Comitetul Economic si Social European
Comitetul de monitorizare UE-Rusia este organul intern al CESE responsabil de relațiile cu societatea civilă rusă.
De la începerea războiului împotriva Ucrainei de către autoritățile Federației Ruse, la 24 februarie 2022, societatea civilă liberă din Rusia a fost redusă la tăcere prin legi speciale și prin intensificarea represiunii, în timp ce mulți critici ai regimului au fost forțați să intre în exil.
În circumstanțele dificile actuale, CESE a decis să mențină ușa deschisă dialogului cu partea societății civile ruse care se declară împotriva războiului și se află pe teritoriul UE.
Acest lucru a condus la schimburi fructuoase de informații și opinii cu privire la modul în care ar trebui să se desfășoare relațiile bilaterale după încheierea războiului și revenirea la libertate și democrație în țară.

According to Eurostat figures, in May 2016 there were 4,197 million unemployed young people (18.6%) in the EU-28. Although an improvement on the previous year (20.3%), the figure remains appalling and shows that the threat of a "lost generation", which has loomed large since the beginning of the economic and financial crisis, is still hanging dangerously over Europe. Despite this, businesses across the EU are struggling to find young people with the skills they need.
