Nach der Wahl: Impact of the German elections on the EU

Brandweerkantine, Capucijnenstraat 21, Maastricht
16:00 – 19:00
Gratis

Germany’s decision and Europe’s future

Germany’s federal elections are around the corner, and the results promise to be pivotal not just for Germany but for the whole EU. With Europe’s biggest economy shrinking and far-right parties questioning its role in the EU, this election feels like a crossroads. What happens next could impact the country’s spending and decision-making when it comes to key topics like migration, foreign policy and the war and Ukraine.

Develop post-election scenarios

Curious about what this all means for the future of Europe? Let’s figure it out together. Join us for “Nach der Wahl: Impact of the German elections on Europe” hosted by Studio Europa Maastricht and supported by Duitsland Instituut Amsterdam. Together with Dutch and German experts, we’ll break down the results, discuss what they mean for Germany’s position on key topics, like migration, security and economy, and explore how Brussels might respond.

This is your chance to join the conversation, share your thoughts, and hear fresh perspectives on the big questions facing Germany and the EU.
