Article 22 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) establishes the right of mobile EU citizens – i.e. those residing in a Member State of which they are not nationals – to stand as candidates in elections to the European Parliament and municipal elections in the Member State of residence under the same conditions as nationals of that Member State. In two closely linked judgments, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) ruled that this included mobile EU citizens' right to join political parties in the Member State of their residence.

Natural hazards, armed conflicts, human-induced or amplified disasters, and often, complex crises – a combination of these may result in humanitarian emergencies. Meeting complex humanitarian needs, especially in resource-scarce environments, requires intervention beyond national capacities. Therefore, broader humanitarian action is essential to save lives, preserve the health and dignity of victims, assist recovery, and improve prevention, preparedness and resilience. This action encompasses humanitarian assistance, its financing, advocacy, policy and legal frameworks, coordination, monitoring and evaluation efforts. The main international humanitarian efforts are run by the United Nations, facilitating resource mobilisation, coordination and consistency of humanitarian action. However, regional and bilateral actions are equally important, especially given that, due to growing humanitarian needs and scarce financial resources, the humanitarian system is facing a severe funding crisis, compromising the delivery of assistance. The EU is an important humanitarian donor and actor, with its toolbox consisting of humanitarian assistance, both through financing and operational means; international advocacy for more coordinated, efficient and prominent humanitarian assistance and increased resource mobilisation; support for the respect of international humanitarian law; and policy measures, most notably humanitarian exceptions to sanctions. Since the creation of its humanitarian office in 1992, the EU has provided needs-based humanitarian assistance to more than 110 countries and territories, in line with the principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality and independence and with a focus on gender-, age- and environment-sensitive approaches, among other things. The European Parliament is significantly involved in the EU's humanitarian action. As a co-legislator and a budgetary authority, as well as through its resolutions, diplomacy, outreach and numerous other activities, the Parliament shapes EU humanitarian policy, decides on the financing, and brings important issues into the spotlight.

Sweden aims to achieve climate neutrality by 2045 (see trajectory in Figure 1) and to further reduce its emissions in sectors covered by the Effort-sharing Regulation. In 2023, Sweden accounted for 0.16 % of the EU's net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It achieved a net emissions reduction of 72.6 % from 2005 to 2023, well above the EU average reduction of 30.5 %. In the same period, the country reduced emissions covered by the EU emissions trading system by 26.5 %. Sweden's land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sector has consistently performed as a large carbon sink. In August 2023, Sweden updated its recovery and resilience plan and included a REPowerEU chapter. The plan dedicates 43.6 % of total funding to the green transition. Sweden submitted a draft updated national energy and climate plan (NECP) in July 2023. The European Commission assessed it, making recommendations for the final updated NECP, which Sweden submitted in June 2024 as one of four EU countries to meet the deadline. A 2023 Eurobarometer survey showed that 73 % of Swedes, against a 46 % EU average, find climate change to be one of the four most serious problems facing the world. While 60 % consider tackling climate change a personal responsibility, this task is also seen as the responsibility of national governments (80 %), the EU (74 %), and business and industry (55 %).

In 2023, Bulgaria accounted for around 1.2 % of the EU's net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and achieved a net emissions reduction of 22.6 % compared with 2005. The country's total emissions decreased by 27.4 % between 2005 and 2023, while its net carbon removals in the land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sector declined by 41.3 % (Figure 1). Emissions from sectors covered by the effort-sharing legislation decreased by 3 % since 2005 and were higher than those from sectors under the EU emissions trading system (ETS), which fell by 43.4 %. In 2023, Bulgaria still had the most carbon intensive economy in the EU; the European Commission considers that the country's green transition could be slowed significantly by the lack of long-term climate commitments, heavy dependence on coal, and the high energy intensity of its economy. Bulgaria submitted its draft updated national energy and climate plan (NECP) in February 2024. The Commission assessed it and made recommendations for the final plan, which was due in June 2024. In a 2023 survey, only 22 % of Bulgarians, compared with a 46 % EU average, identified climate change as of the four most serious problems facing the world. Most expect national government (48 %) and/or the EU (39 %) to tackle climate change. Only 17 % find it to be a personal responsibility.

