The purpose of aviation security is to prevent malicious acts against aircraft, passengers and crews. In response to the devastating 9/11 attacks, the EU established a set of security rules for safeguarding civil aviation. These rules are regularly updated to reflect evolving risks. Member States retain the right to apply more stringent measures. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

The European System of Financial Supervision is a system of EU agencies that aims to ensure consistent and coherent micro- and macro-prudential financial supervision in the EU. It includes the national supervisors, the three European supervisory authorities (EBA, ESMA and EIOPA) and the European Systemic Risk Board. There is a separate fact sheet (‘Financial Services Policy’) on the material rules that apply to the financial sector. After the ESFS had been created, the European Central Bank, as part of the Single Supervisory Mechanism, was appointed to directly supervise the largest banks within the Banking Union (2.5.5). For the material rules that apply to the financial sector, see the fact sheet on the EU financial services policy (2.5.13). Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

In her mission letter, the Commission President had requested Commissioner Albuquerque to establish a structured dialogue with the competent committee in the European Parliament. This is the first such dialogue to take place in the ECON Committee which is the competent committee for most files entrusted to the Commissioner for Financial Services and the Savings and Investments Union. The present briefing reviews the input received from the Commissioner for this exchange of views (i.e., her 2025 Annual Progress Report on Simplification, Implementation and Enforcement); the briefing also discusses several topical issues in the portfolio of Commissioner Albuquerque.

This study quantifies the impact of geopolitical risk on euro area banks using the 2025 EU-wide stress test, the first to include an explicit geopolitical scenario. Comparing outcomes with earlier stress tests, we find that geopolitical shocks measurably erode capital ratios, with smaller and less diversified banks most affected and considerable heterogeneity across countries. The results highlight how stress testing can capture structural vulnerabilities and inform supervisory responses through Pillar 2 requirements and Systemic Risk Buffers within the Banking Union framework.

Geopolitical tensions have emerged as a major source of macro-financial instability, with conflicts, sanctions, and global rivalries introducing risks that differ from traditional credit or market shocks. These events are difficult to anticipate and propagate through financial markets, the real economy, and operational channels, often amplifying into systemic consequences. Recent research shows that banks reallocate rather than withdraw—cutting cross-border lending but maintaining affiliate activity—while capital requirements calculated at consolidated level may transmit foreign shocks to domestic credit supply. Stronger capital buffers cushion these effects. Overall, major geopolitical shocks raise funding costs, weaken bank stability, and disrupt financial infrastructure, underscoring the need for robust governance, releasable buffers, scenario-based supervision, more coordinated micro and macro prudential regulation, and overall strengthened international coordination.

Donald Trump annonce vouloir relancer les essais nucléaires aux États-Unis. Une déclaration floue, qui laisse planer l’incertitude sur la nature des tests visés. Le pays n’a pas fait exploser de bombe atomique depuis 1992. Plusieurs experts et élus américains s’interrogent sur la pertinence de cette décision.

This report, commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Justice, Civil Liberties and Institutional Affairs at the request of the Committee on Legal Affairs (JURI), examines the use of AI techniques to support monitoring the application of EU Law. First an overview is provided of the state-of-the-art AI solutions used in application of law. Then AI applications in the legislative process are considered, from pre-enactment information analysis, impact forecasting and public engagement, to drafting support and monitoring impacts and compliance. AI in monitoring the implementation of EU law is then analysed, considering both existing applications and prospects for new AI technologies. First the transposition of directives is considered. The application of binding provisions is then addressed, having regard to implementing rules, judicial decisions, administrative action, and social behaviour. Finally potential contributions of AI to a principled approach to EU law is examined, for consistent interpretation and the respect of fundamental rights and principles. Recommendations are finally proposed on using AI to make monitoring more accurate and efficient.). Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

The Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act), adopted in June 2024, is the world’s first comprehensive regulatory framework for AI. It sits at the centre of the EU’s broader digital rulebook, alongside the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Data Act, the Digital Services Act (DSA), the Digital Markets Act (DMA), the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), and the NIS2 Directive. Together, these laws aim to promote safety, trust, and competitiveness in Europe’s digital economy. However, questions arise about how they interact and whether their combined effect strengthens or burdens the EU’s AI ecosystem. The full study examines how the AI Act interrelates with other EU digital instruments and how their cumulative obligations affect innovation, coherence, and competitiveness in Europe’s AI market.This AAG was prepared at the request of the ITRE Committee.

This study explores how the AI Act relates to various other crucial pieces of EU digital legislation, such as the GDPR, the Data Act and the Cyber Resilience Act. It assesses overlaps and gaps between these acts, and shows that, while each of them is individually well targeted, their interplay creates significant regulatory complexity. Finally, it also provides reflections and suggestions for possible evolutions of the AI Act, and of EU digital legislation as a whole, keeping in mind the objective of ensuring that Europe can establish a competitive AI industry. This study was prepared at the request of the ITRE Committee. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

Chile will hold presidential and congressional elections on 16 November 2025, with a possible runoff between the two best placed presidential candidates on 14 December, if no candidate secures the absolute majority in the first round. The two most promising candidates according to the latest polls are Jeannette Jara, from the Communist Party, and far-right candidate José Antonio Kast from the Republican Party. Crime and immigration are among the top issues that dominate the election campaign, even though Chile remains one of the safest countries in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Since the Estallido Social, the 2019 2020 social uprising, which brought left-wing incumbent Gabriel Boric to the presidency in 2022, there has been a trend of polarisation in Chilean politics. The 2021 elections resulted in a highly fragmented and diverse Congress with no coalition winning a clear majority of seats. From the EU perspective, in particular because of its rich natural resources and critical raw materials, Chile will be of strategic importance in the years to come. The recently signed Advanced Framework Agreement (AFA) between the EU and Chile (provisional application as from 1 June 2025), including the Interim Trade Agreement (ITA), which entered into force on 1 February 2025, are important instruments to realise the potential of the EU-Chile partnership.

Following the entry into force of the Treaty of Rome, Member States’ agricultural policies were replaced by intervention mechanisms at Community level. The foundations of the common agricultural policy (CAP) have remained unchanged since the Treaty of Rome, with the exception of rules relating to the decision-making procedure. The Treaty of Lisbon recognised codecision as the ‘ordinary legislative procedure’ for the CAP, in place of the consultation procedure. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP
