ENC Analysis – EPC Summit: From Empty Chairs to the War in Israel
The European Neighborhood Council (ENC) released a new analysis on the European Political Community (EPC) Summit held in Granada on 5 October 2023.
This article is written by Samuel Doveri Vesterbye, ENC Managing Director, and Denis Cenusa, Associated Expert at the Eastern Europe Studies Centre and Think Tank “Expert-Grup”.
The European Political Community (EPC) Summit continues to achieve its main objective of fostering dialogue among more than 40 European countries regardless of whether they are EU members, despite the evolution of the EU’s EPC-related ambitions having produced rather limited results. In this ENC Analysis, the authors examine the expectations and the outcomes of the EPC-Granada Summit by focusing on the “empty chair crisis”, the war in Israel, connectivity, security, enlargement, migration, and the war in Ukraine.