Poland does not have a national climate law or a strategy to become climate-neutral. However, it is bound by the European Climate Law and other EU legislation that obliges Member States to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in some sectors. Poland accounts for 10.7 % of the EU's net GHG emissions, and achieved a net emissions reduction of 9.3 % in the years 2005 to 2023 – significantly lower than the EU average of 30.5 % over the same period (Figure 1). Emissions under the EU emissions trading system (ETS), covering mainly energy-intensive sectors, aviation and maritime transport, decreased by 30 %. Carbon removals in the LULUCF (land use, land-use change and forestry) sectors went down by 28.2 %. In the effort-sharing sectors (domestic transport without aviation, buildings, agriculture, small industry and waste) increased by 9 %. In August 2023, Poland updated its recovery and resilience plan and introduced a REPowerEU chapter. It submitted its draft updated national energy and climate plan (NECP) on 1 March 2024 (only the scenario with existing measures). The European Commission assessed the partially updated plan on 26 April 2024, and deemed the existing measures insufficient to meet the 2030 targets. In a 2023 Eurobarometer survey, 28 % of Poles, compared with a 46 % EU average, identified climate change as one of the four most serious problems facing the world. Almost half expect national government (46 %) and/or the EU (43 %) to tackle climate change, while 17 % find it to be a personal responsibility.

Belgium aims to reach climate neutrality by 2050 (see trajectory in Figure 1). In 2023, Belgium accounted for 3.5 % of the EU's net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and reduced its net emissions by 29.3 % between 2005 and 2023, just below the EU average reduction of 30.5 % over the same period. Also during that period, the country reduced emissions covered by the EU emissions trading system (ETS) by 46.7 %. Belgium's land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sector has consistently performed as a small carbon sink. In July 2023 Belgium updated its recovery and resilience plan and included a REPowerEU chapter. The plan dedicates 51 % of total funding to the green transition. Belgium submitted a draft updated national energy and climate plan (NECP) in December 2023, to be assessed by the European Commission. In October 2024, the Commission launched an infringement procedure against Belgium and 12 other Member States that missed the June 2024 deadline for submitting the final updated NECP. A 2023 Eurobarometer survey showed that 49 % of Belgians, against an EU average of 46 %, find climate change to be one of the four most serious problems facing the world. Most expect the EU (65 %) and/or business and industry (52 %) and national governments (49 %) to tackle climate change, while 40 % find it to be their personal responsibility.

Spain aims to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 (see trajectory in Figure 1). In 2023, Spain accounted for 8.2 % of the EU's net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and achieved a net emissions reduction of 39.3 % in the years 2005 to 2023, above the EU average reduction of 30.5 %. During the same period, the country reduced emissions covered by the EU emissions trading system (ETS) by 57.5 %. Spain's land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sector has consistently performed as a carbon sink, despite an increasing number of forest fires. In June 2023, Spain updated its recovery and resilience plan and included a REPowerEU chapter. The plan dedicates 39.9 % of total funding to the green transition. Spain submitted a draft updated national energy and climate plan (NECP) on 13 July 2023. The European Commission assessed it and made recommendations for the final updated NECP, which was published on 26 September 2024. In a 2023 Eurobarometer survey, 48 % of Spaniards, compared with an EU average of 46 %, consider climate change to be one of the four most serious problems facing the world. Most expect the EU (56 %), national governments (56 %) and business and industry (54 %) to tackle climate change, while 36 % find it to be a personal responsibility.

On 1 June 2023, the European Commission presented a legislative package to modernise and reinforce maritime rules on safety and pollution prevention. It contains proposals to revise five legal acts, including the Port State Control Directive (PSCD). The aim is to update them to bring them into line with the requirements of the International Maritime Organization and the regional organisation for port state control, set up under the Paris Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). The proposal refers to the inspection of foreign ships in national ports, to verify that the ships' condition complies with international regulations, including for crews. The PSCD would be extended to cover additional international rules such as new conventions on ballast water and removal of wrecks, and updated rules under the Paris MoU. It would give more importance to ships' environmental performance in determining their risk profile, and boost Member States' capacity to detect and address cases of non-compliance with standards and rules on safety, environmental protection and pollution prevention. The scope would be extended to fishing vessels. The European Parliament's Committee on Transport and Tourism (TRAN) adopted its report on 7 December 2023. On 27 February 2024, Parliament and Council reached a provisional agreement, which TRAN endorsed on 20 March 2024. On 10 April 2024, Parliament adopted the provisional agreement in plenary, concluding its first reading. On 18 November 2024, Council adopted Parliament's first-reading position. The final act was signed by the Council president and the Parliament president on 27 November 2024. The revised directive was published in the Official Journal of the EU on 16 December 2024 and will enter into force 20 days from this date. Source : © European Union, 2024 - EP

