This time, Annette van Soest, together with our regular guest Derk Marseille, correspondent in Berlin for BNR Nieuwsradio and redactienieuws.nl, looks at next month’s European elections with a German lens. What does the political landscape look like in the country that has such a major impact on the course of the EU? What themes are at play and what is the country’s political and economic position?
Tips and references from this episode:
– Derk recommends ‘Erinnerungen’, the memoirs of Wolfgang Schauble
– Annette recommends the Maastricht Debate again
