Friday 29 January 2021

The ECR Group in the European Parliament launched the European Tour on the Future of the European Union in December 2020. The tour takes the form of a series of live broadcasts from 15 European capitals, in which citizens of our Member States are consulted. The Future of Europe Conference, announced by the President of the Commission, is a challenge for all European political movements that do not share the Federalist vision. The so-called pro-European federalists tell us it is ‘more Europe or no Europe’.

The next stop will be a live broadcast from Sofia. In 2021, the tour will stop in major cities across the continent to discuss Europe’s Future with politicians, academics and civil society participants. Our events will be live streamed, sharing the vision of a Europe that does less, but does it better.

More information will be shared on our Social Media Channels and on our website: www.ecrthefuture.eu.
