the legacy and achievements of this Commission, to present the priorities until the end of the mandate and to follow up on the ongoing debate on the future path of the European Union of 27. President Juncker’s speech is expected to be accompanied by a set of concrete initiatives and proposals with the aim to deliver positive results for citizens by the time of the Sibiu summit in May 2019. This year’s speech comes as the campaigns for the European elections start to take shape, but also in the period of intensive debate on the Commission’s proposals for the 2021-2027 Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF), which set out the Commission’s vision of the EU financing of policies during that period. The State of the Union debate now forms part of the process for the adoption of the annual Commission Work Programme and thus plays an important role in identifying major political priorities to be agreed in interinstitutional dialogue. This briefing is an update of an earlier one, of September 2017, by Eva-Maria Poptcheva. Briefing EN 16-12-2021 Source : © Union européenne, 2021 - PE 5
Major sporting events versus human rights: Parliament's position on the 1978 FIFA World Cup in Argentina and the 1980 Moscow Olympics Type de publicationBriefing Date 13-06-2018 Auteur SALM Christian Domaine politique Culture | Droits de l''homme Mot-clé Argentine | audition publique | droits de l'homme | débat parlementaire | histoire contemporaine | manifestation sportive | Parlement européen | Russie | résolution PE | URSS | violence politique Résumé Major sports events and politics are closely intertwined. Well-known historical examples of major sporting events that were used by regimes for political propaganda purposes are the 1978 FIFA World Cup in Argentina and the 1980 Summer Olympic Games in Moscow. The 1978 World Cup took place around two years after the Argentinian military regime's right-wing coup and its violent repression of critics, and was then the most political World Cup in the history of the International Federation of Association Football (Fédération Internationale de Football Association: FIFA). The 1980 Summer Olympic Games in Moscow were the first to take place in eastern Europe and the first to be held in a socialist country. In addition, the 1980 Summer Olympic Games unleashed a hitherto, in the history of major sporting events, unprecedented boycott by 60 countries, in protest against the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan in December 1979. The European Parliament's involvement in the debates on the political reaction to these two major sporting events is a largely unknown aspect of the history of the 1978 World Cup and the 1980 Summer Olympic Games. This Briefing will reconstruct these debates and the policy action that followed, based on new analysis of sources held in the Parliament's Historical Archives, and demonstrates that the EP's leitmotiv was the violation of human rights in both countries. Furthermore, the Briefing shows that these debates set the basis for the EP's current policy action when it comes to major sports events in countries with a poor track record of human rights.

Parliament also gave its consent to establishing the European Public Prosecutor's Office, following a procedure introduced under enhanced cooperation between 20 Member States. The Office is intended to cooperate closely with Eurojust in order to investigate and prosecute crimes against financial interests of the Union.

The invited experts provided an academic perspective on energy poverty landscapes in the European Union and presented results of two studies on energy poverty commissioned by the ITRE Committee.

In contrast to the US Constitution, the EU Treaties do not prescribe the EU State of the Union address given by the President of the European Commission. Rather, that was instigated with the 2010 Framework agreement between the European Parliament and the European Commission as part of the annual political and legislative programming of the Union. Four State of the Union speeches were delivered by President José Manuel Barroso between 2010 and 2013 during his second term as Commission President, marked mainly by the economic and financial crisis in the EU. The State of the Union speech by the President of the European Commission constitutes an important instrument for ex-ante accountability vis-à-vis Parliament but it is also aimed at rendering the definition of priorities at EU level more transparent and at communicating those priorities to citizens. The 2015 State of the Union speech by President Jean-Claude Juncker takes place in a decisive year for the European Union, marked by the Greek debt crisis, the asylum and immigration crisis as well as international geopolitical challenges. But the State of the Union debate is, for the first time, also set in the broader process of political agenda-setting that started with the 2014 elections to the European Parliament and the nomination of the 'lead candidates' for the Presidency of the Commission. The ensuing election of the President of the Commission by Parliament and the parliamentary hearings of the Commissioners-designate, as well as the adoption of the 2015 Commission Work Programme, led to a politically intense year, changing the context in which Juncker's first State of the Union address has now to be delivered.

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP): The US Congress’s Positions Type de publicationBriefing Date 09-09-2014 Auteur BIERBRAUER Elfriede | TROSZCZYNSKA VAN GENDEREN Wanda Domaine politique Affaires étrangères | Agriculture et développement rural | Commerce international | Droit de la propriété intellectuelle | Droit des contrats, droit commercial et droit des sociétés | Environnement | Industrie | Législation de l''Union: système et actes juridiques | Marché intérieur et union douanière | Politique sociale | Protection des consommateurs | Sécurité des aliments | Énergie Mot-clé accord de libre-échange | accès au marché | appellation d'origine | contrat public | débat parlementaire | libération des échanges | marché agricole de l'UE | négociation d'accord (UE) | politique énergétique | propriété intellectuelle | États- Unis Résumé The US Congress is mandated by the US Constitution to exercise a regulatory and oversight role in international trade. It also has a role to play in negotiating external trade agreements, exercising its oversight, legislative and advisory functions. To date, the Congress has played an active role in the negotiations on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), overseeing the negotiations, gathering the views of key stakeholders during hearings and events it has organised, and flagging issues it considers politically important.
