Long-term forecasting of the future of any nation on earth is a difficult job. This applies to every nation on the planet. But try to picture figuring out where the European Union, a massive sleeping geopolitical giant, is headed in the future. A poll conducted by the European Parliament found that 44 percent of people in Europe are clueless about how the European Union functions. There is not a shred of doubt in anyone’s mind that the EU is an incredibly complicated bureaucracy. Its institutional architecture, decision-making methods, and regulatory regulations are complicated, complex, and poorly understood.<\/p>\n
The European Union, which comprises 27 member states, is a semi-sovereign body that is stuck in geopolitical limbo. The EU is too weak to be acknowledged as one big state, but too strong to be disregarded as merely a free trade institute.<\/p>\n
It is not surprising that navigating the EU can feel like being lost in a maze due to its complexity. However, Suleyman Aslami, who formerly served as the Head of Office for MEP Samira Rafaela, is in agreement that the European Union ought to have a greater presence on social media and investigate methods that will make choices understandable by not only to older but also to younger audiences.<\/p>\n
So, what exactly goes on behind closed doors, why should you vote even though the EU seems like a giant, and is it the EU’s fault that it is hard to understand what the EU actually is?<\/p>\n
This podcast will consist of rambling with two guests about how mysterious the EU is.<\/p>\n
