Six months after last spring’s parliamentary elections in Hungary, which aimed to renew the 199 seats of the National Assembly and appoint the new head of government, PromethEUs revisits this political turning point through the eyes of Attila K., an economics student. With hindsight, this interview offers a balanced look at the post-election landscape and the defeat of Viktor Orbán by the pro-European Péter Magyar. PromethEUs offers a discussion on the driving forces behind this political shift: the impact of inflation on daily life, fatigue with corruption, and the choice of re-anchoring within Europe rather than growing closer to Moscow. In a context where nearly €20 billion in EU funds had been frozen by Brussels over rule-of-law breaches, and where Budapest until recently blocked an aid package of €60 to €70 billion for Ukraine, this exchange sheds light on the expectations of young people, the reshaping of the media landscape, and the necessary institutional safeguards within the European Union.

Confronted with the military escalation in the Middle East and Washington's strategic decoupling, the European Union finds itself at a critical turning point. In this interview with PromethEUs, Lieutenant Commander Guillaume Bucherer, desk officer at the Joint Staff of the Armed Forces (Military International Relations Division - EU Bureau), analyzes the internal fault lines among the 27, the realistic risks of the conflict expanding, and the urgent need for Europe to break free from its dependencies to build its own industrial and military sovereignty.

La formación, negociación y adopción final del Nuevo Pacto sobre Migración y Asilo (2020-2024) representan un momento crucial en la historia de la integración europea, marcando el paso de un enfoque normativo basado en la armonización y la solidaridad obligatoria a un enfoque pragmático, orientado a la seguridad y flexible, dictado por la necesidad política de contener el auge de las fuerzas populistas y nacionalistas. Este informe, basado en un análisis exhaustivo de textos legislativos, declaraciones políticas y dinámicas institucionales, demuestra que la arquitectura del Pacto es intrínsecamente una respuesta a las líneas rojas trazadas por los gobiernos iliberales (Grupo de Visegrado) y los influyentes partidos de extrema derecha dentro de Estados miembros clave, como Italia, Francia y Alemania.
