The Larger the EU Becomes, the More Imperative it Is to Respect the Identities of the European Nations

Budapest
„If I look at the rather miserable state of European politics today, I see many reasons for doubt or even for despair. I know however that sometimes miracles happen. When God wants to shape our history, he needs however at least a small number of men of wisdom and hope. Will He find these men? Are we willing to be these men? The answer to this question will define the future of our European home.” – Rocco Buttiglione, professor of political science and one of the keynote speakers of the conference pointed out.

The autonomy of Europe will be increased if Trump is elected to president

“Historically, Europe has had always more room to manouver when Republican Adminsitrations were in the White House. Furthermore, because of his unique approach, if Donald Trump is elected to president, the European cooperation would need to take problems into their own hands” – Matthieu Grandpierron, pointed out in the Budapest Lectures series. The head of the Political Science department at ICES-Vendée Catholic University talked about the questions and challenges of the European strategic autonomy with Lénárd Sándor, head of the Center for International Law.
