Evropská komise

The European Commission's preliminary proposal for new rules on stoves and boilers has provoked a strong reaction from their manufacturers and Czech politicians. The domestic debate is exceptional in this respect. Viktor Daněk, deputy director of the EUROPEUM Institute, commented for Deník N.

The new European Commission relies on a parliamentary majority that is much further to the right than before. This was shown by Wednesday's vote in which the European Parliament approved the composition of the new Commission. Also, members of the commission are dominated by members of right-wing political parties. Filip Křenek, an analyst at EUROPEUM Institute, commented for Hospodářské noviny on where the EU Commission wants to go.

Who will become the new Commissioner for the Czech Republic? And what topics should we focus on? According to the Deputy Director of EUROPEUM Institute Viktor Daněk, it is necessary to abandon the idea of a strong economic portfolio in the next European Commission. Instead, we should focus on gaining influence and respect through other areas, he commented for the weekly Respekt.
