It has barely been adopted and @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu is already walking back on the CSDDD. It’s almost as if she wasn’t EC president for the last 5 years.

The end of negotiations but also the start of a new process leading to the formal signature and conclusion of the agreement #EU #Mercosur #externalrelations #Article218TFEU
We have concluded the negotiations for the EU-Mercosur agreement.

It marks the beginning of a new story.

I now look forward to discussing it with EU countries.

This agreement will work for people and businesses.

More jobs. More choices. Shared prosperity.

Sinterklaas for adults*! Good discussions all around, and a lot of food for thought ahead of my research stay at EUI next month.

(* adults meaning here the niche group of people who love debating about what are and aren’t general principles of EU law who are also EU external relations scholars)
Start of the CLEER - Asser Institute Conference on General Principles in EU External Relations Law. First panel with Katja Ziegler, @aregnvsi.bsky.social, Jarne De Feyter, @tverellen.bsky.social and chaired by Ramses Wessel

*I* give a fuck about an Oxford comma, Vampire Weekend. This is why.
Today’s poem is called ‘The Importance of the Oxford Comma’.

Germany arguing today that the European Commission should be able to argue infringement actions based solely on a member state’s violation of EU fundamental values is a *huge* deal
Now Germany

The EU’s founding member, and by some distance its most powerful state, takes the floor — the room falls extra silent

The German agent speaks, significantly, on the most important issue: Article 2 TEU

It is justiciable, it can be invoked in a freestanding fashion

Highly significant!

@tverellen.bsky.social and I agree on the consequences of the judgment, and that generally, it ain't the best. Check out his blogpost to see where our interpretations diverge.