On 9 December 2022, 20 years after the signature of the EU-Chile Association Agreement in 2002, the EU and Chile reached an agreement in principle on a new EU-Chile Advanced Framework Agreement, which comprises modernised trade and political and cooperation pillars. Negotiations were launched in November 2017, based on a Council negotiating mandate, which was the first-ever to have been published prior to the start of negotiations. Although the trade pillar had operated smoothly and led to an expansion of bilateral trade in goods and services and investment, Chile and the EU agreed to broaden and deepen it to unlock untapped potential, break new ground and keep pace with new trade and investment patterns in a global competitive environment that has fundamentally changed with the growing global footprint of countries such as China. As the EU-Chile Advanced Framework Agreement (AFA) comprises provisions falling under both the EU's exclusive competence and shared competence with EU Member States, an EU-Chile interim trade agreement (iTA) was copied from the EU-Chile AFA to undergo an EU-only ratification process, while the EU-Chile AFA including its trade pillar will also have to be ratified by all EU Member States in accordance with their constitutional requirements. The former will expire, once the latter has entered into force. The agreements were signed on 13 December2023. On 29 February 2024, Parliament provided its consent to both. On 18 March 2024, the Council endorsed the EU-Chile iTA, which ends the EU-level ratification. Chile finalised the ratification of both agreements on 13 November 2024. Fourth edition.

Cohesion policy plays a crucial role in promoting economic, social and territorial cohesion among the EU Member States' regions. Despite efforts to reduce regional inequalities, challenges persist. This study identifies three main challenges in addressing regional inequalities. First, there is a lack of coordination and coherence between cohesion policy and other policies. Second, positive impacts of cohesion policy are not distributed evenly across regions. Third, the growing number of instruments leads to increased administrative complexity. A coordinated policy approach could be more effective in tackling regional inequalities. This is explored through four policy scenarios and an assessment of their impacts. Finally, the study investigates the cost of non-Europe, that is, the impact of taking no further action at EU level to reduce regional inequalities. Source : © European Union, 2024 - EP

Ever since the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) became applicable in May 2018, the European Parliament and civil society organisations have been flagging up deficits in its enforcement, and pushing for better implementation. To address the situation, in July 2023 the European Commission tabled a proposal aimed at improving GDPR enforcement. The proposal seeks to support the smooth functioning and timely completion of enforcement procedures in cross-border cases. To this end, the Commission suggests harmonising parties' procedural rights, streamlining and frontloading cooperation among supervisory authorities, and detailing the GDPR's dispute resolution mechanism. Views on the Commission proposal diverge. Digital rights organisations advocate for enhanced complainant rights, an equal say for the lead supervisory authority and the supervisory authorities concerned (CSAs) on the substance of enforcement decisions, a stronger role for the European Data Protection Board (EDPB), new mechanisms to facilitate cross-country enforcement, and stricter deadlines. Industry and allied organisations favour increased transparency for the parties under investigation, a stronger role for the lead supervisory authority and lesser roles for the supervisory authorities concerned and the EDPB. Parliament adopted its first-reading position during its plenary session of 10 April 2024. It insisted on strengthening the role of complainants, CSAs and the EDPB. The Council followed with its position on 18 June 2024, largely going in the same direction as Parliament, but using different regulatory approaches and staying closer to the Commission proposal.

