The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership is the biggest and most ambitious free trade agreement currently being negotiated by the European Union. Economists believe that an agreement with the USA will be advantageous for both the European Union and the USA, and the negative effects of trade liberalisation will be insignificant. This publication is a summary of the debate on "What development opportunities does the TTIP bring to Europe?" that was held in Sopot on 2 October 2014 as part of the European Forum for New Ideas.

ELi ja Venemaa järelevalvekomitee on komiteesisene organ, mis vastutab suhete eest Venemaa kodanikuühiskonnaga.
Pärast seda, kui Vene Föderatsiooni võimud alustasid sõjategevust Ukraina vastu 24. veebruaril 2022, vaigistati Venemaa vaba kodanikuühiskond eriseaduste ja laienevate repressioonidega ning paljud režiimi kritiseerijad on sunnitud eksiili.
Praeguses raskes olukorras on komitee otsustanud hoida ukse dialoogipidamiseks avatuna ELi territooriumil asuva ELi territooriumil viibiva Venemaa kodanikuühiskonna sõjavastase osaga.
See on soodustanud viljakat teabe- ja arvamuste vahetust selle üle, kuidas peaksid kahepoolsed suhted kujunema pärast sõda ning riigi naasmist vabaduse ja demokraatia teele.
