Abstract

The European elections in 2019 sent two messages. Firstly, Europe is stronger than what its opponents thought it would be. Despite major challenges like Brexit and migration, the results of the election demonstrated strong European cohesion. Therefore, Europe was the true winner of the elections. Secondly, citizens demand a more proactive, responsive and accountable Union that provides concrete answers to major challenges, such as adaptation to climate change, sustainable growth, clean energy or social cohesion. Both, the new Commission and the Parliament got the message. They have committed to work more for a greener, more inclusive and more competitive Union. A Union that is there for their citizens and for the rest of the world. A Europe of solidarity and humanity.
