MENA Stories: Episode 6

As the European Parliament elections approach, the stakes are higher than ever. From June 6th to 9th, nearly 400 million Europeans in 27 countries will head to polling stations to determine those who’ll sit in the European Parliament for the next five years, and consequently the composition of the next European Commission. But European elections are not exclusively about Europe, not anymore.

Beyond European borders, how could the EP vote redefine relations with the MENA region? What lessons can be learned from the past? And what strategies should the EU adopt to build a more sustainable and effective partnership?

This is MENA Stories, the EST Observatory EU-MENA's podcast series that uncovers and narrates facts and events from the region.