Austria's national recovery and resilience plan (NRRP) was updated on 9 November 2023 with the introduction of a REPowerEU chapter. The plan now totals €4 187 million, of which €3 961million are financed through Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) grants. The difference is financed through national resources. To implement the plan, Austria is leveraging further amounts beyond EU support from the national budget. Austria has requested the maximum amount of grants available (non-repayable support); it did not opt for requesting loans (possible until 31 August 2023). The Austrian economy has been in a slowdown since the end of the second quarter of 2022. There has been a lack of expansionary impetus both domestically and abroad, leading to a decline in economic output of 0.8 % in 2023. Economic indicators do not suggest an economic recovery for 2024 either – a moderate upturn in private consumption is unlikely to fully cushion a prolonged recession in industry and construction. Against this backdrop, Austrian gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to stagnate in 2024, according to recent estimates. From 2025, industrial output is expected to rise again slightly, restoring positive GDP growth (+1.5%). In Austria's NRRP, 56 % of EU resources will be allocated to the green transition, and (excluding the REPowerEU chapter) 36 % to the digital transformation – far more than the minimum targets set by the RRF Regulation (37 % and 20 % respectively). The plan includes a significant number of reforms with the potential to support lasting structural changes in other areas, such as the primary healthcare system, less red tape for business, and modernisation of the public administration. By the end of November 2024, Austria had received €1.19 billion: €700 million (net of pre-financing) for the first payment, based on the achievement of 44 milestones and targets, and the rest as pre-financing.

Although origin labelling for food cannot be directly linked to a product's intrinsic quality, consumers are increasingly interested in local food systems and in short supply chains. While the easiest way to convey origin information is through labelling, European Union (EU) law requires the display of such information only for a limited number of food products. EU consumers and consumer groups have long advocated greater transparency on food product origins. In force since December 2014, the EU regulation on the provision of food information to consumers updated and harmonised food labelling requirements, set harmonised rules for the presentation of allergen information and tightened up the rules to prevent misleading practices. The regulation allows EU countries to adopt additional national measures concerning the mandatory labelling of food products, as long as these are justified by reasons specifically defined in the regulation. Indicating the country of origin is currently mandatory for certain food products, such as fresh fruit and vegetables, fishery products, honey, olive oil, eggs, beef and beef products, unprocessed meat of swine, sheep, goat and poultry and the primary ingredient of a food when it differs from the origin given for the product as a whole. In the absence of EU rules, some EU countries have enacted national legislation requiring mandatory origin labelling for certain categories of foods. As part of its 'farm to fork' strategy, adopted in 2020, the Commission intended to revise existing rules to extend the mandatory indication of origin to more categories of food products. However, such a proposal never emerged, and if or when it will be put forward remains unclear. Source : © European Union, 2024 - EP

The UK's withdrawal from the EU on 31 January 2020 was followed by a period of tense relations, mainly around the issues concerning implementation of the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland. The economic consequences of Brexit started to materialise. In 2023, the new UK government of Rishi Sunak agreed with the EU on the Windsor Framework, designed to find solutions to issues related to the implementation of the Protocol. A period of gradually improving relations ensued. Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine made it clear that the EU and UK are facing a common threat and need to coordinate their policies better. Progress has been made in an increasing number of fields, from defence, through trade, research and innovation, to competition policies. With the change of leadership in the UK to a Labour government and the emergence of a new political cycle in the EU for 2024-2029, the reset of EU-UK relations has increasingly been gaining momentum. While the UK has made clear that it will not return to the single market or customs union, the government of Keir Starmer has started to engage diplomatically with the EU, with a reset of the relationship as its priority. Both sides are interested mainly in a security and defence pact, the scope of which remains to be defined. The EU's interests include improving mobility into the UK (including youth mobility), maintaining fisheries access, and ensuring rights of EU citizens in the UK. There are also a number of EU programmes that the UK may be considering joining, to mutual benefit, once financial contributions have been negotiated. The negotiations are set to intensify in early 2025. The re-election of Donald Trump may complicate these negotiations, as it is likely to bring disruption, and its effects remain to be seen. The expert community sees possibilities for stronger cooperation on a range of issues such as climate and energy policies, resilience of supply chains, approximation of laws and building the defence industrial base. The European Parliament has been calling in numerous resolutions for closer cooperation in many areas not covered by the current arrangements. Source : © European Union, 2024 - EP

This infographic provides insight into the economic performance of China compared with the European Union (EU) and examines the trade dynamics between them. In 2023, while China's GDP growth rate has returned to increase against the previous year, Europe's GDP growth rate continues to decline and stands at 0.6 percent. Both countries' inflation rates are down from the prior year, but Europe's rate remains at 6.3 percent while China's is at 0.2 percent. Over the last decade, trade between the EU and China has generally risen. Nevertheless, EU imports of goods from China saw a significant drop after 2022. The EU continues to be China's primary trade partner, while China ranks as the EU's second-largest partner. Source : © European Union, 2024 - EP
