    Will conservatives re-take power in Germany ?

    Today Radio Schuman chews over the confidence vote in Germany, expected to hand a clear lead to the SPD’s conservative rivals, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and its Bavarian counterpart, the Christian Social Union (CSU), with Olivia Stroud, Euronews Berlin correspondent. Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s political future is precarious. His coalition government of Social Democrats and Greens has lacked a majority since the liberal FDP exited. On the international stage, Germany faces mounting challenges. The war in Ukraine continues unabated, Syria’s new coalition government is fragile, and Donald Trump’s return to the US presidency presents significant issues for Germany, the EU’s largest nation. Meanwhile, unprecedented political instability in France has left the Franco-German alliance—the engine of European integration—effectively stalled. What lies ahead for Germany? Why are conservatives poised to reclaim power, and what coalition could take shape? In the second segment of the podcast we look at the most important issues under discussion at today's foreign affairs council. In the last part of the show, Radio Schuman reveals the side jobs of some members of the European Parliament. Radio Schuman is hosted and produced by Maïa de la Baume, with journalist and production assistant Eleonora Vasques, audio editing by David Brodheim and Georgios Leivaditis. Music by Alexandre Jas.

  2. Georgia’s presidential election: another test for the country’s EU relations ?

    Georgia’s presidential election: another test for the country’s EU relations ?

    Georgia has recently experienced weeks of protests following parliamentary elections that secured a win for the ruling Georgian Dream party. In the aftermath, the party announced plans to suspend efforts to join the European Union. On Saturday, the country faces presidential elections, a development that could further destabilise the nation of 3.7 million people and potentially accelerate the government’s distancing from the EU. Although the presidency in Georgia is largely ceremonial, this election is significant as it marks the first time since the 2017 constitutional reforms that the president will be chosen by parliament rather than by popular vote. The current president, Salome Zourabichvili, represents the pro-EU opposition and has consistently criticised Georgian Dream for its increasingly authoritarian, anti-Western, and pro-Russian policies. Recently, Zourabichvili declared she does not recognise the results of the parliamentary elections and pledged to remain in office until new elections are held. Georgian Dream has nominated Mikheil Kavelashvili, a former soccer player with Eurosceptic views, as its presidential candidate. To gain deeper insight into the stakes of Saturday’s election and the current situation in Georgia, Radio Schuman spoke with Nuka Kekelia, our Euronews correspondent in Tbilisi. In the second segment of the podcast, we had a look at some details of a vote on human trafficking among EU ministers. In the last part of the show, Radio Schuman brings you the new code of conduct of the upcoming Eurovision.

  3. EU should focus on Syria’s political transition, not migration, says expert

    EU should focus on Syria’s political transition, not migration, says expert

    The European Union should prioritise establishing a viable political process in Syria, while the situation in the country and the prospects for refugees remain uncertain, a senior Middle East expert at the Italian think tank Istituto Affari Internazionali told Euronews in an interview with Radio Schuman. Since the fall of Bashar al Assad's regime, the EU has carefully calibrated its reactions to developments in Syria, avoiding triumphalism or pessimism. Since 2011, the EU has imposed sanctions on members of Assad's regime, including asset freezes and travel bans, while remaining the largest provider of humanitarian aid in Syria. However, the bloc now faces challenges in responding to the volatile situation involving a new coalition it considers a terrorist group. Some EU countries, such as Austria, have suspended asylum claims for Syrians and even proposed deportations. The Italian institute's Maria Luisa Fantappiè said these actions are premature. In the second part of the program, we took a quick look at the Brussels agenda, highlighting key discussions among newly elected European Commissioners and an upcoming vote by EU diplomats. In the last segment of the show, Radio Schuman reveals what the busiest airport in Europe - spoiler alert: a non-EU capital leads the ranking...
